Phase transitions and fluctuations of nonreciprocal systems — •Sarah A.M. Loos — DAMTP, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK

Reciprocity is a hallmark of thermal equilibrium, but ubiquitously broken in far-from-equilibrium systems. I will give some insights into how nonreciprocal interactions can fundamentally affect the phases and fluctuations of many-body systems. Using a two-dimensional XY model, where spins interact only with neighbours within their ‘vision cones’, we show how nonreciprocity can lead to true long-range order and directional propagation of defects [1]. In binary fluids, nonreciprocal coupling between fluid components can cause the emergence of travelling waves through PT symmetry-breaking phase transitions. Using a nonreciprocal field theory, we show that fluctuations not only inflate, as in equilibrium criticality, but also develop an asymptotically increasing time-reversal asymmetry [2-4]. The formation of dissipative patterns and the emergence of irreversible fluctuations can both be attributed to a mechanism of mode coupling in the vicinity of critical exception points, which manifests itself in actively propelled interface dynamics [4].
