Recent decades have seen a rise in the use of physics methods to study different societal
phenomena. This development has been due to physicists venturing outside of their …

A review is given on the foundations and applications of non-Hermitian classical and
quantum physics. First, key theorems and central concepts in non-Hermitian linear algebra …

Traffic waves are phenomena that emerge when the vehicular density exceeds a critical
threshold. Considering the presence of increasingly automated vehicles in the traffic stream …

We study the statistical properties of active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particles (AOUPs). In this
simplest of models, the Gaussian white noise of overdamped Brownian colloids is replaced …

In crowd scenarios, predicting trajectories of pedestrians is a complex and challenging task
depending on many external factors. The topology of the scene and the interactions …

Traffic in an urban network becomes congested once there is a critical number of vehicles in
the network. To improve traffic operations, develop new congestion mitigation strategies …

Active particles that are self-propelled by converting energy into mechanical motion
represent an expanding research realm in physics and chemistry. For micrometer-sized …

This paper comprehensively reviews recent developments in modeling lane-changing
behavior. The major lane changing models in the literature are categorized into two groups …

A critical phenomenon is an intrinsic feature of traffic dynamics, during which transition
between isolated local flows and global flows occurs. However, very little attention has been …

Statistical physics has proven to be a fruitful framework to describe phenomena outside the
realm of traditional physics. Recent years have witnessed an attempt by physicists to study …
