Optimal protocols for slowly-driven quantum processes
Patrick R. Zulkowski, Michael R. DeWeese
The design of efficient quantum information processing will rely on optimal nonequilibrium transitions of driven quantum systems. Building on a recently-developed geometric framewo…
Optimal Control of Overdamped Systems
Patrick R. Zulkowski, Michael R. DeWeese
Nonequilibrium physics encompasses a broad range of natural and synthetic small-scale systems. Optimizing transitions of such systems will be crucial for the development of nanosca…
Optimal finite-time erasure of a classical bit
Patrick R. Zulkowski, Michael R. DeWeese
Information erasure inevitably leads to heat dissipation. Minimizing this dissipation will be crucial for developing small-scale information processing systems, but little is known…
Optimal control of transitions between nonequilibrium steady states
Patrick R. Zulkowski, David A. Sivak, Michael R. DeWeese
Biological systems fundamentally exist out of equilibrium in order to preserve organized structures and processes. Many changing cellular conditions can be represented as transitio…
The geometry of thermodynamic control
Patrick R. Zulkowski, David A. Sivak, Gavin E. Crooks +1
A deeper understanding of nonequilibrium phenomena is needed to reveal the principles governing natural and synthetic molecular machines. Recent work has shown that when a thermody…
Quantizing Horava-Lifshitz Gravity via Causal Dynamical Triangulations
Christian Anderson, Steven Carlip, Joshua H. Cooperman +3
We extend the discrete Regge action of causal dynamical triangulations to include discrete versions of the curvature squared terms appearing in the continuum action of (2+1)-dimens…
