• Abstract: Divergence chain rules for channels relate the divergence of a pair of channel inputs to the divergence of the corresponding channel outputs. An important special case of such a rule is the data-processing inequality, which tells us that if the same channel is applied to both inputs then the divergence cannot increase. Based on direct matrix analysis methods, we derive several R\'enyi divergence chain rules for channels in the quantum setting. Our results simplify and in some cases generalise previous derivations in the literature.

• Reverse-type Data Processing Inequality [11.013342155938801]
  A quantum data processing inequality asserts that two quantum states become harder to distinguish when a noisy channel is applied. A reverse quantum data processing inequality characterizes whether distinguishability is preserved after the application of a noisy channel. In this work, we explore these concepts through contraction and expansion coefficients of the relative entropy of quantum channels.

  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 consider the problem in its generality for memoryless channels with finite output, but arbitrary input alphabets. Our main findings are that the maximum number of messages thus identifiable scales super-exponentially as $2R,nlog n$ with the block length $n$. Results are shown to generalise directly to classical-quantum channels with finite-dimensional output quantum system.

This work demonstrates how these correlations can be exploited for variance reduction in the computation of observables.

  We consider the important class of quantum operations called entanglement breaking channels. We show how every such channel induces matrix representations that have the same non-zero spectrum as the channel. We then use this to investigate when entanglement breaking channels are primitive, and prove this depends on primitivity of the matrix representations.

• Detecting positive quantum capacities of quantum channels [9.054540533394926]
  A noisy quantum channel can be used to reliably transmit quantum information at a non-zero rate. This is because it requires computation of the channel's coherent information for an unbounded number of copies of the channel. We show that a channel's ability to transmit information is intimately connected to the relative sizes of its input, output, and environment spaces.

• 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.
