The pure-loss channel is a fundamental model for describing noise in bosonic quantum platforms. It is characterised by a single parameter, the transmissivity, which quantifies the fraction of the input energy that reaches the output of the…

We address the problem of simulating an arbitrary Markovian interactive protocol over binary symmetric channels with crossover probability $\varepsilon$. We are interested in the achievable rates of reliable simulation, i.e., in…
