Time-optimal control of SU(2) quantum operations

A. Garon, S. J. Glaser, D. Sugny

We propose an analysis of the time-optimal control of SU(2) quantum operations. By using the Pontryagin Maximum Principle, we show how to determine the optimal trajectory reaching…

The Classical-Quantum Multiple Access Channel with Conferencing Encoders and with Common Messages

Holger Boche, Janis Noetzel

We prove coding theorems for two scenarios of cooperating encoders for the multiple access channel with two classical inputs and one quantum output. In the first scenario (ccq-MAC…

Quantum Subdivision Capacities and Continuous-time Quantum Coding

Alexander Müller-Hermes, David Reeb, Michael M. Wolf

Quantum memories can be regarded as quantum channels that transmit information through time without moving it through space. Aiming at a reliable storage of information we may thus…

Coexistence does not imply joint measurability

David Reeb, Daniel Reitzner, Michael M. Wolf

One of the hallmarks of quantum theory is the realization that distinct measurements cannot in general be performed simultaneously, in stark contrast to classical physics. In this…

On quantum Renyi entropies: a new generalization and some properties

Martin Müller-Lennert, Frédéric Dupuis, Oleg Szehr +2

The Renyi entropies constitute a family of information measures that generalizes the well-known Shannon entropy, inheriting many of its properties. They appear in the form of uncon…
