On Composite Quantum Hypothesis Testing
Mario Berta, Fernando G. S. L. Brandao, Christoph Hirche
We extend quantum Stein's lemma in asymmetric quantum hypothesis testing to composite null and alternative hypotheses. As our main result, we show that the asymptotic error exponen…
Bounds on Information Combining With Quantum Side Information
Christoph Hirche, David Reeb
"Bounds on information combining" are entropic inequalities that determine how the information (entropy) of a set of random variables can change when these are combined in certain…
Convolutional Polar Codes
Andrew James Ferris, Christoph Hirche, David Poulin
Arikan's Polar codes attracted much attention as the first efficiently decodable and capacity achieving codes. Furthermore, Polar codes exhibit an exponentially decreasing block er…
From log-determinant inequalities to Gaussian entanglement via recoverability theory
Ludovico Lami, Christoph Hirche, Gerardo Adesso +1
Many determinantal inequalities for positive definite block matrices are consequences of general entropy inequalities, specialised to Gaussian distributed vectors with prescribed c…
