Abstract

Let ρ1,ρ2\rho_1, \rho_2 be quantum states and (ρ1,ρ2)D(ρ1,ρ2)(\rho_1,\rho_2) \mapsto D(\rho_1, \rho_2) be a scalar function such as the trace norm, the fidelity, and the relative entropy, etc. We determine optimal bounds for D(ρ1,Φ(ρ2))D(\rho_1, \Phi(\rho_2)) for ΦS\Phi \in \mathcal{S} for different class of functions D(,)D(\cdot, \cdot), where S\mathcal{S} is the set of unitary quantum channels, the set of mixed unitary channels, the set of unital quantum channels, and the set of all quantum channels.
