MiS Preprint Repository

We have decided to discontinue the publication of preprints on our preprint server end of 2024. The publication culture within mathematics has changed so much due to the rise of repositories such as ArXiV (www.arxiv.org) that we are encouraging all institute members to make their preprints available there. An institute's repository in its previous form is, therefore, unnecessary. The preprints published to date will remain available here, but we will not add any new preprints here.

Universal upper bound for the Holevo information induced by a quantum operation

Lin Zhang, Junde Wu and Shao-Ming Fei

Abstract

Let HAHB be a bipartite system and ρAB a quantumstate on HAHB, ρA=TrB(ρAB), ρB=TrA(ρAB). Then each quantum operation ΦB on quantum system HB can induce a quantum ensemble {(pμ,ρA,μ)} on quantum system HA. In this paper, we show that the Holevo quantity Hi{(pμ,ρA,μ)} of the quantum ensemble {(pμ,ρA,μ)} can be upper bounded by S(ρB). By using the result, we answer partly a conjecture of Fannes, de Melo, Roga and Życzkowski.
