We investigate linear maps between matrix algebras that remain positive under tensor powers, i.e., under tensoring with $n$ copies of themselves. Completely positive and completely co-positive maps are trivial examples of this kind. We show…
Hastings recently reported a randomized construction of channels violating the minimum output entropy additivity conjecture. Here we revisit his argument, presenting a simplified proof. In particular, we do not resort to the exact…
In this paper we present a class of maps for which the multiplicativity of the maximal output p-norm holds when p is 2 and p is larger than or equal to 4. The class includes all positive trace-preserving maps from the matrix algebra on the…
Finding the minimal relative entropy of two quantum states under semidefinite constraints is a pivotal problem located at the mathematical core of various applications in quantum information theory. An efficient method for providing…
Given a quantum channel $\Phi $ in a Hilbert space $H$ put $\hat H_{\Phi}(\rho)=\min \limits_{\rho_{av}=\rho}\Sigma_{j=1}^{k}\pi_{j}S(\Phi (\rho_{j}))$, where $\rho_{av}=\Sigma_{j=1}^{k}\pi_{j}\rho_{j}$, the minimum is taken over all…

In the present paper we study the entropy gain $H(\Phi [\rho])-H(\rho)$ for infinite-dimensional channels $\Phi$. We show that unlike finite-dimensional case where the minimal entropy gain is always nonpositive \cite{al}, there is a plenty…
In this paper, we consider the minimal entropy of qubit states transmitted through two uses of a noisy quantum channel, which is modeled by the action of a completely positive trace-preserving (or stochastic) map. We provide strong support…
Let $G$ be a topological group, let $\phi$ be a continuous endomorphism of $G$ and let $H$ be a closed $\phi$-invariant subgroup of $G$. We study whether the topological entropy is an additive invariant, that is,…
Let $\Phi$ be a unital completely positive (UCP) map on the space of operators on some Hilbert space. We assume that $\Phi$ is $\eta$-idempotent, namely, $\|\Phi^2-\Phi\|_{\mathrm{cb}} \le\eta$, and construct an associated…
Given a linear map $\Phi : M_n \rightarrow M_m$, its multiplicity maps are defined as the family of linear maps $\Phi \otimes \text{id}_k : M_n \otimes M_k \rightarrow M_m \otimes M_k$, where $\text{id}_k$ denotes the identity on $M_k$. Let…
We prove multiplicativity of maximal output $p$ norm of classical noise channels and thermal noise channels of arbitrary modes for all $p>1$ under the assumption that the input signal states are Gaussian states. As a direct consequence, we…
We introduce a property of a matrix-valued linear map $\Phi$ that we call its "non-m-positive dimension" (or "non-mP dimension" for short), which measures how large a subspace can be if every quantum state supported on the subspace is…
We provide a complete picture of contractivity of trace preserving positive maps with respect to $p$-norms. We show that for $p>1$ contractivity holds in general if and only if the map is unital. When the domain is restricted to the…
We extend the definition of the conditional min-entropy from bipartite quantum states to bipartite quantum channels. We show that many of the properties of the conditional min-entropy carry over to the extended version, including an…
King and Ruskai asked whether the $p\to q$ norm of a completely positive map $\Phi$, acting between Schatten $p$ and $q$ classes of self-adjoint operators, $||\Phi||_{p\to q} = \max_{A=A^*} \frac{||\Phi(A)||_q}{||A||_p}$, is equal to the…
We prove that the quantum relative entropy decreases monotonically under the application of any positive trace-preserving linear map, for underlying separable Hilbert spaces. This answers in the affirmative a natural question that has been…
We compute the $\mathcal S^p \to \mathcal S^p$ norm of a general Gaussian gauge-covariant multi-mode channel for any $1\leq p<\infty$, where $\mathcal S^p$ is a Schatten space. As a consequence, we verify the Gaussian optimizer conjecture…
