We introduce a generalized framework for private quantum codes using von Neumann algebras and the structure of commutants. This leads naturally to a more general notion of complementary channel, which we use to establish a generalized complementarity theorem between private and correctable subalgebras that applies to both the finite and infinite-dimensional settings. Linear bosonic channels are considered and specific examples of Gaussian quantum channels are given to illustrate the new framework together with the complementarity theorem.
We generalise some well-known graph parameters to operator systems by considering their underlying quantum channels. In particular, we introduce the quantum complexity as the dimension of the smallest co-domain Hilbert space a quantum channel requires to realise a given operator system as its non-commutative confusability graph. We describe quantum complexity as a generalised minimum semidefinite rank and, in the case of a graph operator system, as a quantum intersection number. The quantum complexity and a closely related quantum version of orthogonal rank turn out to be upper bounds for the Shannon zero-error capacity of a quantum channel, and we construct examples for which these bounds beat the best previously known general upper bound for the capacity of quantum channels, given by the quantum Lovász theta number. arXiv:1710.06456v1 [quant-ph]
We continue the study of multidimensional operator multipliers initiated in
[arXiv:math/0701645]. We introduce the notion of the symbol of an operator
multiplier. We characterise completely compact operator multipliers in terms of
their symbol as well as in terms of approximation by finite rank multipliers.
We give sufficient conditions for the sets of compact and completely compact
multipliers to coincide and characterise the cases where an operator multiplier
in the minimal tensor product of two C*-algebras is automatically compact. We
give a description of multilinear modular completely compact completely bounded
maps defined on the direct product of finitely many copies of the C*-algebra of
compact operators in terms of tensor products, generalising results of Saar
The hyperbolic algebra A h , studied recently by Katavolos and Power [5], is the weak star closed operator algebra on L 2 (R) generated by H ∞ (R), as multiplication operators, and by the dilation operators V t , t ≥ 0, given by V t f (x) = e t/2 f (e t x). We show that A h is a reflexive operator algebra and that the four dimensional manifold Lat A h (with the natural topology) is the reflexive hull of a natural two dimensional subspace.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
