چکیده

We show that, in a multiparty setting, two nondistillable (bound-entangled) states tensored together can make a distillable state. This is an example of true superadditivity of distillable entanglement. We also show that unlockable bound-entangled states cannot be asymptotically unentangled, providing the first proof that some states are truly bound-entangled in the sense of being both nondistillable and nonseparable asymptotically.

Entanglement can completely defeat quantum noise.

We describe two quantum channels that individually cannot send any classical information without some chance of decoding error. But together a single use of each channel can send quantum information perfectly reliably. This proves that the zero-error classical capacity exhibits superactivation, the extreme form of the superadditivity phenomenon in which entangled inputs allow communication over...

Superadditivity of distillable entanglement From Quantum Teleportation

We show that the phenomenon of superadditivity of distillable entanglement observed in multipartite quantum systems results from the consideration of states created during the execution of the standard end-to-end quantum teleportation protocol (and a few additional local operations and classical communication (LOCC) steps) on a linear chain of singlets. Some of these intermediate states are ten...

When does noise increase the quantum capacity?

Superactivation is the property that two channels with zero quantum capacity can be used together to yield a positive capacity. Here we demonstrate that this effect exists for a wide class of inequivalent channels, none of which can simulate each other. We also consider the case where one of two zero-capacity channels is applied, but the sender is ignorant of which one is applied. We find examp...

Dynamics of entangled quantum optical system in independent media

We study the dynamics of two three-level atoms interacting with independent bosonic Lorentzian reservoirs at zero temperature. Such systems can be created in far astronomical objects. Quantum mechanical behaviour of these particles can produce detectable effects on the spectroscopic identifications of these objects, if such behaviour remain stable during the interaction with their media. It is ...

Quantum Information Theory

Finally, here is a modern, self-contained text on quantum information theory suitable for graduate-level courses. Developing the subject “from the ground up,” it covers classical results as well as major advances of the past decade. Beginning with an extensive overview of classical information theory suitable for the non-expert, the author then turns his attention to quantum mechanics for quant...
