Quantum Algorithmic Complexities
Fabio Benatti · Theoretical and mathematical physics · 2023
As already emphasized in Chap. 4 information is physical and the limits to information processing tasks are ultimately set by the underlying physical laws. For instance, the standing models of computation are based on the physics of deterministic and/or stochastic classical processes; instead, quantum computation theory [84, 90, 156, 198, 266] studies the new possibilities offered by a model of computation based on quantum mechanical laws. The birth of such a theory finds a technological motivation in the high pace at which chip miniaturization proceeds.
