A space–time tradeoff for implementing a function with master equation dynamics

Deterministic maps from initial to final states can always be modelled using the master equation formalism, provided additional “hidden” states are available. Here, the authors demonstrate a tradeoff between the required number of such states and the number of required, suitably defined “hidden time...
