Exponential Consensus and Flocking in Multi-Agent Systems with Infinite Fading Memory

In this paper, we study the emergent collective dynamics of multi-agent systems driven by infinite distributed fading memory of Volterra type. We establish a unified theoretical framework covering both first-order opinion consensus dynamics and second-order velocity alignment flocking kinematics. By introducing Dafermos past-history transformations, the governing integro-differential systems are reformulated into dynamical systems on an extended product Hilbert spaces. For first-order dynamics, we prove that fading memory inherently provides a hidden dissipative mechanism, guaranteeing unconditional global exponential consensus with or without instantaneous communication forces. For second-order dynamics, we obtain unconditional exponential flocking for the pure fading memory system and we give a sufficient condition for flocking when an instantaneous interaction is also present. In particular, this condition is always satisfied, namely the flocking occurs unconditionally, when the influence function has a divergent tail.

Existence and Stability of Dancing Equilibria in Asymmetric Kuramoto Networks

We study nonzero-frequency phase-locked motions in asymmetrically coupled Kuramoto networks. Such motions are relative equilibria with fixed phase differences and a nonzero common angular velocity, and we call them dancing equilibria. Their existence requires all coupling sums to have the same nonzero value. We show that neither symmetric coupling nor an acyclic associated digraph can support a dancing equilibrium. We introduce structurally equitable and $q$-twisted state equitable partitions and prove a partition-based criterion for the resulting class-constant profiles, with standard labeled $q$-twisted profiles recovered from singleton partitions. For the forward $m$-neighbor model, we characterize existence by an exact indivisibility criterion. Stability is studied modulo the common phase-shift direction. For general directed networks, strong connectivity and edgewise phase differences in $\left(-\pi/2,\pi/2\right)$ imply local orbital exponential stability and yield an explicit positively invariant set contained in the local basin of attraction. For arbitrary twisted indices, this contraction argument gives a low-winding stability regime with explicit positively invariant neighborhoods. For each existing $q$-twisted branch of the forward model, a discrete Fourier transform criterion yields local orbital exponential stability when all nonzero Fourier-mode factors are positive and nonlinear instability when at least one is negative. In the unstable case, the proof constructs explicit escaping real Fourier perturbations. We further derive additional explicit stability and instability ranges for arbitrary twisted indices in terms of constants $N$, $m$, and $q$. For the first two twisted branches, sharper arguments yield a first-mode transition criterion for $q=1$ and a complete finite-size classification for $q=2$, with the degenerate case in each branch handled separately.

Dynamic Hologram Generation with Automatic Differentiation

We designed an automatic differentiation-based strategy to generate optical trap arrays that change smoothly in time. Instead of repeatedly regenerating the holograms for each time step, we derive the differential form of the phase dynamics that enables the continuous evolution of the trap coordinates. This differential form is derived from the implicit differentiation of the fixed point of the Gerchberg-Saxton algorithm, which is computationally efficient. We carried out numerical and laboratory experiments to demonstrate its effectiveness in improving the phase continuity and reducing the computational burden compared to the traditional pure interpolation techniques. By combining the method with the spatial light modulator, the method is promising for the dynamic manipulation of particles in real experiments.

Bulk induced phase transition in driven diffusive systems

This Letter studies a weakly and asymmetrically coupled three-lane driven diffusive system. A non-monotonically changing density profile in the middle lane has been observed. When the extreme value of the density profile reaches $ρ=0.5$, a bulk induced phase transition occurs which exhibits a shock and a continuously and smoothly decreasing density profile which crosses $ρ=0.5$ upstream or downstream of the shock. The existence of double shocks has also been observed. A mean-field approach has been used to interpret the numerical results obtained by Monte Carlo simulations. The current minimization principle has excluded the occurrence of two or more bulk induced shocks in the general case of nonzero lane changing rates.
