• Abstract: Given two quantum channels, we examine the task of determining whether they are compatible - meaning that one can perform both channels simultaneously but, in the future, choose exactly one channel whose output is desired (while forfeiting the output of the other channel). We show several results concerning this task. First, we show it is equivalent to the quantum state marginal problem, i.e., every quantum state marginal problem can be recast as the compatibility of two channels, and vice versa. Second, we show that compatible measure-and-prepare channels (i.e., entanglement-breaking channels) do not necessarily have a measure-and-prepare compatibilizing channel. Third, we extend the notion of the Jordan product of matrices to quantum channels and present sufficient conditions for channel compatibility. These Jordan products and their generalizations might be of independent interest. Last, we formulate the different notions of compatibility as semidefinite programs and numerically test when families of partially dephasing-depolaring channels are compatible.

  We study the resolvability of classical-quantum channels in two settings, for the channel output generated from the worst input, and form the fixed independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) input. For the fixed-input setting, while the direct part follows from the known quantum soft covering result, we exploit the recent alternative quantum Sanov theorem to solve the strong converse.

  We prove that every quantum channel $Lambda$ in arbitrary dimension, when contaminated by white noise, completely loses its capacity of transmitting quantum states. We also find the quantum capacity of the complement of the depolarizing channel in closed form.

  We study optimal ways to create a large amount of quantum coherence via quantum channels. correlations in multipartite systems do not enhance the ability of a quantum channel to create coherence. We show that a channel can destroy more coherence when acting on a subsystem of a bipartite state.

  Given a set of local dynamics, are they compatible with a global dynamics? We systematically formulate these questions as quantum channel marginal problems. These problems are strongly connected to the generalization of the no-signaling conditions to quantized inputs and outputs.

• Singularities, mixing and non-Markovianity of Pauli dynamical maps [0.0]
  We consider whether singularities of the channel can be produced by mixing non-singular channels. On the other hand, mixing channels with a singularity can lead to the elimination of singularities in the resultant channel. Results impose nontrivial restrictions on the experimental realization of non-invertible quantum channels by a process of channel mixing.

• Quantum Channel State Masking [78.7611537027573]
  Communication over a quantum channel that depends on a quantum state is considered when the encoder has channel side information (CSI) and is required to mask information on the quantum channel state from the decoder. A full characterization is established for the entanglement-assisted masking equivocation region, and a regularized formula is given for the quantum capacity-leakage function without assistance.
