On the entanglement-assisted classical capacity of infinite-dimensional quantum channels

Abstract

The coding theorem for the entanglement-assisted communication via infinite-dimensional quantum channel with linear constraint is extended to a natural degree of generality. Relations between the entanglement-assisted classical capacity and the $χ$-capacity of constrained channels are obtained and conditions for their coincidence are given. Sufficient conditions for continuity of the entanglement-assisted classical capacity as a function of a channel are obtained. Some applications of the obtained results to analysis of Gaussian channels are considered. A general (continuous) version of the fundamental relation between the coherent information and the measure of privacy of classical information transmission by infinite-dimensional quantum channel is proved.

Conditions for equality between entanglement-assisted and unassisted classical capacities of a quantum channel

Максим Евгеньевич Широков

Several relations between the Holevo capacity and the entanglement-assisted classical capacity of a quantum channel are proved, necessary and sufficient conditions for their coincidence are obtained. In particular, it is shown that these capacities coincide if (correspondingly, only if) the channel (correspondingly, the $χ$--essential part of the channel) belongs to the class of classical-quantum channels (the $χ$-essential part is a restriction of a channel obtained by discarding all states useless for transmission of classical information). The obtained conditions and their corollaries are generalized to channels with linear constraints. By using these conditions it is shown that the question of coincidence of the Holevo capacity and the entanglement-assisted classical capacity depends on the constraint (even for classical-quantum channels). Properties of the difference between the quantum mutual information and the $χ$-function (constrained Holevo capacity) of a quantum channel are explored.

Entanglement-Assisted Capacities of Constrained Quantum Channels

Alexander Semenovich Holevo

In this paper we fill a gap in previous works by proving the conjectured formula for the classical entanglement-assisted capacity of a quantum channel with additive constraint (such as the Bosonic Gaussian channel). Our main tools are the coding theorem for classical-quantum constrained channels and a finite-dimensional approximation of the input density operators for entanglement-assisted capacity. We also give sufficient conditions under which suprema in the capacity formulas are achieved.

A criterion for coincidence of the entanglement-assisted classical capacity and the Holevo capacity of a quantum channel

Максим Евгеньевич Широков

It is easy to show coincidence of the entanglement-assisted classical capacity and the Holevo capacity for any c-q channel between finite dimensional quantum systems. In this paper we prove the converse assertion: coincidence of the above-mentioned capacities of a quantum channel implies that the $χ$-essential part of this channel is a c-q channel (the $χ$-essential part is a restriction of a channel obtained by discarding all input states useless for transmission of classical information). The above observations are generalized to infinite dimensional quantum channels with linear constraints by using the obtained conditions for coincidence of the quantum mutual information and the constrained Holevo capacity.

Conditions for coincidence of the classical capacity and entanglement-assisted capacity of a quantum channel

Максим Евгеньевич Широков

Several relations between the Holevo capacity and entanglement-assisted classical capacity of a quantum channel are proved; necessary and sufficient conditions for their coincidence are obtained. In particular, it is shown that these capacities coincide if (respectively, only if) the channel (respectively, the χ -essential part of the channel) belongs to the class of classical-quantum channels (the χ -essential part is a restriction of a channel obtained by discarding all states that are useless for transmission of classical information). The obtained conditions and their corollaries are generalized to channels with linear constraints. By using these conditions it is shown that the question of coincidence of the Holevo capacity and entanglement-assisted classical capacity depends on the form of a constraint. Properties of the difference between quantum mutual information and the χ -function of a quantum channel are explored.

In this paper we fil a gap in previous work by proving the conjectured formula for the antanglement-assisted capacity of quantum channel with additive input constraint (such as Bosonic Gaussian channel). The main tools are the coding theorem for classical-quantum constrained channels and a finite dimensional approximation of the input density operators for the entanglement-assisted capacity.
