In contrast to Shannon transmission codes, the size of identification (ID) codes for discrete memoryless channels (DMCs) experiences doubly exponential growth with the block length when randomized encoding is used. Additional enhancements within the ID paradigm can be realized through supplementary resources such as quantum entanglement, common randomness (CR), and feedback. Joint transmission and sensing demonstrate significant benefits over separation-based methods. Inspired by the significant impact of feedback on the ID capacity, our work delves into the realm of joint ID and sensing (JIDAS) for state-dependent multiple access channels (SD-MACs) with noiseless strictly casual feedback. Here, the senders aim to convey ID messages to the receiver while simultaneously sensing the channel states. We establish a lower bound on the capacity-distortion region of the SD-MACs. An example shows that JIDAS outperforms the separation-based approach.

This paper investigates the separation of channel intrinsic randomness and channel resolvability. We derive joint exponents, which are compared to the tandem exponents obtained with a separate approach. We prove at once, in a simple manner, achievability results for channel intrinsic randomness, random number generation, and channel resolvability. We also provide converse results in different special settings.

We present a learning task for quantum channels that exhibits an exponential separation in query complexity (in terms of the number of qubits) between two access models: i) black-box channel access and ii) access to a Stinespring dilation unitary of the channel along with its inverse. We consider the task of learning how close the unknown channel is to the set of unitary channels. This is characterized by the \textit{optimal average gate fidelity (OAGF)}, defined as the average gate fidelity maximized over all unitary channels. For constant Kraus rank and a dilation environment of dimension $\operatorname{polylog}(d)$, we provide an algorithm that estimates the OAGF to fixed additive accuracy using $\operatorname{polylog}(d)$ queries to the Stinespring dilation unitary and its inverse. In contradistinction, under the black-box access model, this estimation requires at least $Ω(\sqrt{d})$ queries, even for channels of constant Kraus rank and constant additive accuracy. As a corollary, we rule out a universal simulator that uses only $\operatorname{poly}(\log d,q)$ queries to the unknown channel to approximate the output of arbitrary $q$-query algorithms with access to a randomly-sampled Stinespring dilation unitary and its inverse, even to sufficiently small constant error. These results demonstrate that access to the system-environment joint evolution and its inverse can provide an exponential advantage in estimating an intrinsic property of a quantum channel.
