# gst: approaching uncertainty among many-body real-time dynamics

<< Analog quantum simulation is emerging as a powerful tool for uncovering classically unreachable physics such as many-body real-time dynamics. >>️

AA << examines the interplay of errors arising from simulation of approximate time evolution with those due to practical, real-world device constraints. >>️

<< The new technique focuses on two sources of error that arise from the approximations used to map the quantum system of interest to the analog quantum simulator. In a real-world simulator, these error sources are linked in a complex way, and individually minimizing each error can increase the overall uncertainty of a simulation. (AA) tackled this problem by first isolating the two error sources and then carefully studying their interplay. This analysis enabled the researchers to finely tune a simulation’s parameters to minimize its overall uncertainty and to maximize its precision. >>️

# gst: defects around obstacles, active nematic ratchet in asymmetric arrays

AA << numerically investigate the effect of an asymmetric periodic obstacle array in a two-dimensional active nematic. (They) find that activity in conjunction with the asymmetry leads to a ratchet effect or unidirectional flow of the fluid along the asymmetry direction. The directional flow is still present even in the active turbulent phase when the gap between obstacles is sufficiently small. >>️

AA << demonstrate that the dynamics of the topological defects transition from flow mirroring to smectic-like as the gap between obstacles is made smaller, and explain this transition in terms of the pinning of negative winding number defects between obstacles. >>

# gst: controlled creation of point defects in 3D colloidal crystals

<< Crystal defects crucially influence the properties of crystalline materials and have been extensively studied. Even for the simplest type of defect—the point defect—however, basic properties such as their diffusive behavior, and their interactions, remain elusive on the atomic scale. >>️

Here AA << demonstrate in situ control over the creation of isolated point defects in a three-dimensional (3D) colloidal crystal allowing insight on a single-particle level. >>

AA << experimental model system provides a unique opportunity to shed light on the interplay between point defects, on the mechanisms of their diffusion, on their interactions, and on collective dynamics. >>️

# music: masters of noise, Frank Zappa plays bicycles

Frank Zappa teaches Steve Allen to play The Bicycle (aired March 3, 1963).

<< This televisual gem inspired me follow along which got me into endless trouble at family picnics and barbecues for playing my own symphonic masterpieces which, for some strange reason, nobody else seemed to enjoy. I extended Frank's genius to my exploration of the vacuum cleaner, ping pong balls and paddles, (..)  The next time you're out in a forest I challenge you to explore the musical nature of nature for yourself. Trees make great drums and often ring with higher tones - not to mention the musical benefits of rocks and stones. >>️️

# gst: apropos of uncertainty, notes on uncertainty, information, and classical dynamics.

<< Survival in this world is an adventure because we are so ignorant and everything around us seems so uncertain. In fact, it is hard to think of any realistic phenomenon that is completely free from one of the three kinds of uncertainty—deterministic (chaotic), stochastic, and quantum; more often than not, all of the three are present in various degrees. Thus, in order to gain any knowledge about any realistic system, one must understand how to characterize, quantify, and interpret these uncertainties. >>️

# gst: weird nature: the generation of complex (frilly, flexible, and functional) wrinkling patterns by 'defects'

<< A ubiquitous motif in nature is the self-similar hierarchical buckling of a thin lamina near its margins. This is seen in leaves, flowers, fungi, corals and marine invertebrates. We investigate this morphology from the perspective of non-Euclidean plate theory. We identify a novel type of defect, a branch-point of the normal map, that allows for the generation of such complex wrinkling patterns in thin elastic hyperbolic surfaces, even in the absence of stretching. We argue that branch points are the natural defects in hyperbolic sheets, they carry a topological charge which gives them a degree of robustness, and they can influence the overall morphology of a hyperbolic surface without concentrating elastic energy. >>️
