• Abstract: With the recent development of quantum information theory, some attempts exist to construct information theory beyond quantum theory. Here we consider hypothesis testing relative entropy and one-shot classical capacity, that is, the optimal rate of classical information transmitted by using a single channel under a constraint of a certain error probability, in general physical theories where states and measurements are operationally defined. Then we obtain the upper bound of one-shot classical capacity by generalizing the method given by Wang and Renner [Phys. Rev. Lett. 108, 200501 (2012)]. Also, we derive the lower bound of the capacity by showing the existence of a good code that can transmit classical information with a certain error probability. Applying the above two bounds, we prove the asymptotic equivalence between classical capacity and hypothesis testing relative entropy even in any general physical theory.

  General Probabilistic Theories (GPTs) is a new information theoretical approach to single out standard quantum theory. We focus on the bound of the performance for an information task called state discrimination in general models. We characterize standard quantum theory out of general models in GPTs by the bound of the performance for state discrimination.

  We introduce a formulation of quantum theory (QT) as a general probabilistic theory but expressed via quasi-expectation operators (QEOs) We will show that QT for both distinguishable and indistinguishable particles can be formulated in this way. We will show that finitely exchangeable probabilities for a classical dice are as weird as QT.

• Quantum Darwinism and the spreading of classical information in non-classical theories [0.0]
  Quantum Darwinism posits that the emergence of a classical reality relies on the spreading of classical information from a quantum system to many parts of its environment. We find that every theory with non-classical features that admits this idealized spreading of classical information must have both entangled states and entangled measurements. Our result suggests the counter-intuitive general principle that in the presence of local non-classicality, a classical world can only emerge if this non-classicality can be "amplified" to a form of entanglement.

• Emergence of classical behavior in the early universe [68.8204255655161]
  Three notions are often assumed to be essentially equivalent, representing different facets of the same phenomenon. We analyze them in general Friedmann-Lemaitre- Robertson-Walker space-times through the lens of geometric structures on the classical phase space. The analysis shows that: (i) inflation does not play an essential role; classical behavior can emerge much more generally; (ii) the three notions are conceptually distinct; classicality can emerge in one sense but not in another.
