Andreas Winter Group
Quantum information is about not just one, but many kinds of
information one might want to store, process or simply send from A to
B. Hence the zoo of information units, all different yet related to
each other: qubits, ebits, pbits, cbits, ...
The capacity of a quantum
communication channel to transmit each kind of information is an
intuitive concept, but its value is hard to compute, despite the fact
that a general theory is beginning to emerge. One of the most profound
obstacles is the almost universally encountered non-additivity: in the
most extreme, two channels, each of which may have very little (or
even zero) transmission capability, when combined may have large
capacity.
How widespread is this phenomenon? What can we learn from it? Can we harness it? The group works also on statistical mechanics, quantum hypothesis testing, entropic inequalities, non-locality and combinatorics.
