Scale-free correlations in extremely persistent active matter
Grzegorz Szamel
Abstract
Scale-free correlations are believed to be generic in out of equilibrium systems but their explicit derivations are rare and often involve approximations. Here we analyze a system of infinitely persistent active Brownian particles in the low density and small-swim-velocity limit. We show that both the density and swim velocity correlations decay algebraically as r-(d+1) (with logarithmic corrections in d=2). In reciprocal space these correlations manifest themselves as cusps at k=0. The analytical predictions are confirmed by numerical simulations. The results were obtained through interaction with Claude (Opus 4.8 and 5, and Fable 5) and verified by the author.
