Sending Quantum Information with Gaussian States

Quantum Physics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Quantum information characteristics, such as quantum mutual information, loss, noise and coherent information are explicitly calculated for Bosonic attenuation/amplification channel with input Gaussian state. The coherent information is shown to be negative for the values of the attenuation coefficient k<1/2k<1/\sqrt{2}.
