Self-Annealing Dynamics in a Multistable System

Abstract

A new type of dynamical behavior of a multistable system is reported. We found that a simple non-equilibrium system can reduce its effective temperature autonomously at a global minimum if the residual frustration at a global minimum is small enough, which highlights an unexpected feature of non-equilibrium multistable systems.
