Symmetry and stability of orientationally ordered collective motions of self-propelled, semiflexible filaments by Madhuvanthi Guruprasad Athani, Daniel A. Beller

“…The symmetry (nematic or polar) of the long-range order that first emerges is shown to depend on the energy cost of filament overlap and on filament flexibility. However, our model also predicts that a long-range-ordered active nematic state is merely transient, whereas long-range polar order is the only active dynamical steady state in systems with finite filament rigidity.…”
