Quantum Capacities for Entanglement Networks
(1602.00401)Abstract
We discuss quantum capacities for two types of entanglement networks: $\mathcal{Q}$ for the quantum repeater network with free classical communication, and $\mathcal{R}$ for the tensor network as the rank of the linear operation represented by the tensor network. We find that $\mathcal{Q}$ always equals $\mathcal{R}$ in the regularized case for the samenetwork graph. However, the relationships between the corresponding one-shot capacities $\mathcal{Q}1$ and $\mathcal{R}1$ are more complicated, and the min-cut upper bound is in general not achievable. We show that the tensor network can be viewed as a stochastic protocol with the quantum repeater network, such that $\mathcal{R}1$ is a natural upper bound of $\mathcal{Q}1$. We analyze the possible gap between $\mathcal{R}1$ and $\mathcal{Q}1$ for certain networks, and compare them with the one-shot classical capacity of the corresponding classical network.
