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.

The reverse sandwiched Renyi divergence for alpha in (0,1) exactly equals the optimal Hoeffding exponent for discriminating a thermal equilibrium state from a probe with unknown dephasing in the energy basis.
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).
