Information swimmer: Self-propulsion without energy dissipation
We study an information-based mechanism of self-propulsion in noisy environment. An information swimmer maintains directional motion by periodically measuring its velocity and accordingly adjusting its friction coefficient. Assuming that the measurement and adjustment are reversible and hence cause...
