This edited volume collects nine surveys that present the state-of-the-art in modeling, qualitative analysis, and simulation of active particles, focusing on specific applications in the natural sciences. As in the preceding Active Particles volumes, it blends diverse applications that demonstrate the interdisciplinary nature of the subject and the various mathematical tools available. Contributions were selected with the aim of covering a variety of viewpoints, from modeling the interactions in collective dynamics of animals and in population dynamics; through neural-networks, semi-supervised learning, and Monte Carlo methods in optimization; to kinetic and continuum theories with applications to aggregations and birth-and-death processes. Mathematicians and other members of the scientific community interested in active matter and its many applications will find this volume to be a timely, authoritative, and valuable resource.

About the Author
Eitan Tadmor is a Distinguished University Professor at the University of Maryland, College Park. Previously, he held professorship positions at Tel-Aviv University and at UCLA, where he was the founding co-director of IPAM. He was also a Senior Fellow at ETH-ITS in Zurich, and held a FSMP Chair of excellence hosted at Sorbonne University.
Tadmor’s work on the interplay between analytical theories and computational aspects of time-dependent problems, with applications to shock waves, kinetic transport, image processing and collective dynamics, was awarded the SIAM-ETH Henrici prize and AMS-SIAM Norbert Wiener prize in Applied Mathematics. He is an AMS and SIAM Fellow, and member of Academia Europaea and the European Academy of Sciences.
José Antonio Carrillo is Professor of the Analysis of Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations at the Mathematical Institute and Tutorial Fellow in Applied Mathematics at The Queen's College, University of Oxford. He held professorship positions at Imperial College London, the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, and the Universidad de Granada. He served as chair of the Applied Mathematics Committee of the European Mathematical Society. He was awarded the GAMM 2006 Richard Von-Mises prize for young researchers, a 2012 Wolfson Research Merit Award by the Royal Society, and the 2022 Echegaray Medal of the Royal Spanish Academy of Sciences.
He works on kinetic and nonlinear nonlocal diffusion equations. He has contributed to the theoretical and numerical analysis of these PDE models, and their simulation in different applications such as collective behaviour and self-organization, and their implications in mathematical biology, control engineering and global optimization. He is a SIAM Fellow, and member of the Royal Spanish Academy of Sciences, Academia Europaea and the European Academy of Sciences.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Revaluation Books, Hounslow, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
