We present a proof for the quantum channel coding theorem which relies on the fact that a randomly chosen code space typically is highly suitable for quantum error correction. In this sense, the proof is close to Shannon's original…

We study commitment scheme for classical-quantum channels. To accomplish this we define various notions of commitment capacity for these channels and prove matching upper and lower bound on it in terms of the conditional entropy. Our…

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 establish the classical capacity of optical quantum channels as a sharp transition between two regimes---one which is an error-free regime for communication rates below the capacity, and the other in which the probability of correctly…

We consider a distributed quantum hypothesis testing problem with communication constraints, in which the two hypotheses correspond to two different states of a bipartite quantum system, multiple identical copies of which are shared between…

Quantum error-correcting codes are analyzed from an information-theoretic perspective centered on quantum conditional and mutual entropies. This approach parallels the description of classical error correction in Shannon theory, while…

We introduce and analyse the problem of encoding classical information into different resources of a quantum state. More precisely, we consider a general class of communication scenarios characterised by encoding operations that commute…

Information must take up space, must weigh, and its flux must be limited. Quantum limits on communication and information storage leading to these conclusions are here described. Quantum channel capacity theory is reviewed for both steady…
