Quantizing Horava-Lifshitz Gravity via Causal Dynamical Triangulations
Christian N. Anderson,Steven Carlip,Joshua H. Cooperman,Petr Hořava,Rajesh Kommu,Patrick R. Zulkowski +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors extend the discrete Regge action of causal dynamical triangulations to include discrete versions of the curvature squared terms appearing in the (2+1)-dimensional projectable Horava-Lifshitz gravity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geometry of thermodynamic control.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors construct closed-form expressions for minimal-dissipation protocols for a particle diffusing in a one-dimensional harmonic potential, where the spring constant, inverse temperature, and trap location are adjusted simultaneously.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimal finite-time erasure of a classical bit.
TL;DR: Close agreement is demonstrated between the exact optimal cycle and the protocol found using a linear response framework for deletion of a classical bit of information stored by the position of a particle diffusing in a double-well potential.
Journal Article
Geometry of thermodynamic control
TL;DR: This work constructs closed-form expressions for minimal-dissipation protocols for a particle diffusing in a one-dimensional harmonic potential and demonstrates that the friction tensor arises naturally from a first-order expansion in temporal derivatives of the control parameters, without appealing directly to linear response theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimal control of overdamped systems
TL;DR: A simple, compact expression for the inverse diffusion tensor is derived that depends solely on equilibrium information for a broad class of potentials and takes a different form than what was found previously for a similar system.
