The interplay between activity and filament flexibility determines the emergent properties of active nematics Open
Active nematics are microscopically driven liquid crystals that exhibit dynamical steady states characterized by the creation and annihilation of topological defects. Motivated by experimental realizations of such systems made of biopolyme…

Instabilities, defects, and defect ordering in an overdamped active nematic Open
We consider a phenomenological continuum theory for an extensile, overdamped active nematic liquid crystal, applicable in the dense regime.
