• Title: Comment on "High-Power Collective Charging of a Solid-State Quantum Battery"
• Abstract summary: We make it clear that the $sqrtN$ enhancement in [Physical Review Letters 120, 117702] is purely a classical effect, not attributable to quantum entanglement or collective phenomena. We believe that using the term "quantum battery" in this context may be inappropriate and misleading.

• Abstract: In the Letter [Physical Review Letters 120, 117702 (2018)], Ferraro \emph{et al.} claimed a quantum advantage in the Dicke quantum battery (QB), whereby $N$ two-level systems (TLS) are coupled to a common photonic mode of a cavity. They argued that compared with the so-called Rabi QB, the Dicke QB exhibits a $\sqrt{N}$ quantum enhancement in the charging power because of the entanglement created by the common photonic mode. In this Comment, however, we demonstrate that the apparent $\sqrt{N}$ enhancement actually comes from the stronger cavity electric (or magnetic) field under the setup discussed in [Physical Review Letters 120, 117702 (2018)]. This is a trivial classical effect, and there is no true "quantum advantage" in the charging power of the Dicke QB. While somewhat similar questions regarding the origin of the claimed "quantum advantage" have been raised before, here we would like to make it clear that the $\sqrt{N}$ enhancement in [Physical Review Letters 120, 117702 (2018)] is purely a classical effect, not attributable to quantum entanglement or collective phenomena. Therefore, we believe that using the term "quantum battery" in this context may be inappropriate and misleading.

We find that the degeneracy of Bohr frequencies in the $Xi$ system leads to the appearance of seventh order trap with a more significant attracting domain.

  We study the power of unentangled quantum proofs with non-negative amplitudes, a class which we denote $textQMA+(2)$. In particular, we design global protocols for small set expansion, unique games, and PCP verification. We show that QMA(2) is equal to $textQMA+(2)$ provided the gap of the latter is a sufficiently large constant.

• Bosonic quantum communication across arbitrarily high loss channels [68.58838842613457]
  A general attenuator $Phi_lambda, sigma$ is a bosonic quantum channel that acts by combining the input with a fixed environment state. We show that for any arbitrary value of $lambda>0$ there exists a suitable single-mode state $sigma(lambda)$. Our result holds even when we fix an energy constraint at the input of the channel, and implies that quantum communication at a constant rate is possible even in the limit of arbitrarily low transmissivity.
