Physical limits on self-replication processes
Robert Alicki
Using few very general axioms which should be satisfied by any reasonable theory consistent with general physical principles and some more recent results concerning "broadcasting"…
Internal Consistency of Fault-Tolerant Quantum Error Correction in Light of Rigorous Derivations of the Quantum Markovian Limit
R. Alicki, D. A. Lidar, P. Zanardi
We critically examine the internal consistency of a set of minimal assumptions entering the theory of fault-tolerant quantum error correction for Markovian noise. These assumptions…
Quantum error correction fails for Hamiltonian models
Robert Alicki
It is argued that the existing schemes of fault-tolerant quantum computation designed for discrete-time models and based on quantum error correction fail for continuous-time Hamilt…
Note on multiple additivity of minimal Renyi entropy output of the Werner-Holevo channels
R. Alicki, M. Fannes
We give an elementary self-contained proof that the minimal entropy output of arbitrary products of channels is additive.
Thermodynamics of quantum informational systems - Hamiltonian description
Robert Alicki, Michal Horodecki, Pawel Horodecki +1
It is often claimed, that from a quantum system of d levels, and entropy S and heat bath of temperature T one can draw kT(ln d -S) amount of work. However, the usual arguments base…
Comments on "Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computation for Local Non-Markovian Noise"
Robert Alicki
In the recent paper Terhal and Burkard derived a threshold result for fault-tolerant quantum computation under the assumption of the non-Markovian noise and claimed to rebut the ob…
