Optimal rates for achieving an information processing task are often characterized in terms of regularized information measures. In many cases of quantum tasks, we do not know how to compute such quantities. Here, we exploit the symmetries…

We introduce an axiomatic approach for channel divergences and channel relative entropies that is based on three information-theoretic axioms of monotonicity under superchannels (i.e. generalized data processing inequality), additivity…

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…
