Sequential Capacity of Quantum Processes with Finite Memory
How complex can the responses of a quantum device become as it runs longer with a fixed internal memory? We quantify this complexity through sequential response capacity: how many adaptive testing stages, each using a fresh run, can continue to separate possible processes by a prescribed gap in response probabilities. For fixed system and memory sizes, we establish a tight law relating this capacity to run length and probability resolution. At fixed resolution, the capacity grows on the order of…
