We provide an example of violation of the additivity theorem for $H_{min}$ known in classical information theory. Our result is based on a fundamental property of $MACs$ i.e. independence of each sender. The channels used in the example can be constructed explicitly. On the basis of subadditivity of $H_{min}$ we also provide an example of extremal superadditivity (super activation) of the classical capacity region of MACs.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2011-01-05T13:21:19.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "03.67.Hk", "89.70.Kn" ], "keywords": [ "quantum multiple access channels", "minimum output entropy", "classical capacity", "subadditivity", "superactivation" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review A", "year": 2011, "month": "Apr", "volume": 83, "number": 4, "pages": "042304" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011PhRvA..83d2304C" } } }
