AI总结:
本文证明了在无预共享纠缠的情况下,使用qudit发送随机信息不优于经典dit,并给出了区分混合量子态的成功概率上界。
摘要:
我们考虑以下简单场景:Alice有多个可能的消息之一,这些消息来自已知的分布,她希望最大化Bob正确猜测其消息的概率。我们证明,如果Alice只能向Bob发送一个qudit,而没有预先共享的纠缠态,那么在发送qudit时永远不会有优势,相比发送经典dit。这一结果此前仅在均匀分布的情况下已知。我们还证明了这一结果的混合态推广形式,即对单次测量区分混合量子态的成功概率的上界。该上界仅基于维度、概率分布和态的本征值,并在这些上界中是紧致的。
英文摘要:
We consider the following simple scenario: Alice has one of many possible messages, drawn from a known distribution, and wants to maximize the probability that Bob guesses her message correctly. We prove that if Alice can send only a qudit to Bob, without preshared entanglement, there is never any advantage over sending him a classical dit. This result was previously known only for a uniform distribution. We also prove a mixed-state generalization of this result in the form of an upper bound on the success probability of discriminating between mixed quantum states with a single measurement. This bound is based solely on the dimension, probability distribution, and eigenvalues of the states and is sharp among such bounds.
