Role of Dilations in Reversing Physical Processes: Tabletop Reversibility and Generalized Thermal Operations

Irreversibility, crucial in both thermodynamics and information theory, is naturally studied by comparing the evolution—the (forward) channel—with an associated reverse—the reverse channel. There are two natural ways to define this reverse channel. Using logical inference, the reverse channel is the...
