We simplify some conjectures in quantum information theory; the additivity of minimal output entropy, the multiplicativity of maximal output p-norm and the superadditivity of convex closure of output entropy. We construct a unital channel…

When can noiseless quantum information be sent across noisy quantum devices? And at what maximum rate? These questions lie at the heart of quantum technology, but remain unanswered because of non-additivity -- a fundamental synergy which…

The quantum Gaussian optimizers conjecture says that q-p norm of a Bosonic Gaussian channel is attained on "Gaussian" operators. Recently R.L. Frank and E.H. Lieb confirmed the hypothesis in the case q=p for gauge-covariant channels with…
