On classical capacities of infinite-dimensional quantum channels

A coding theorem for entanglement-assisted communication via an infinite-dimensional quantum channel with linear constraints is extended to a natural degree of generality. Relations between the entanglement-assisted classical capacity and χ-capacity of constrained channels are obtained, and conditions for their coincidence are given. Sufficient conditions for continuity of the entanglement-assisted classical capacity as a function of a channel are obtained. Some applications of the obtained results to analysis of Gaussian channels are considered. A general (continuous) version of the fundamental relation between coherent information and the measure of privacy of classical information transmission via an infinite-dimensional quantum channel is proved.
