abstract
We prove the converse part of the theorem for quantum Hoeffding bound on the asymptotics of quantum hypothesis testing, essentially based on an argument developed by Nussbaum and Szkola in proving the converse part of the quantum Chernoff bound. Our result complements Hayashi's proof of the direct (achievability) part of the theorem, so that the quantum Hoeffding bound has now been established.

Proves additivity of doubly minimized Petz Renyi mutual information for alpha in [1/2,2] and a novel duality plus additivity for the sandwiched version for alpha in [2/3, infinity] via Sion's minimax theorem.
Explicit formulas are given for regularized Rényi divergences of several kinds between fermionic quasifree states, with all types coinciding in the single-mode case and remaining distinct for multiple modes per site.
For composite quantum hypothesis testing with a mixed IID null hypothesis, the optimal type-II error exponent is the worst-case component when type-I error vanishes, but not for fixed nonzero type-I error.
The direct exponent in binary quantum state discrimination for correlation detection equals the doubly minimized Petz Renyi mutual information for alpha in (1/2,1), while the strong converse exponent equals the doubly minimized sandwiched version for alpha in (1,infty).
