Fundamental energy requirement of reversible quantum operations

G Chiribella, Y Yang, R Renner - Physical Review X, 2021 - APS
Landauer's principle asserts that any computation has an unavoidable energy cost that
grows proportionally to its degree of logical irreversibility. But even a logically reversible …

Quantum foundations of classical reversible computing

MP Frank, K Shukla - Entropy, 2021 - mdpi.com
The reversible computation paradigm aims to provide a new foundation for general classical

Complexity-constrained quantum thermodynamics

A Munson, NBT Kothakonda, J Haferkamp… - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
Quantum complexity measures the difficulty of realizing a quantum process, such as

The minimal work cost of information processing

P Faist, F Dupuis, J Oppenheim, R Renner - Nature communications, 2015 - nature.com
Irreversible information processing cannot be carried out without some inevitable
thermodynamical work cost. This fundamental restriction, known as Landauer's principle, is …

Limitations of noisy reversible computation

D Aharonov, M Ben-Or, R Impagliazzo… - arxiv preprint quant-ph …, 1996 - arxiv.org
Noisy computation and reversible computation have been studied separately, and it is
known that they are as powerful as unrestricted computation. We study the case where both …

Reducing the depth of linear reversible quantum circuits

TG De Brugiere, M Baboulin, B Valiron… - IEEE Transactions …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In quantum computing the decoherence time of the qubits determines the computation time
available, and this time is very limited when using current hardware. In this article, we …

The physical limits of computing

MP Frank - Computing in Science & Engineering, 2002 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Many of the fundamental limits on information processing, from thermodynamics, relativity,
and quantum mechanics, are only a few decades away. Novel physically motivated …

Speed limit for a highly irreversible process and tight finite-time Landauer's bound

JS Lee, S Lee, H Kwon, H Park - Physical review letters, 2022 - APS
Landauer's bound is the minimum thermodynamic cost for erasing one bit of information. As
this bound is achievable only for quasistatic processes, finite-time operation incurs …
