Braiding Dynamics in Active Nematics
In active matter systems, energy consumed at the small scale by individual agents gives rise to emergent flows at large scales. For 2D active nematic microtubule (ANMT) systems, these flows are largely characterized by the dynamics of mobile defects in the nematic director field. As these defects wi...
