Abstract: : These lecture notes are an informal introduction to the theory of computational complexity and its links to quantum computing and statistical mechanics. 1 Introduction 1.1 Motivation Compared to the traditionally close relationship between physics and mathematics, an exchange of ideas and methods between physics and computer science barely takes places. The few interactions that go beyond Fortran programming and the quest for faster computers were often successful and provided surprising... (Update)
