Overcoming repeaterless bounds for the secret key rate capacity of quantum key distribution protocols is still a challenge with current technology. D. Luong et al. [Applied Physics B 122, 96 (2016)] proposed a protocol to beat a…
We investigate the classical capacity of two quantum channels with memory: a periodic channel with depolarizing channel branches, and a convex combination of depolarizing channels. We prove that the capacity is additive in both cases. As a…
The one-bit deletion and duplication channel is investigated. An input to this channel consists of a block of bits which experiences either a deletion, or a duplication, or remains unchanged. For this channel a capacity expression is…
Transmitting data reliably over noisy communication channels is one of the most important applications of information theory, and well understood when the channel is accurately modelled by classical physics. However, when quantum effects…
We show that no source encoding is needed in the definition of the capacity of a quantum channel for carrying quantum information. This allows us to use the coherent information maximized over all sources and and block sizes, but not…
Commitment is a key primitive which resides at the heart of several cryptographic protocols. Noisy channels can help realize information-theoretically secure commitment schemes, however, their imprecise statistical characterization can…
We present novel bounds on the capacity of the independent and identically distributed binary deletion channel. Four upper bounds are obtained by providing the transmitter and the receiver with genie-aided information on suitably-defined…
A minimax converse for the identification via channels is derived. By this converse, a general formula for the identification capacity, which coincides with the transmission capacity, is proved without the assumption of the strong converse…
We consider the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wiretap channel under a minimum receiver-side power constraint in addition to the usual maximum transmitter-side power constraint. This problem is motivated by energy harvesting…
The highest information rate at which quantum error-correction schemes work reliably on a channel, which is called the quantum capacity, is proven to be lower bounded by the limit of the quantity termed coherent information maximized over…

This paper studies the computability of the secrecy capacity of fast-fading wiretap channels from an algorithmic perspective, examining whether it can be computed algorithmically or not. To address this question, the concept of Turing…
Every channel can be expressed as a convex combination of deterministic channels with each deterministic channel corresponding to one particular intrinsic state. Such convex combinations are in general not unique, each giving rise to a…

Synchronization channels, such as the well-known deletion channel, are surprisingly harder to analyze than memoryless channels, and they are a source of many fundamental problems in information theory and theoretical computer science. One…
The reliability function gives the rate of exponential convergence to zero of the error probability in a communication channel. In this paper bounds for the reliability function of a quantum pure state channel are given, reminiscent of the…
We analyze different aspects of multiparty communication over quantum memoryless channels and generalize some of key results known from bipartite channels to that of multiparty scenario. In particular, we introduce multiparty versions of…
The capacity of a time-varying block-memoryless channel in which the transmitter and the receiver have access to (possibly different) noisy causal channel side information (CSI) is obtained. It is shown that the capacity formula obtained in…
One of the main figures of merit for quantum memories and quantum communication devices is their quantum capacity. It has been studied for arbitrary kinds of quantum channels, but its practical estimation has so far been limited to devices…
Losses in quantum communication lines severely affect the rates of reliable information transmission and are usually considered to be state-independent. However, the loss probability does depend on the system state in general, with the…
