Dynamics as Computation

A visual talk on how computation can emerge from physical dynamics, moving from reservoir systems and operator lifts through classical-quantum structure to optimisation in Hamiltonian ground states.

Dynamics as Computation

This talk asks when a dynamical system stops being merely something that evolves and starts behaving like a computational device. The route runs through reservoir computing, Koopman and KvN viewpoints, quantum signatures in quasiprobability, and finally the encoding of optimisation problems into Hamiltonian ground states.

  • It begins by comparing smooth dynamical evolution with symbolic step-by-step computation.
  • It develops the operator picture through random features, reservoirs, Koopman lifts, and measurement.
  • It ends with quantum structure, Hamiltonians of mean force, and ground-state optimisation.
