Quantum Information Theory  

In General > s.a. information; entanglement; entropy; horizons; quantum mechanics.
* Idea: Quantum information theory includes that of quantum measurement; In fact, according to a developing viewpoint, quantum mechanics really is a theory of information.

* Channel capacity: The capacity of the bosonic channel with thermal noise and linear loss hinges on the bosonic minimum output entropy conjecture, which states that the vacuum input gives the minimum output entropy for a channel with thermal noise, and was roved in 2009; It implies that the bosonic channel attains its capacity for coherent state inputs.
