abstract = {We theoretically study the conformational and dynamical
properties of semiflexible active polar ring polymers under
linear shear flow. A ring is described as a continuous
Gaussian polymer with a tangential active force of a
constant density along its contour. The linear but
non-Hermitian equation of motion is solved using an
eigenfunction expansion, which yields activity-independent,
but shear-rate-dependent, relaxation times and
activity-dependent frequencies. As a consequence, the ring's
stationary-state properties are independent of activity, and
its conformations as well as rheological properties are
equal to those of a passive ring under shear. The presence
of characteristic time scales by the relaxation and the
frequency gives rise to a particular dynamical behavior. A
tank-treading-like motion emerges for large relaxation times
and high frequencies, specifically for stiffer rings,
governed by the activity-dependent frequencies. In the case
of very flexible polymers, the relaxation behavior dominates
over tank-treading. Shear strongly affects the crossover
from a tank-treading to a relaxation-time dominated dynamics
and suppresses tank-treading. This is reflected in the
tumbling frequency, which exhibits two shear-rate dependent
regimes, with an activity-dependent plateau at low shear
rates followed by a power-law regime with increasing
tumbling frequency for large shear rates.},
