Oh it's worth noting that quantum computing research is reversible computing research. Quantum operations are unitary operators which necessarily have inverses.

Oh it's worth noting that quantum computing research is reversible computing research. Quantum operations are unitary operators which necessarily have inverses. Famous quantum computing results like the "no cloning" theorem are basically just consequences of the reversibility of QC.
- akvadrako 9y agoI suspect any non-trivial reversible computer will be a quantum computer. Quantum gates can perform almost any reversible operation and losing information (by not being reversible) might be physically equivalent to decoherence.
