Zoology of collective patterns modulated by non-reciprocal, long-range interactions
Abstract
and observe that the process is non-reversible and presents strong hysteresis. Finally, we find that in three dimensions similar patterns also emerge. The analysis sheds light on the physics of single-species active particles with long-range, non-reciprocal interactions in two and three dimensions, characterized by the absence of gas phases, and provides evidence that in these systems, topological and transport properties are closely related.
