The present paper is devoted to the investigation of the entropy reduction and entanglement-assisted classical capacity (information gain) of continuous variable quantum measurements. These quantities are computed explicitly for multimode Gaussian measurement channels. For this we establish a fundamental property of the entropy reduction of a measurement: under a restriction on the second moments of the input state it is maximized by a Gaussian state (providing an analytical expression for the…

The "Gaussian maximizer" property is established for the entropy reduction of these measurements which provides explicit formulas for computations including their entanglement-assisted capacity.

For a wide class of Gaussian states that includes all two-mode states, this work proves a recently proposed conjecture on the equality between $E_{F,2}^{\mathrm{\scriptscriptstyle G}}$ and the Gaussian intrinsic entanglement, thus endowing both measures with a more solid operational meaning.

It is argued that the classical capacity of an arbitrary Gaussian observable is attained on a Gaussian ensemble of coherent states and proved that this generalizes results previously known for heterodyne measurement in one mode.

This book gives an accessible, albeit mathematically rigorous and self-contained introduction to quantum information theory, starting from primary structures and leading to fundamental results and to exiting open problems.
On information gain by quantum measurements of continuous observables
A necessary and sufficient condition for measuring processes to have a non‐negative amount of information is obtained and this resolves Groenewold’s conjecture completely including the case of measurements of continuous observables.

This work gives a proof that bosonic Gaussian states and channels possess a particular closure property, namely, that the Petz recovery map associated to a bosonicGaussian state σ and a bosony Gaussian channel N is itself a bosonicsGaussian channel.

In this paper the mathematical formalization is given of the idea that an instrument is a channel which accepts a quantum state as input and produces a probability and an a posteriori state as output.
Entropy reduction of quantum measurements
By using this approach one can show that the entropy reduction of an efficient quantum measurement is a nonnegative lower semicontinuous concave function on the set of all a priori states having continuous restrictions to subsets on which the von Neumann entropy is continuous.
