Using a reverse-engineering approach on the time-distorted solution in a reference potential, we work out the external driving potential to be applied to a Brownian system in order to slow or accelerate the dynamics, or even to invert the arrow of time. By welding a direct and time-reversed evolution toward a well chosen common intermediate state, we analytically derive a smooth protocol to connect two arbitrary states in an arbitrarily short amount of time. Not only does the reverse…

Shortcuts in Stochastic Systems and Control of Biophysical Processes
TLDR
This poster presents a probabilistic simulation of the response of the immune system to a drug-like substance and shows clear patterns in response to various experimental conditions.

Engineered swift equilibration for arbitrary geometries.
TLDR
The ESE framework is extended to generic, overdamped Brownian systems in arbitrary curved configuration space and the approach may be used to impose the necessary dynamics to control the full temporal configurational distribution in a wide variety of experimentally realizable settings.
Engineered swift equilibration for Brownian objects: from underdamped to overdamped dynamics
We propose an enlarged framework to study transformations that drive an underdamped Brownian particle in contact with a thermal bath from an equilibrium state to a new one in an arbitrarily short…
Engineered swift equilibration of a Brownian gyrator.
TLDR
This study extends finite-time stochastic thermodynamics to transformations connecting nonequilibrium steady states, and applies a reverse-engineering approach to derive exactly the required protocol to switch from an initial steady state to a final steady state in a finite time τ.
Shortcuts to isothermality and nonequilibrium work relations.
TLDR
This work proposes and design a strategy to realize a finite-rate isothermal transition from an equilibrium state to another one at the same temperature, named the "shortcut to isothermality," which derives three nonequilibrium work relations.
An Application of Pontryagin's Principle to Brownian Particle Engineered Equilibration
TLDR
A stylized model of controlled equilibration of a small system in a fluctuating environment that exhibits the same integrability properties of well-known models of optimal mass transport by a compressible velocity field and an elementary model of nucleation is analyzed.
Engineered Swift Equilibration of a Brownian particle
TLDR
This work designs a protocol, named Engineered Swift Equilibration (ESE), that shortcuts time-consuming relaxations, and applies it to a Brownian particle trapped in an optical potential whose properties can be controlled in time and allows the system to reach equilibrium times faster than the natural equilibration rate.
Shortcuts to Adiabatic Pumping in Classical Stochastic Systems.
TLDR
A geometric interpretation of the control protocol is provided and the thermodynamic cost of implementing it is analyzed to enable fast pumping of charge or heat in quantum dots, as well as in other stochastic systems from physics, chemistry, and biology.
Shortcuts to adiabaticity using flow fields
A shortcut to adiabaticity is a recipe for generating adiabatic evolution at an arbitrary pace. Shortcuts have been developed for quantum, classical and (most recently) stochastic dynamics. A…
Optimizing the relaxation route with optimal control
TLDR
It is shown that analogous bang-bang protocols, with a number of bangs equal to the number of relevant physical variables, give the minimum connecting time under quite general conditions.
Fast-forward approach to stochastic heat engine.
TLDR
The fast-forward (FF) scheme proposed by Masuda and Nakamura in the context of conservative quantum dynamics can reproduce a quasistatic dynamics in an arbitrarily short time and is justified for a wide family of time-scaling functions, making the FF protocols very flexible.
