Entropy Uncertainty Relations and Strong Sub-additivity of Quantum Channels

Quantum Physics 2023-01-23 v1 Operator Algebras

Abstract

We prove an entropic uncertainty relation for two quantum channels, extending the work of Frank and Lieb for quantum measurements. This is obtained via a generalized strong super-additivity (SSA) of quantum entropy. Motivated by Petz's algebraic SSA inequality, we also obtain a generalized SSA for quantum relative entropy. As a special case, it gives an improved data processing inequality.
