Irreversibility in quantum measurements is considered from the point of quantum information theory. For that purpose the information transfer between the measured object S and measuring system O is analyzed. It's found that due to the…
We pose a problem called ``broadcasting Holevo-information'': given an unknown state taken from an ensemble, the task is to generate a bipartite state transfering as much Holevo-information to each copy as possible. We argue that upper…
The quantum entanglement $E$ of a bipartite quantum Ising chain is compared with the mutual information $I$ between the two parts after a local measurement of the classical spin configuration. As the model is conformally invariant, the…
A classical random variable can be faithfully compressed into a sequence of bits with its expected length lies within one bit of Shannon entropy. We generalize this variable-length and faithful scenario to the general quantum source…
Bounds on information combining are entropic inequalities that determine how the information, or entropy, of a set of random variables can change when they are combined in certain prescribed ways. Such bounds play an important role in…

In quantum many-body dynamics, locally encoded information typically scrambles across the entire system, becoming inaccessible to local probes. The upper bound of accessible information of local probes can be characterized by the Holevo…
Quantum mechanics enables information-processing advantages even at the level of a single qubit. A paradigmatic example is the 2$\to$1 random access code (RAC), where a qubit outperforms a classical bit in retrieving encoded information. In…
PAE cannot be made a basis for either a generalized statistical mechanics or a generalized information theory. Either statistical independence must be waived, or the expression of the averaged conditional probability as the difference…
Quantum communication holds the potential to revolutionize information transmission by enabling secure data exchange that exceeds the limits of classical systems. One of the key performance metrics in quantum information theory, namely the…

What kind of object is a quantum state? Is it an object that encodes an exponentially growing amount of information (in the size of the system) or more akin to a probability distribution? It turns out that these questions are sensitive to…
