Information thermodynamics of transition paths between multiple mesostates
Miranda D. Louwerse, David A. Sivak
A central concern across the natural sciences is a quantitative understanding of the mechanism governing rare transitions between two metastable states. Recent research has uncover…
Information Arbitrage in Bipartite Heat Engines
Matthew P. Leighton, Jannik Ehrich, David A. Sivak
Heat engines and information engines have each historically served as motivating examples for the development of thermodynamics. While these two types of systems are typically thou…
Jensen bound for the entropy production rate in stochastic thermodynamics
Matthew P. Leighton, David A. Sivak
Bounding and estimating entropy production has long been an important goal of nonequilibrium thermodynamics. We recently derived a lower bound on the total and subsystem entropy pr…
Unlocking the potential of information flow: Maximizing free-energy transduction in a model of an autonomous rotary molecular motor
Mathis Grelier, David A. Sivak, Jannik Ehrich
Molecular motors fulfill critical functions within all living beings. Understanding their underlying working principles is therefore of great interest. Here we develop a simple mod…
Efficient control protocols for an active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particle
Deepak Gupta, Sabine H. L. Klapp, David A. Sivak
Designing a protocol to efficiently drive a stochastic system is an active field of research. Here we extend such control theory to an active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particle (AOUP) in…
Signal in the noise: temporal variation in exponentially growing populations
Eric W. Jones, Joshua Derrick, Roger M. Nisbet +2
In exponential population growth, variability in the timing of individual division events and environmental factors (including stochastic inoculation) compound to produce variable…
