Analysis of Heat Dissipation and Reliability in Information Erasure: A Gaussian Mixture Approach

This article analyzes the effect of imperfections in physically realizable memory. Motivated by the realization of a bit as a Brownian particle within a double well potential, we investigate the energetics of an erasure protocol under a Gaussian mixture model. We obtain sharp quantitative entropy bo...
