Proving the chaoticity of some dynamical systems is equivalent to solving the hardest problems in mathematics. Conversely, one argues that it is not unconceivable that classical physical systems may "compute the hard or even the incomputable" by measuring observables which correspond to computationally hard or even incomputable problems.
