Abstract
The more than thirty years old issue of the information capacity of quantum communication channels was dramatically clarified during the last period, when a number of direct quantum coding theorems was discovered. To considerable extent this progress is due to an interplay between the quantum communication theory and quantum information ideas related to more recent development in quantum computing. It is remarkable, however, that many probabilistic tools underlying the treatment of quantum case have their roots, and in some cases direct prototypes, in classical Shannon's theory. This paper presents an outline of some basic ideas and results in that direction.Keywords
