abstract = {Active matter agents consume internal energy or extract
energy from the environment for locomotion and force
generation. Already, rather generic models, such as
ensembles of active Brownian particles, exhibit phenomena,
which are absent at equilibrium, particularly
motility-induced phase separation and collective motion.
Further intriguing nonequilibrium effects emerge in
assemblies of bound active agents as in linear polymers or
filaments. The interplay of activity and conformational
degrees of freedom gives rise to novel structural and
dynamical features of individual polymers, as well as in
interacting ensembles. Such out-of-equilibrium polymers are
an integral part of living matter, ranging from biological
cells with filaments propelled by motor proteins in the
cytoskeleton and RNA/DNA in the transcription process to
long swarming bacteria and worms such as Proteus mirabilis
and Caenorhabditis elegans, respectively. Even artificial
active polymers have been synthesized. The emergent
properties of active polymers or filaments depend on the
coupling of the active process to their conformational
degrees of freedom, aspects that are addressed in this
article. The theoretical models for tangentially and
isotropically self-propelled or active-bath-driven polymers
are presented, both in the presence and absence of
hydrodynamic interactions. The consequences for their
conformational and dynamical properties are examined, with
emphasis on the strong influence of the coupling between
activity and hydrodynamic interactions. Particular features
of emerging phenomena in semi-dilute systems, induced by
steric and hydrodynamic interactions, are highlighted.
Various important, yet theoretically unexplored, aspects are
featured, and future challenges are discussed.},
