Collective migration and topological phase transitions in confluent epithelia
Activity in confluent epithelia renormalizes the core energy of hexatic dislocations, producing a Kosterlitz-Thouless-Halperin-Nelson-Young type melting transition whose correlation-length exponent can range up to 1 depending on T1 and T2 topological rearrangements.
