Thermodynamic Constraints on Quantum Information Gain and Error Correction: A Triple Trade-Off
Arshag Danageozian, Mark M. Wilde, Francesco Buscemi
Abstract
Trade-off relations linking quantum error correction--viewed as a heat engine--and quantum measurements used for error identification are established, helping to understand how thermodynamics can inform, or limit, our ability to reach fault-tolerance.
