Self-assembled clusters of mutually repelling particles in confinement

P. D. S. de Lima, R. De La Cour, K. Gaff, J. M. de Araújo, S. J. Cox, M. S. Ferreira, and S. Hutzler

Phys. Rev. E 112, 044150 (2025) - Published 29 October, 2025

Mutually repelling particles form spontaneously ordered clusters when forced into confinement. With experiments and simulations, this work demonstrates that it is possible to induce particles of very different types to self-assemble into the same ordered geometric structure.

Hovering flight in flapping insects and hummingbirds: A natural real-time and stable extremum-seeking feedback system

Ahmed A. Elgohary and Sameh A. Eisa

Phys. Rev. E 112, 044412 (2025) - Published 22 October, 2025

A new study suggests that a simple feedback mechanism enables the steady hovering of flapping insects and hummingbirds.

Analytic theory of dropout regularization

Francesco Mori and Francesca Mignacco

Phys. Rev. E 112, 045301 (2025) - Published 1 October, 2025

Dropout is a widely used regularization technique in training neural networks for which dropout rates are typically selected heuristically. In order to develop a principled framework for understanding their impact on learning dynamics, the authors present an analytic theory of dropout in two-layer neural networks trained via online stochastic gradient descent.

Thermodynamic constraints and pseudotransition behavior in a one-dimensional waterlike system

F. F. Braz, S. M. de Souza, M. L. Lyra, and Onofre Rojas

Phys. Rev. E 112, 044144 (2025) - Published 24 October, 2025

A one-dimensional lattice model of a waterlike system, with van der Waals and hydrogen-bond interactions, shows sharp thermodynamic anomalies similar to a classical phase transition, despite the absence of a true transition. The authors also find that these anomalies behave differently in grand-canonical or fixed-density conditions.

Transition to chaos with conical billiards

Lara Braverman and David R. Nelson

Phys. Rev. E 112, 044221 (2025) - Published 21 October, 2025

A qualitative and quantitative analysis of the transition to chaos observed in a billiard system on the surface of cones is reported in this study. The results represent an advance in the multidisciplinary area going from mathematical physics to geometrical optics, and from the biophysics of microorganisms to the statistical physics of complexity and ergodicity.

Upper bound for the stability of Boolean networks

Venkata Sai Narayana Bavisetty, Matthew Wheeler, Reinhard Laubenbacher, and Claus Kadelka

Phys. Rev. E 112, 044310 (2025) - Published 24 October, 2025

The authors present a proof about upper bounds for the stability of basins of attraction in Boolean networks. They also demonstrate that coherence and basin entropy are negatively linearly related. The work is relevant for gene regulatory systems, which often use Boolean networks as models.

Folding lattice proteins confined on minimal grids using a quantum-inspired encoding

Anders Irbäck, Lucas Knuthson, and Sandipan Mohanty

Phys. Rev. E 112, 045302 (2025) - Published 1 October, 2025

This work reformulates protein folding as a quadratic unconstrained binary optimization problem and shows that even dense systems with steric clashes can be efficiently solved using either classical or hybrid quantum annealing. The authors validated their methods against exact solutions from exhaustive structure enumeration.

Dependence of the polymer adsorption transition on chain stiffness and surface interaction range: A partition-function-zero analysis

Mark P. Taylor and Jutta Luettmer-Strathmann

Phys. Rev. E 112, 045404 (2025) - Published 10 October, 2025

This paper addresses how polymer stiffness and the range of surface attraction determine the adsorption transition. Using partition function zeros from simulations of semiflexible polymer chains, it identifies three distinct scaling regimes and confirms predicted scaling laws across a broad parameter space.

Gigantic dynamical spreading and anomalous diffusion of jerky active particles

Hartmut Löwen

Phys. Rev. E 112, 045412 (2025) - Published 17 October, 2025

This work introduces an equation of motion to describe self-propelled particles which are dominated by a change in acceleration, termed a “jerk.” Depending upon parameters, the mean-squared displacement associated with this equation can show extremely large spreading. The authors also propose an experimental setup that can implement their “jerk” equation of motion.

