Physical complexity and black hole quantum computers
Michele Reilly, Seth Lloyd
The ultimate limits of computation are not just logical, but physical. We investigate the physical resources -- time, energy, entropy, and free energy -- required to perform comput…

A quantum algorithm for Khovanov homology
Alexander Schmidhuber, Michele Reilly, Paolo Zanardi +2
Khovanov homology is a topological knot invariant that categorifies the Jones polynomial, recognizes the unknot, and is conjectured to appear as an observable in supersymmetri…
