नाथ, त्रऱक्षर: The Physical Impossibility of Scalable Universal Quantum Computing: A Philosophical and Thermodynamic Critique

Quantum computing has been presented as the next revolutionary paradigm in computation, promising exponential acceleration for selected computational problems and potentially transformative implications for cryptography, simulation, and optimization. However, contemporary achievements in quantum information sci- ence remain narrowly constrained demonstrations rather than evidence for scalable universal quantum computation. This paper argues that large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computing may b
