Singular optimal driving cycles of stochastic pumps

The investigation of optimal processes has a long history in the field of thermodynamics. It is well-known that finite-time processes which minimize dissipation often exhibit discontinuities. We use a combination of numerical and analytical approaches to study the driving cycle that maximizes the ou...
