Additivity and multiplicativity properties of some Gaussian channels for Gaussian inputs

arXiv:quant-ph/0511006 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.73.012330

Abstract

We prove multiplicativity of maximal output norm of classical noise channels and thermal noise channels of arbitrary modes for all under the assumption that the input signal states are Gaussian states. As a direct consequence, we also show the additivity of the minimal output entropy and that of the energy-constrained Holevo capacity for those Gaussian channels under Gaussian inputs. To the best of our knowledge, newly discovered majorization relation on symplectic eigenvalues, which is also of independent interest, plays a central role in the proof.
