A multiplicativity conjecture for quantum communication channels is formulated, validity of which for the values of parameter $p$ close to 1 is related to the solution of the fundamental problem of additivity of the channel capacity in quantum information theory. The proof of the conjecture is given for the case of natural numbers $p$.
The maximal p-norm multiplicativity conjecture is false
对于所有的1 < p < 2，我们证明了具有非乘法最大p-模的量子信道的存在性。等价地，对于所有1 < p < 2，量子信道的阶p的最小输出Renyi熵不是可加的。发现的违规行为很大。当p接近1时，产品通道的p阶最小输出Renyi熵不需要显著大于其各个因子的最小输出熵。由于p=1对应于冯诺伊曼熵，这些反例表明，如果量子信息理论的可加性猜想是正确的，它不能被证明为最大p-范数乘法的结果。
We compute the $\mathcal S^p \to \mathcal S^p$ norm of a general Gaussian gauge-covariant multi-mode channel for any $1\leq p<\infty$, where $\mathcal S^p$ is a Schatten space. As a consequence, we verify the Gaussian optimizer conjecture and the multiplicativity conjecture in these cases.
Additivity violation of minimum output entropy, which shows non-classical properties in quantum communication, had been proved in most cases for random quantum channels defined by Haar-distributed unitary matrices. In this paper, we investigate random completely positive maps made of Gaussian Unitary Ensembles and Ginibre Ensembles regarding this matter. Using semi-circular systems and circular systems of free probability, we not only show the multiplicativity violation of maximum output norms in the asymptotic regimes but also prove the additivity violation via Haagerup inequality for a new c…

The quantum Gaussian optimizers conjecture says that q-p norm of a Bosonic Gaussian channel is attained on "Gaussian" operators. Recently R.L. Frank and E.H. Lieb confirmed the hypothesis in the case q=p for gauge-covariant channels with arbitrary number of modes s [3]. In the present note we remark that in the case q=p our results in [6] and [9] in fact allow to prove the hypothesis for all Gaussian channels. Thus the condition of gauge covariance, rather crucial in the case q=1,s>1, plays no role in the case q=p.
We prove in the multimode scenario a fundamental relation between the Wehrl and the von Neumann entropy, stating that the minimum Wehrl entropy among all the quantum states with a given von Neumann entropy is achieved by thermal Gaussian states. We also prove that thermal Gaussian input states minimize the output von Neumann entropy of multimode quantum Gaussian attenuators, amplifiers and phase-contravariant channels among all the input states diagonal in some product basis and with a given entropy. This result constitutes a major step towards the proof of the same property for generic input …
We consider sequences of random quantum channels defined using the Stinespring formula with Haar-distributed random orthogonal matrices. For any fixed sequence of input states, we study the asymptotic eigenvalue distribution of the outputs through tensor powers of random channels. We show that the input states achieving minimum output entropy are tensor products of maximally entangled states (Bell states) when the tensor power is even. This phenomenon is completely different from the one for random quantum channels constructed from Haar-distributed random unitary matrices, which leads us to fo…
We revisit in this paper the problem of connectivity correlations in the Fortuin-Kasteleyn cluster representation of the two-dimensional $Q$-state Potts model conformal field theory. In a recent work [M. Picco, S. Ribault and R. Santachiara, SciPost Phys. 1, 009 (2016); arXiv:1607.07224], results for the four-point functions were obtained, based on the bootstrap approach, combined with simple conjectures for the spectra in the different fusion channels. In this paper, we test these conjectures using lattice algebraic considerations combined with extensive numerical studies of correlations on i…
We survey the state of the art for the proof of the quantum Gaussian optimizer conjectures of quantum information theory. These fundamental conjectures state that quantum Gaussian input states are the solution to several optimization problems involving quantum Gaussian channels. These problems are the quantum counterpart of three fundamental results of functional analysis and probability: the Entropy Power Inequality, the sharp Young's inequality for convolutions, and the theorem "Gaussian kernels have only Gaussian maximizers." Quantum Gaussian channels play a key role in quantum communicatio…
