Holevo Superadditivity Bounds for Heralded Channels
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that for a particular class of quantum channels, which we call heralded channels, monogamy of squashed entanglement limits the superadditivity of Holevo capacity. Heralded channels provide a means to understand the quantum erasure channel composed with an arbitrary other quantum channel, as well as common situations in experimental quantum information that involve frequent loss of qubits or failure of trials. We also show how entanglement monogamy applies to non-classicality in quantum games, and we consider how faithful, monogamous entanglement measures may bound other entanglement-dependent quantities in many-party scenarios.

Tight continuity bounds for the quantum conditional mutual information, for the Holevo quantity and for capacities of quantum channels
First we consider Fannes’ type and Winter’s type tight continuity bounds for the quantum conditional mutual information and their specifications for states of special types. Then we analyse continuity of the Holevo quantity with respect to nonequivalent metrics on the set of discrete ensembles of quantum states. We show that the Holevo quantity is continuous on the set of all ensembles of m sta...
متن کاملAdditivity of the Classical Capacity of Entanglement-Breaking Quantum Channels
Abstract We show that for the tensor product of an entanglement-breaking quantum channel with an arbitrary quantum channel, both the minimum entropy of an output of the channel and the Holevo-Schumacher-Westmoreland capacity are additive. In addition, for the tensor product of two arbitrary quantum channels, we give a bound involving entanglement of formation for the amount of subadditivity (fo...
متن کاملRemarks on additivity of the Holevo channel capacity and of the entanglement of formation
The purpose of these notes is to discuss the relation between the additivity questions regarding the quantities (Holevo) capacity of a quantum channel T and entanglement of formation of a bipartite state ρ. In particular, using the Stinespring dilation theorem, we give a formula for the channel capacity involving entanglement of formation. This can be used to show that additivity of the latter ...
متن کاملUpper bounds for the Holevo quantity and their use
We present a family of easily computable upper bounds for the Holevo quantity of ensemble of quantum states depending on a reference state as a free parameter. These upper bounds are obtained by combining probabilistic and metric characteristics of the ensemble. We show that appropriate choice of the reference state gives tight upper bounds for the Holevo quantity which in many cases improve ex...
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...
