• Title: The Generalized Capacity of a Quantum Channel
• Authors: Zahra Baghali Khanian
• Abstract summary: The transmission of classical information over a classical channel gave rise to the classical capacity theorem with the optimal rate in terms of the classical mutual information. Despite classical information being a subset of quantum information, the rate of the quantum capacity problem is expressed in terms of the coherent information. We define a transmission task, which includes as specific instances both classical information and quantum information capacity problems, and show that the transmission capacity of this task is characterized by the generalized information.

• Abstract: The transmission of classical information over a classical channel gave rise to the classical capacity theorem with the optimal rate in terms of the classical mutual information. Despite classical information being a subset of quantum information, the rate of the quantum capacity problem is expressed in terms of the coherent information, which does not mathematically generalize the classical mutual information. Additionally, there are multiple capacity theorems with distinct formulas when dealing with transmitting information over a noisy quantum channel. This leads to the question of what constitutes a mathematically accurate quantum generalization of classical mutual information and whether there exists a quantum task that directly extends the classical capacity problem. In this paper, we address these inquiries by introducing a quantity called the generalized information, which serves as a mathematical extension encompassing both classical mutual information and coherent information. We define a transmission task, which includes as specific instances both classical information and quantum information capacity problems, and show that the transmission capacity of this task is characterized by the generalized information.

  In quantum information theory, quantum uncommon information is the minimal amount of entanglement required for the quantum communication task of quantum state exchange. We develop a subspace exchange strategy that leverages a common subspace of two parties to identify the unnecessary qubits for exchange. Our bounds provide more precise estimations for the quantum uncommon information.
