Information Physics

Dive into the theory of physical computation.

Information-Energy Exchange-Rate

Revealing the energetic cost of transforming quantum information.  Devices must be tailored to their input.

Thermodynamic Prediction and Retrodiction

Maximizing thermodynamic resources leads to principles of emergent complexity.  Prediction and retrodiction result from minimizing entropy production.

Error-Dissipation Tradeoff

The work required to compute diverges with increasing reliability.  This is due to time-reversal asymmetries of the computation known as "reciprocity."

Thermodynamic Machine Learning

Maximizing work production is machine learning.  These machines must match the complexity of their environment, but risk divergent dissipation with excessively complex models.
