In modern quantum information theory one deals with an idealized situation when the spacetime dependence of quantum phenomena is neglected. However the transmission and processing of (quantum) information is a physical process in spacetime.…

A model of a quantum information source is proposed, based on the Gibbs ensemble of ideal (free) particles (bosons or fermions). We identify the (thermodynamic) von Neumann entropy as the information rate and establish the classical…

It is known that mutually unbiased bases, whenever they exist, are optimal in an information theoretic sense for the determination of unknown state of a quantum ensemble. These bases may not exist in most dimensions and some suboptimal…

We introduce information-theoretic definitions for noise and disturbance in quantum measurements and prove a state-independent noise-disturbance tradeoff relation that these quantities have to satisfy in any conceivable setup. Contrary to…

A family of information theoretic models of communication was introduced more than a decade ago to explain the origins of Zipf's law for word frequencies. The family is a based on a combination of two information theoretic principles:…

Additive measures for information and disturbance in quantum measurements of a system are defined from well-known multiplicative measures such as estimation and operation fidelities using a logarithm. This is motivated by the fact that…

The theory of majorization has seen substantial application in quantum information. Its framework predicates on the comparability between real vectors. We explore the antithesis of this premise, namely, incomparability. Specifically, we…

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…

Quadrature rules estimate the value of an integral when the function is given by a table of values. Every binary string defines a quadrature rule by choosing which endpoint of each interval represents the interval. The standard rules, such…
