In a system of noisy self-propelled particles with interactions that favor directional alignment, collective motion will appear if the density of particles is beyond a critical density. Starting with a reduced model for collective motion, we determine how the critical density depends on the form of the initial perturbation. Specifically, we employ a renormalization-group improved perturbative method to analyze the model equations, and show analytically, up to first order in the perturbation parameter, how the critical density is modified by the strength of the initial angular perturbation in the system.

Micro-Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) are defined as very small structures that combine electrical and mechanical components on a common substrate. Here, the electrostatic-elastic case is considered, where an elastic membrane is allowed to deflect
above a ground plate under the action of an electric potential, whose strength is proportional to a parameter $lambda$. Such devices are commonly described by a parabolic partial differential equation that contains a singular nonlinear source term. The singularity in that term corresponds to the so-called touchdown phenomenon, where the membrane establishes contact with the ground plate. Touchdown is known to imply the non-existence of steady state solutions and blow-up of solutions in finite time. We study a recently proposed extension of that canonical model, where such singularities are avoided due to the introduction of a regularizing term involving a small regularization parameter $varepsilon$. Methods from dynamical systems and geometric singular perturbation theory, in particular the desingularization technique known as blow-up, allow for a precise description of steady-state solutions of the regularized model, as well as for a detailed resolution of the resulting bifurcation diagram. The interplay between the two main model parameters $varepsilon$ and $lambda$ is emphasized; in particular, the focus is on the singular limit as both parameters tend to zero.
The reduced 1D Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) model of artificial nanopores in the presence of a permanent charge on the channel wall is studied. More specifically, we consider the limit where the channel length exceed much the Debye screening length an
d channels charge is sufficiently small. Ion transport is described by the nonequillibrium steady-state solution of the PNP system within a singular perturbation treatment. The quantities, 1/lambda -- the ratio of the Debye length to a characteristic length scale and epsilon -- the scaled intrinsic charge density, serve as the singular and the regular perturbation parameters, respectively. The role of the boundary conditions is discussed. A comparison between numerics and the analytical results of the singular perturbation theory is presented.
In a system of noisy self-propelled particles with interactions that favor directional alignment, collective motion will appear if the density of particles increases beyond a certain threshold. In this paper, we argue that such a threshold may depend
also on the profiles of the perturbation in the particle directions. Specifically, we perform mean-field, linear stability, perturbative and numerical analyses on an approximated form of the Fokker-Planck equation describing the system. We find that if an angular perturbation to an initially homogeneous system is large in magnitude and highly localized in space, it will be amplified and thus serves as an indication of the onset of collective motion. Our results also demonstrate that high particle speed promotes collective motion.
We present a renormalization group (RG) analysis of a fermionic hot spot model of interacting electrons on the square lattice. We truncate the Fermi surface excitations to linearly dispersing quasiparticles in the vicinity of eight hot spots on the F
ermi surface, with each hot spot separated from another by the wavevector $(pi, pi)$. This motivated by the importance of these Fermi surface locations to the onset of antiferromagnetic order; however, we allow for all possible quartic interactions between the fermions, and also for all possible ordering instabilities. We compute the RG equations for our model, which depend on whether the hot spots are perfectly nested or not, and relate our results to earlier models. We also compute the RG flow of the relevant order parameters for both Hubbard and $J$, $V$ interactions, and present our results for the dominant instabilities in the nested and non-nested cases. In particular, we find that non-nested hot spots with $J$, $V$ interactions have competing singlet $d_{x^2-y^2}$ superconducting and $d$-form factor incommensurate density wave instabilities. We also investigate the enhancement of incommensurate density waves near experimentally observed wavevectors, and find dominant $d$-form factor enhancement for a range of couplings.
We develop a theoretical approach to ``spontaneous stochasticity in classical dynamical systems that are nearly singular and weakly perturbed by noise. This phenomenon is associated to a breakdown in uniqueness of solutions for fixed initial data and
underlies many fundamental effects of turbulence (unpredictability, anomalous dissipation, enhanced mixing). Based upon analogy with statistical-mechanical critical points at zero temperature, we elaborate a renormalization group (RG) theory that determines the universal statistics obtained for sufficiently long times after the precise initial data are ``forgotten. We apply our RG method to solve exactly the ``minimal model of spontaneous stochasticity given by a 1D singular ODE. Generalizing prior results for the infinite-Reynolds limit of our model, we obtain the RG fixed points that characterize the spontaneous statistics in the near-singular, weak-noise limit, determine the exact domain of attraction of each fixed point, and derive the universal approach to the fixed points as a singular large-deviations scaling, distinct from that obtained by the standard saddle-point approximation to stochastic path-integrals in the zero-noise limit. We present also numerical simulation results that verify our analytical predictions, propose possible experimental realizations of the ``minimal model, and discuss more generally current empirical evidence for ubiquitous spontaneous stochasticity in Nature. Our RG method can be applied to more complex, realistic systems and some future applications are briefly outlined.