Meysam Bagheri and Thorsten Pöschel

Phys. Rev. E 112, 045414 (2025) - Published 17 October, 2025

This paper considers a chain of spheres linked by liquid bridges and demonstrates how the rupture of a single bridge leads to rupture of the chain at multiple sites.

Force chain dynamics in a quasistatic granular pile

Benjamin Allen and Nicholas W. Hayman

Phys. Rev. E 112, 045416 (2025) - Published 20 October, 2025

Even when granular piles appear stable, they are in a fragile, nonequilibrium state, undergoing sporadic particle rearrangements and force-chain changes. The authors experimentally investigate particle stresses in quasi-two-dimensional grain piles over month-long time periods, unveiling grain-scale changes in the system that may underlie transitions into granular failure and creep.

Singular density correlations in chiral active fluids in three dimensions

Yuta Kuroda, Takeshi Kawasaki, and Kunimasa Miyazaki

Phys. Rev. E 112, 045426 (2025) - Published 27 October, 2025

Chiral active matter composed of particles that self-propel and self-rotate at a constant angular velocity has been extensively studied in two dimensions, but far less is known in three dimensions, where particles exhibit helical motion. This manuscript studies density fluctuations in a system of helical active swimmers. Numerical simulations, supported by a fluctuating hydrodynamic theory, show that helicity induces singular density correlations and hyperuniformity in the direction perpendicular to the torque, while giant density fluctuations emerge along the parallel direction.

Conformation and dynamics of active polymers with one end fixed

Song Wu, Jia-Xiang Li, and Yu-Qiang Ma

Phys. Rev. E 112, 045431 (2025) - Published 30 October, 2025

A simulation study of polar active polymers with a fixed end shows how the choice of the fixed point, either the tail or the head, leads to dramatically distinct conformational and dynamical behaviors. Active polymers with a fixed tail undergo nonuniform stretching, while those with a fixed head experience uniform compression.

Giant density fluctuations in locally hyperuniform states

Sara Dal Cengio, Romain Mari, and Eric Bertin

Phys. Rev. E 112, L042101 (2025) - Published 14 October, 2025

Ordered active matter is typically characterized by giant density fluctuations. Nonequilibrium absorbing phase transition can suppress fluctuations resulting in hyperuniform states. Here the authors present the interplay between these phenomena in a model of active nematics coupled to an absorbing phase transition, showing a crossover between enhancement and suppression of fluctuations emerging at different length scales.

Emerging crystallization in one dimension

Lila Bouzar and René Messina

Phys. Rev. E 112, L042105 (2025) - Published 21 October, 2025

For sufficiently high density, the pair distribution function $g (r)$ of the one-dimensional hard-sphere fluid shows a crossover in its decay from algebraic to exponential as $r$ increases. This crossover is interpreted as a signal of incipient solidlike order in one dimension, despite the absence of a true phase transition.

Beyond holography: The entropic quantum gravity foundations of anisotropic diffusion

Ginestra Bianconi

Phys. Rev. E 112, L043301 (2025) - Published 16 October, 2025

This study establishes a conceptual and mathematical connection between the Perona-Malik anisotropic diffusion algorithm and the entropic quantum gravity framework based on geometric quantum relative entropy. The proposal lies at the interface of machine learning, information theory, and quantum gravity.

Buckling and zipping of a magnetic ring under gravity

Adrien Wafflard, Simon Van der Heyde, Jérémy Dhyon, Eric Opsomer, and Nicolas Vandewalle

Phys. Rev. E 112, L043403 (2025) - Published 24 October, 2025

Ring-shaped assemblies of magnetic beads behave similarly to a flexible, elastic annulus. In this paper, the authors perform a tabletop experiment with rings under gravity and report that initially circular rings experience flattening as the number of magnetic beads grows, until they reach a zipping state, where opposite sites stick together. The experiments are supported by a theoretical model and simulations that predict the observed scaling laws.
