To understand the dynamical and conformational properties of deformable active agents in
porous media, we computationally investigate the dynamics of linear chains and rings made …

A collection of rings made of active Brownian particles (ABPs) for different packing fractions
and activities is investigated using computer simulations. We show that active rings display …

Active fluctuations play a significant role in the structure and dynamics of biopolymers (eg
chromatin and cytoskeletal proteins) that are instrumental in the functioning of living cells …

We consider inhomogeneous polymers driven by energy-consuming active processes which
encode temporal patterns of athermal kicks. We find that such temporal excitation programs …

We propose an extension of the existing model describing a biomolecular reaction such as
protein folding or ligand binding which is usually visualised as the barrier crossing of a …

By means of Brownian dynamics simulations we study the steady-state dynamic properties
of a flexible active polymer in a poor solvent condition. Our results show that the effective …

We study the dynamics of a tracer that is elastically coupled to active particles being kept at
two different temperatures, as a prototype of tracer dynamics in a non-equilibrium bath …

We explore the escape dynamics of active ring polymers confined in a cylindrical
nanochannel using Brownian dynamics. Our simulation results show that the escape time …

We use computer simulations to investigate the complex dynamics of a polymer, made of
active Brownian particles, inside a channel grafted internally with passive polymer chains …

In the past years, the amount of research on active matter has grown extremely rapidly, a fact
that is reflected in particular by the existence of more than 600 review articles on this topic …
