We investigate the Weyl channels being covariant with respect to the maximum commutative group of unitary operators. This class includes the quantum depolarizing channel and the "two-Pauli" channel as well. Then, we show that our estimation…
We give an elementary self-contained proof that the minimal entropy output of arbitrary products of channels $\rho \mapsto \frac{1}{d-1}(1-\rho^T)$ is additive.
We obtain two new additivity results of quantum channels. The first one is the additivity of the channel R\'enyi information associated with the sandwiched R\'enyi divergence of order $\alpha\in[\frac{1}{2},1)$. To prove this, we introduce…
Hastings recently provided a proof of the existence of channels which violate the additivity conjecture for minimal output entropy. In this paper we present an expanded version of Hastings' proof. In addition to a careful elucidation of the…
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…
We show that the minimum output entropy for all single-mode Gaussian channels is additive and is attained for Gaussian inputs. This allows the derivation of the channel capacity for a number of Gaussian channels, including that of the…
It is observed that the entropy reduction (the information gain in the initial terminology) of an efficient (ideal or pure) quantum measurement coincides with the generalized quantum mutual information of a q-c channel mapping an a priori…
We study quantum channels with respect to their image, i.e., the image of the set of density operators under the action of the channel. We first characterize the set of quantum channels having polytopic images and show that additivity of…
Quantum channel capacities give the fundamental performance limits for information flow over a communication channel. However, the prevalence of superadditivity is a major obstacle to understanding capacities, both quantitatively and…
We generalize recent results of Collins and Youn (2022), presenting new classes of quantum channels violating the additivity of the regularized minimum output entropy in the commuting-operator setup.
Additivity of the Holevo capacity is proved for product channels, under the condition that one of the channels is in a certain class of unital qubit channels, with the other completely arbitrary. This qubit class includes the depolarizing…
Quantitative analysis of discontinuity of basic characteristics of quantum states and channels is presented. First we consider general estimates for discontinuity jump (loss) of the von Neumann entropy for a given converging sequence of…
An example is given of a qubit quantum channel which requires four inputs to maximize the Holevo capacity. The example is one of a family of channels which are related to 3-state channels. The capacity of the product channel is studied and…
Evaluating the channel capacity is one of many key problems in information theory. In this work we derive rather-mild sufficient conditions under which the capacity is finite and achievable. These conditions are derived for generic,…
The channel output entropy of a transmitted sequence is the entropy of the possible channel outputs and similarly the channel input entropy of a received sequence is the entropy of all possible transmitted sequences. The goal of this work…
Multiplicativity of certain maximal p -> q norms of a tensor product of linear maps on matrix algebras is proved in situations in which the condition of complete positivity (CP) is either augmented by, or replaced by, the requirement that…
We define and investigate a notion of entropy for quantum error correcting codes. The entropy of a code for a given quantum channel has a number of equivalent realisations, such as through the coefficients associated with the Knill-Laflamme…

We derive a novel chain rule for a family of channel conditional entropies, covering von Neumann and sandwiched R\'{e}nyi entropies. In the process, we show that these channel conditional entropies are equal to their regularized version,…
