Locally accessible information from multipartite ensembles

Abstract

We present a universal Holevo-like upper bound on the locally accessible information for arbitrary multipartite ensembles. This bound allows us to analyze the indistinguishability of a set of orthogonal states under LOCC. We also derive the upper bound for the capacity of distributed dense coding with multipartite senders and multipartite receivers.

Locally Accessible Information from Multipartite Ensembles

Song Wei

We present a universal Holevo-like upper bound on the locally accessible information for arbitrary multipartite ensembles. This bound allows us to analyze the indistinguishability of a set of orthogonal states under local operations and classical communication. We also derive the upper bound for the capacity of distributed dense coding with multipartite senders and multipartite receivers.

Locally Accessible Information: How Much Can the Parties Gain by Cooperating?

Piotr Badziąg, Michał Horodecki, Aditi Sen +1 more

We investigate measurements of bipartite ensembles restricted to local operations and classical communication and find a universal Holevo-like upper bound on the locally accessible information. We analyze our bound and exhibit a class of states which saturate it. Finally, we link the bound to the problem of quantification of the nonlocality of the operations necessary to extract locally inaccessible information.

DENSE CODING WITH MULTIPARTITE QUANTUM STATES

Dagmar Bruß, Maciej Lewenstein, Aditi Sen +3 more

We consider generalizations of the dense coding protocol with an arbitrary number of senders and either one or two receivers, sharing a multiparty quantum state, and using a noiseless channel. For the case of a single receiver, the capacity of such information transfer is found exactly. It is shown that the capacity is not enhanced by allowing the senders to perform joint operations. We provide a nontrivial upper bound on the capacity in the case of two receivers. We also give a classification of the set of all multiparty states in terms of their usefulness for dense coding. We provide examples for each of these classes, and discuss some of their properties.

Distributed Quantum Dense Coding

Dagmar Bruß, Giacomo Mauro D’Ariano, Maciej Lewenstein +3 more

We introduce the notion of distributed quantum dense coding, i.e., the generalization of quantum dense coding to more than one sender and more than one receiver. We show that global operations (as compared to local operations) of the senders do not increase the information transfer capacity, in the case of a single receiver. For the case of two receivers, using local operations and classical communication, a nontrivial upper bound for the capacity is derived. We propose a general classification scheme of quantum states according to their usefulness for dense coding. In the bipartite case (for any dimensions), bound entanglement is not useful for this task.

Distillation protocols that involve local distinguishing: Composing upper and lower bounds on locally accessible information

Aditi Sen, Ujjwal Sen, Maciej Lewenstein

We find a universal lower bound on locally accessible information for arbitrary bipartite quantum ensembles, when one of the parties is two dimensional. In higher dimensions and in a higher number of parties, the bound is on accessible information by separable operations. We show that for any given density matrix (of an arbitrary number of parties and dimensions), there exists an ensemble, which averages to the given density matrix and whose locally accessible information saturates the lower bound. Moreover, we give a general method to obtain bounds on the yield of singlets in distillation protocols that involves local distinguishing, by using lower and upper bounds on locally accessible information. We then illustrate it by using our lower bound, along with a previously obtained upper bound, on locally accessible information.

Ensemble-Dependent Bounds for Accessible Information in Quantum Mechanics

Christopher A. Fuchs, Carlton M. Caves

We simplify the derivation of the Holevo upper bound on the maximum information extractable from a quantum communication channel. This simplification leads to upper and lower bounds for binary channels, both of which depend explicitly on the message ensemble.
