Quantum coherence allows for reduced-memory simulators of classical processes. Using recent results in single-shot quantum thermodynamics, we derive a minimal work cost rate for quantum simulators that is quasistatically attainable in the limit of asymptotically infinite parallel simulation. Comparing this cost with the classical regime reveals that quantizing classical simulators not only results in memory compression but also in reduced dissipation. We explore this advantage across a suite of representative examples.

量子内存压缩的热效率。

量子相干允许减少经典过程的内存模拟器。使用单次量子热力学的最新结果，我们得出了在渐近无限并行模拟的范围内可以准静态达到的量子模拟器的最低工作成本率。将此成本与经典机制进行比较，发现量化经典模拟器不仅会导致内存压缩，而且会减少耗散。我们通过一系列具有代表性的示例来探索这种优势。
