 abstract = {A paradigm for internally driven matter is the active nematic liquid
crystal, whereby the equations of a conventional nematic are
supplemented by a minimal active stress that violates time-reversal
symmetry. In practice, active fluids may have not only
liquid-crystalline but also viscoelastic polymer degrees of freedom.
Here we explore the resulting interplay by coupling an active nematic to
a minimal model of polymer rheology. We find that adding a polymer can
greatly increase the complexity of spontaneous flow, but can also have
calming effects, thereby increasing the net throughput of spontaneous
flow along a pipe (a ``drag-reduction″ effect). Remarkably, active
turbulence can also arise after switching on activity in a sufficiently
soft elastomeric solid.},
