Out-of-equilibrium disordered systems may form memories of external driving in a remarkable fashion. The system remembers multiple values from a series of training inputs yet forgets nearly all of them at long times despite the inputs being continually repeated. Here, learning and forgetting are inseparable aspects of a single process. The memory loss may be prevented by the addition of noise. We identify a class of systems with this behavior, giving as an example a model of non-brownian suspensions under cyclic shear.

Memory formation in matter is a theme of broad intellectual relevance; it sits at the interdisciplinary crossroads of physics, biology, chemistry, and computer science. Memory connotes the ability to encode, access, and erase signatures of past histo
ry in the state of a system. Once the system has completely relaxed to thermal equilibrium, it is no longer able to recall aspects of its evolution. Memory of initial conditions or previous training protocols will be lost. Thus many forms of memory are intrinsically tied to far-from-equilibrium behavior and to transient response to a perturbation. This general behavior arises in diverse contexts in condensed matter physics and materials: phase change memory, shape memory, echoes, memory effects in glasses, return-point memory in disordered magnets, as well as related contexts in computer science. Yet, as opposed to the situation in biology, there is currently no common categorization and description of the memory behavior that appears to be prevalent throughout condensed-matter systems. Here we focus on material memories. We will describe the basic phenomenology of a few of the known behaviors that can be understood as constituting a memory. We hope that this will be a guide towards developing the unifying conceptual underpinnings for a broad understanding of memory effects that appear in materials.
Athermal systems across a large range of length scales, ranging from foams and granular bead packings to crumpled metallic sheets, exhibit slow stress relaxation when compressed. Experimentally they show a non-monotonic stress response when decompres
sed somewhat after an initial compression, i.e. under a two-step, Kovacs-like protocol. It turns out that from this response one can tell the age of the system, suggesting an interpretation as a memory effect. In this work we use a model of an athermal jammed solid, specifically a binary mixture of soft harmonic spheres, to explore this phenomenon through in-silico experiments. Using extensive simulations under conditions analogous to those in experiment, we observe identical phenomenology in the stress response under a two--step protocol. Our model system also recovers the behaviour under a more recently studied three-step protocol, which consists of a compression followed by a decompression and then a final compression. We show that the observed response in both two-step and three-step protocols can be understood using Linear Response Theory. In particular, a linear scaling with age for the two-step protocol arises generically for slow linear responses with power law or logarithmic decay and does not in itself point to any underlying aging dynamics.
We study pattern formation processes in anisotropic system governed by the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation with multiplicative noise as a generalization of the Bradley-Harper model for ripple formation induced by ion bombardment. For both linear and no
nlinear systems we study noise induced effects at ripple formation and discuss scaling behavior of the surface growth and roughness characteristics. It was found that the secondary parameters of the ion beam (beam profile and variations of an incidence angle) can crucially change the topology of patterns and the corresponding dynamics.
Observation of the Brownian motion of a small probe interacting with its environment is one of the main strategies to characterize soft matter. Essentially two counteracting forces govern the motion of the Brownian particle. First, the particle is dr
iven by the rapid collisions with the surrounding solvent molecules, referred to as thermal noise. Second, the friction between the particle and the viscous solvent damps its motion. Conventionally, the thermal force is assumed to be random and characterized by a white noise spectrum. Friction is assumed to be given by the Stokes drag, implying that motion is overdamped. However, as the particle receives momentum from the fluctuating fluid molecules, it also displaces the fluid in its immediate vicinity. The entrained fluid acts back on the sphere and gives rise to long-range correlation. This hydrodynamic memory translates to thermal forces, which display a coloured noise spectrum. Even 100 years after Perrins pioneering experiments on Brownian motion, direct experimental observation of this colour has remained elusive. Here, we measure the spectrum of thermal noise by confining the Brownian fluctuations of a microsphere by a strong optical trap. We show that due to hydrodynamic correlations the power spectral density of the spheres positional fluctuations exhibits a resonant peak in strong contrast to overdamped systems. Furthermore, we demonstrate that peak amplification can be achieved through parametric excitation. In analogy to Microcantilever-based sensors our results demonstrate that the particle-fluid-trap system can be considered as a nanomechanical resonator, where the intrinsic hydrodynamic backflow enhances resonance. Therefore, instead of being a disturbance, details in thermal noise can be exploited for the development of new types of sensors and particle-based assays for lab-on-a-chip applications.
We study the random processes with non-local memory and obtain new solutions of the Mori-Zwanzig equation describing non-markovian systems. We analyze the system dynamics depending on the amplitudes $ u$ and $mu_0$ of the local and non-local memory a
nd pay attention to the line in the ($ u$, $mu_0$)-plane separating the regions with asymptotically stationary and non-stationary behavior. We obtain general equations for such boundaries and consider them for three examples of the non-local memory functions. We show that there exist two types of the boundaries with fundamentally different system dynamics. On the boundaries of the first type, the diffusion with memory takes place, whereas on borderlines of the second type, the phenomenon of noise-induced resonance can be observed. A distinctive feature of noise-induced resonance in the systems under consideration is that it occurs in the absence of an external regular periodic force. It takes place due to the presence of frequencies in the noise spectrum, which are close to the self-frequency of the system. We analyze also the variance of the process and compare its behavior for regions of asymptotic stationarity and non-stationarity, as well as for diffusive and noise-induced-resonance borderlines between them.
