The entropy H_T(rho) of a state rho with respect to a channel T and the Holevo capacity of the channel require the solution of difficult variational problems. For a class of 1-qubit channels, which contains all the extremal ones, the…
Shor's r-algorithm (Shor, Zhurbenko (1971), Shor (1979)) with space stretching in the direction of difference of two adjacent subgradients is a competitive method of nonsmooth optimization. However, the original r-algorithm is designed to…
This paper investigates a function of macroscopic variables known as the singular potential, building on previous work by Ball and Majumdar. The singular potential is a function of the admissible statistical averages of probability…
We show that the minimum Renyi entropy output of a quantum channel is locally additive for Renyi parameter alpha>1. While our work extends the results of [10] (in which local additivity was proven for alpha=1), it is based on several new…
We consider countable linear orders and study the quasi-order of convex embeddability and its induced equivalence relation. We obtain both combinatorial and descriptive set-theoretic results, and further extend our research to the case of…
Single-shot quantum channel discrimination is a fundamental task in quantum information theory. It is well known that entanglement with an ancillary system can help in this task, and furthermore that an ancilla with the same dimension as…
We propose an iterative method for approximating the capacity of classical-quantum channels with a discrete input alphabet and a finite dimensional output, possibly under additional constraints on the input distribution. Based on duality of…
It is shown that for real finite dimensional Hilbert spaces the additivity property of the minimum output entropy for quantum channels is always true.
The paper presents exponentially-strong converses for source-coding, channel coding, and hypothesis testing problems. More specifically, it presents alternative proofs for the well-known exponentially-strong converse bounds for almost…
We present a constructive example of violation of additivity of minimum output R\'enyi entropy for each p>2. The example is provided by antisymmetric subspace of a suitable dimension. We discuss possibility of extension of the result to go…
This paper is the first of a series of three dedicated to a proof of the Arnold diffusion conjecture for perturbations of {convex} integrable Hamiltonian systems on $\mathbb{A}^3=\mathbb{T}^3\times \mathbb{R}^3$. We consider systems of the…
Consider a binary additive noise channel with noiseless feedback. When the noise is a stationary and ergodic process $\mathbf{Z}$, the capacity is $1-\mathbb{H}(\mathbf{Z})$ ($\mathbb{H}(\cdot)$ denoting the entropy rate). It is shown…
A key idea in convex optimization theory is to use well-structured affine functions to approximate general functions, leading to impactful developments in conjugate functions and convex duality theory. This raises the question: what are the…
This paper quantifies the intuitive observation that adding noise reduces available information by means of non-linear strong data processing inequalities. Consider the random variables $W\to X\to Y$ forming a Markov chain, where $Y=X+Z$…
We study classical capacities of quantum multi-access channels in geometric terms revealing breaking of additivity of Holevo-like capacity. This effect is purely quantum since, as one points out, any classical multi-access channels have…
Let $\mu$ and $\nu$ be probability measures on $\mathbb{R}$ with compact support, and let $\mu \boxplus \nu$ denote their additive free convolution. We show that for $z \in \mathbb{R}$ greater than the sum of essential suprema of $\mu$ and…
We investigate decoherence induced by a quantum channel in terms of minimal output entropy and of map entropy. The latter is the von Neumann entropy of the Jamiolkowski state of the channel. Both quantities admit q-Renyi versions. We prove…
The channel output entropy of a transmitted sequence is the entropy of the possible channel outputs and similarly the channel input entropy of a received sequence is the entropy of all possible transmitted sequences. The goal of this work…
A simple criterion for local equality between the constrained Holevo capacity and the quantum mutual information of a quantum channel is obtained. It implies that the set of all states for which this equality holds is determined by the…
We develop a systematic approach, based on convex programming and real analysis, for obtaining upper bounds on the capacity of the binary deletion channel and, more generally, channels with i.i.d. insertions and deletions. Other than the…
