abstract
The relative entropy description of Holevo-Schumacher-Westmoreland (HSW) classical channel capacity is applied to single qubit channels. A simple formula for the relative entropy of qubit density matrices in the Bloch sphere representation is derived. This formula is combined with the King-Ruskai-Szarek-Werner qubit channel ellipsoid picture to analyze several unital and non-unital qubit channels in detail. An alternate proof that the optimal HSW signalling states for single qubit unital channels are those states with the minimum channel output entropy is presented. The derivation is based on the symmetries of the qubit relative entropy formula and the King-Ruskai-Szarek-Werner qubit channel ellipsoid picture. A proof is given that the average output density matrix of any set of optimal HSW signalling states for a (qubit or non-qubit) quantum channel is unique.
