الوصف: Experiments have shown that surfactant introduced to a liquid-filled maze can find the solution path. We reveal how the maze-solving dynamics arise from interactions between the added surfactant and endogenous surfactant present at the liquid surface. We simulate the dynamics using a nonlinear model solved with a discrete mimetic scheme on a graph. Endogenous surfactant transforms local spreading into a nonlocal problem with an omniscient view of the maze geometry, key to the maze-solving dynamics. Our results offer insight into surfactant-driven transport in complex networks such as lung airways. Published by the American Physical Society 2025
