| contents | Odd viscoelasticity arises in parity-violating nonequilibrium materials, where it leads to unconventional mechanical responses and oscillatory relaxation even in overdamped systems. While many living and active chiral materials present promising candidates to exhibit odd viscoelasticity, there is currently no approach that allows for a rheological inference of the large number of elastic and viscous moduli that even a minimal isotropic odd viscoelastic material can depend on. Generalizing the century-old Papkovich-Neuber ansatz to active materials, our work introduces an odd Papkovich-Neuber (OPN) solution -- an analytic solution for any isotropic linear odd fluid or solid, each described by up to 6 independent moduli -- that enable us to study the boundary-driven response in geometries that mimic common rheology methods. OPN solutions reveal three physically distinct resonances in odd viscoelastic solids that are characteristic of the underlying material moduli and can all be interpreted within a single geometric framework. Underlying this unification is an equivalent description of overdamped odd viscoelastic materials in terms of damped harmonic oscillators. Resonances appear as the effective damping coefficients of these oscillators vanish, which is facilitated by the activity that powers odd material properties. |
