Abstract

A conjecture arising naturally in the investigation of additivity of classical information capacity of quantum channels states that the maximal purity of outputs from a quantum channel, as measured by the p-norm, should be multiplicative with respect to the tensor product of channels. We disprove this conjecture for p.79. The same example (with p= also disproves a conjecture for the multiplicativity of the injective norm of Hilbert space tensor products.
