Equivalence of Additivity Questions in Quantum Information Theory
نویسنده
چکیده
We reduce the number of open additivity problems in quantum information theory by showing that four of them are equivalent. Namely, we show that the conjectures of additivity of the minimum output entropy of a quantum channel, additivity of the Holevo expression for the classical capacity of a quantum channel, additivity of the entanglement of formation, and strong superadditivity of the entanglement of formation, are either all true or all false.

متن کاملFundamentals of Quantum Information Theory
In this paper we give a self contained introduction to the conceptional and mathematical foundations of quantum information theory. In the first part we introduce the basic notions like entanglement, channels, teleportation etc. and their mathematical description. The second part is focused on a presentation of the quantitative aspects of the theory. Topics discussed in this context include: en...
متن کاملSimplification of Additivity Conjecture in Quantum Information Theory
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 for a given channel so that they share the above additivity properties; we can reduce the conjectures for all channels to those for unital channels.
متن کاملThe additivity problem in quantum information theory
In this lecture we survey the present status of the additivity problem for the classical capacity and related characteristics of quantum channels – one of the most profound mathematical problems of quantum information theory.

متن کاملYet another additivity conjecture
In quantum information theory, there are several important open problems which center around whether certain quantities are additive or not. Especially, additivity conjecture about Holevo capacity and additivity/strong superadditivity conjecture about entanglement of formation have been attracting many researchers. It recently turned out that these are equivalent to the additivity of the minimu...
