We review the effective field theory (EFT) approach to gravitational dynamics. We focus on
extended objects in long-wavelength backgrounds and gravitational wave emission from …

Fluid lipid membranes can mediate forces between particles bound to them: A local
deformation of the surface geometry created by some object spreads to distant regions …

Recent experiments suggest that membranes of living cells are tuned close to a miscibility
critical point in the two-dimensional Ising universality class. We propose that one role for this …

Sources of long wavelength radiation are naturally described by an effective field theory
(EFT) which takes the form of a multipole expansion. Its action is given by a derivative …

An approach based on effective field theory (EFT) is discussed and applied to the problem of
surface-mediated interactions between rigid inclusions of circular footprint on a membrane …

By means of a multipolar expansion, we study analytically and numerically the interaction, in
tensionless membranes, between multiple identical curvature-inducing membrane …

This chapter summarizes several approaches combining theory, simulation, and experiment
that aim for a better understanding of phenomena in lipid bilayers and membrane protein …

Up–down asymmetric inclusions impose a local, spontaneous curvature onto an elastic
membrane. When several of them are inserted in the same membrane, they feel effective …

The behavior of a lipid membrane on mesoscopic scales is captured unusually accurately by
its geometrical degrees of freedom. Indeed, the membrane geometry is, very often, a direct …
