Estimating Quantum and Private Capacities of Gaussian Channels via Degradable Extensions
Marco Fanizza, Farzad Kianvash, Vittorio Giovannetti · Physical Review Letters · 2021
We present upper bounds on the quantum and private capacity of single-mode, phase-insensitive bosonic Gaussian channels based on degradable extensions. Our findings are state of the art in the following parameter regions: low temperature and high transmissivity for the thermal attenuator, low temperature for additive Gaussian noise, high temperature and intermediate amplification for the thermal amplifier.
