These three lectures cover a certain aspect of complexity and black
holes, namely the relation to the second law of thermodynamics. The
first lecture describes the meaning of quantum complexity, the
analogy between entropy and complexity, and the second law of
complexity. Lecture two reviews the connection between the second
law of complexity and the interior of black holes. Prof. L.
Susskind discusses how firewalls are related to periods of
non-increasing complexity which typically only occur after an
exponentially long time. The final lecture is about the
thermodynamics of complexity, and "uncomplexity" as a resource for
doing computational work. The author explains the remarkable power
of "one clean qubit," in both computational terms and in space-time
terms. This book is intended for graduate students and researchers
who want to take the first steps towards the mysteries of black
holes and their complexity.
