One of the central concerns of computer science is how the resources needed to perform a
given computation depend on that computation. Moreover, one of the major resource …

Shannon information theory provides various measures of so-called syntactic information,
which reflect the amount of statistical correlation between systems. By contrast, the concept …

We establish the fluctuation theorem in the presence of information exchange between a
nonequilibrium system and other degrees of freedom such as an observer and a feedback …

We review and investigate the general theory of the thermodynamics of computation, and
derive the fundamental inequalities that set the lower bounds of the work requirement and …

Landauer's Principle asserts that there is an unavoidable cost in thermodynamic entropy
creation when data is erased. It is usually derived from incorrect assumptions, most notably …

We relate the information exchange between two stochastic systems to the nonequilibrium
entropy production in the whole system. By deriving a general formula that decomposes the …

Digital computers implement computations using circuits, as do many naturally occurring
systems (eg, gene regulatory networks). The topology of any such circuit restricts which …

In a recent paper [Stud. Hist. Philos. Mod. Phys. 36, 355 (2005)] it is argued that to properly
understand the thermodynamics of Landauer's principle it is necessary to extend the …

The energy cost of measurement is an important fundamental question, and may have
profound implications for quantum technologies. In the context of Maxwell's demon, it is often …
