We prove that any such channel, $q$, on a unital matrix $*$-algebra, $\\mathcal{A}$, admits a finite matrix $N-$dilation, $\\alpha _N$, for any natural number N. Namely, $\\alpha _N$ is a $*$-automorphism of a larger bi-partite matrix algebra $\\mathcal{A} \\otimes \\mathcal{B}$ so that partial trace of $M$-fold self-compositions of $\\alpha _N$ yield the $M$-fold self-compositions of the original quantum channel, for any $1\\leq M \\leq N$. This demonstrates that repeated "},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1808.04677","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
