A mobility based approach to self diffusion in odd-mobile systems — •Filippo Faedi and Abhinav Sharma — University of Augsburg

Odd-diffusive systems, defined by antisymmetric diffusion tensors, display unusual dynamics including enhanced self-diffusion due to interactions, oscillatory force autocorrelation functions in over-damped systems, and reversal of particle mobility. This work introduces a mobility-based approach by externally driving particles with constant forces, uncovering profound transport anomalies. We demonstrate an inverted density wake around a driven tracer, where increasing oddness reverses collision effects, reducing effective friction and enhancing mobility. Using fluctuation-dissipation, mobility-derived self-diffusion confirms prior findings, providing a unified view of interaction-induced anomalous dynamics in chiral media.
