While the excess entropy of the perturbed coin approaches zero as p→0.5 (red line), generating such statistics classically generally requires an entropy of Cμ=1 (green line). Encoding the past within a quantum system leads to significant improvement (purple line). (Here ).) However, even the quantum protocol still requires an input entropy greater than the excess entropy.
