We study the problem of optimizing released heat or dissipated work in stochastic thermodynamics. In the overdamped limit these functionals have singular solutions, previously interpreted as protocol jumps. We show that a regularization, penalizing a properly defined acceleration, changes the jumps into boundary layers of finite width. We show that in the limit of vanishing boundary layer width no heat is dissipated in the boundary layer, while work can be done. We further give a new interpretation of the fact that the optimal protocols in the overdamped limit are given by optimal deterministic transport (Burgers equation).

Optimal Control of Engineered Swift Equilibration of Nanomechanical Oscillators
Treating the oscillator potential as a state removes terminal-jump boundary conditions from minimum-work protocols and reduces bulk optimal dynamics to a universal centre-manifold turnpike.

Scaling of Stochastic Normalizing Flows in $\mathrm{SU}(3)$ lattice gauge theory
First demonstration that Stochastic Normalizing Flows inherit the linear-with-volume scaling of non-equilibrium MCMC in 4D SU(3) lattice gauge theory, with a factor-of-two efficiency gain.
