Abstract: This paper is a survey dedicated to the analogy between the notions of {it complexity} in theoretical computer science and {it energy} in physics. This analogy is not metaphorical: I describe three precise mathematical contexts, suggested recently, in which mathematics related to (un)computability is inspired by and to a degree reproduces formalisms of statistical physics and quantum field theory.
