We prove additivity violation of minimum output entropy of quantum channels by straightforward application of \epsilon-net argument and L\'evy's lemma. The additivity conjecture was disproved initially by Hastings. Later, a proof via…
Quantum channels, which are completely positive and trace preserving mappings, can alter the dimension of a system; e.g., a quantum channel from a qubit to a qutrit. We study the convex set properties of dimension-altering quantum channels,…
