One-Shot Hybrid State Redistribution

Abstract

We consider state redistribution of a "hybrid" information source that has both classical and quantum components. The sender transmits classical and quantum information at the same time to the receiver, in the presence of classical and quantum side information both at the sender and at the decoder. The available resources are shared entanglement, and noiseless classical and quantum communication channels. We derive one-shot direct and converse bounds for these three resources, represented in terms of the smooth conditional entropies of the source state. Various coding theorems for two-party source coding problems are systematically obtained by reduction from our results, including the ones that have not been addressed in previous literature.

One-Shot Trade-Off Bounds for State Redistribution of Classical-Quantum Sources

Eyuri Wakakuwa, Yoshifumi Nakata, Min-Hsiu Hsieh

We consider state redistribution of a "hybrid" information source that has both classical and quantum components. The sender transmits classical and quantum information at the same time to the receiver, in the presence of classical and quantum side information both at the sender and at the decoder. The available resources are shared entanglement, and noiseless classical and quantum communication channels. We derive one-shot direct and converse bounds for these three resources, represented in terms of the smooth conditional entropies of the source state. The two bounds coincide in the asymptotic limit of infinitely many copies and vanishingly small error. Various coding theorems for two-party communication tasks are obtained by reduction from our results.

One-Shot Triple-Resource Trade-Off in Quantum Channel Coding

Eyuri Wakakuwa, Yoshifumi Nakata

We analyze a task in which classical and quantum messages are simultaneously communicated via a noisy quantum channel, assisted with a limited amount of shared entanglement. We derive direct and converse bounds for the one-shot capacity region, represented by the smooth conditional entropies and the error tolerance. The proof is based on the randomized partial decoupling theorem, which is a generalization of the decoupling theorem. The two bounds match in the asymptotic limit of infinitely many uses of a memoryless channel and coincide with the previous result obtained by Hsieh and Wilde. Direct and converse bounds for various communication tasks are obtained as corollaries, both for the one-shot and asymptotic scenarios.

Randomized Partial Decoupling Unifies One-Shot Quantum Channel Capacities

Eyuri Wakakuwa, Yoshifumi Nakata

We analyze a task in which classical and quantum messages are simultaneously communicated via a noisy quantum channel, assisted with a limited amount of shared entanglement. We derive the direct and converse bounds for the one-shot capacity region. The bounds are represented in terms of the smooth conditional entropies and the error tolerance, and coincide in the asymptotic limit of infinitely many uses of the channel. The direct and converse bounds for various communication tasks are obtained as corollaries, both for one-shot and asymptotic scenarios. The proof is based on the randomized partial decoupling theorem, which is a generalization of the decoupling theorem. Thereby we provide a unified decoupling approach to the one-shot quantum channel coding, by fully incorporating classical communication, quantum communication and shared entanglement.

One-shot inner bounds for quantum multiple-access one-time pad

CHENG Feiran, LIU Xiaoming, Zhengjun Xi

We consider the one-shot coding of multiple access channels one-time pad. Suppose that the senders and the receiver share an entangled state in the multi-party systems. Using the position-based coding, each sender encodes the classical messages on their systems, then they transmit their systems over the ideal quantum channels. The receiver applies a decoding operator to all the systems in order to figure out which message was transmitted with respect to the quantum joint typicality lemma. We provide the upper bound of the information leakage by the convex split lemma. Combining quantum max-information with quantum hypothesis testing mutual information, we give the inner bound of the achievable rate.

Noisy Quantum State Redistribution With Promise and the Alpha-Bit

Anurag Anshu, Min-Hsiu Hsieh, Rahul Jain

We consider a variation of the well-studied quantum state redistribution task, in which the starting state is known only to the receiver Bob and not to the sender Alice. We refer to this as quantum state redistribution with a one-sided promise. In addition, we consider communication from Alice to Bob over a noisy channel N, instead of the noiseless channel, as is usually considered in state redistribution. We take a natural approach towards the solution of this problem where we “embed” the promise as part of the state and then invoke known protocols for quantum state redistribution composed with known protocols for transfer of quantum information over noisy channels. Using our approach, we are able to reproduce the Alpha-bit capacities with or without entanglement assistance in Hayden and Penington, using known protocols for quantum state redistribution and quantum communication over noisy channels. Furthermore, we generalize the entanglement assisted classical Alpha-bit capacity, showing that any quantum state redistribution protocol can be used as a black box to simulate classical communication.

Quantum State Redistribution for Ensemble Sources

Zahra Baghali Khanian, Andreas Winter

We consider a generalization of the quantum state redistribution task, where pure multipartite states from an ensemble source are distributed among an encoder, a decoder and a reference system. The encoder, Alice, has access to two quantum systems: system A which she compresses and sends to the decoder, Bob, and the side information system C which she wants to keep at her site. Bob has access to quantum side information in a system B, wants to decode the compressed information in such a way to preserve the correlations with the reference system on average. As figures of merit, we consider both block error (which is the usual one in source coding) and per-copy error (which is more akin to rate-distortion theory), and find the optimal compression rate for the second criterion, and achievable and converse bounds for the first. The latter almost match in general, up to an asymptotic error and an unbounded auxiliary system; for so-called irreducible sources they are provably the same. Full paper forthcoming [1].
