# Problem setup: Suppose the quantum amplitude damping channel acting on a qubit system is defined by \begin{align*} \mathcal A_{\gamma}\begin{pmatrix} \rho_{00} & \rho_{01} \\ \rho_{10} & \rho_{11} \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} \rho_{00}+ \gamma \rho_{11} & \sqrt{1-\gamma}\rho_{01} \\ \sqrt{1-\gamma} \rho_{10} & (1-\gamma)\rho_{11} \end{pmatrix}. \end{align*} The quantum relative entropy is defined by \begin{equation*} D(\rho||\sigma)= \begin{cases} \mathrm{tr}\Big(\rho\big(\log(\rho)-\log(\sigma)\big)\Big) &\text{ if } \text{supp}(\rho)\subseteq \text{supp}(\sigma), \\ \infty &\text{ else}. \end{cases} \end{equation*} # Main problem: Denote \begin{align*} f(\gamma):=\sup_{\rho \neq \sigma}\frac{D(\mathcal{A}_{\gamma}(\rho) \|\mathcal{A}_{\gamma}(\sigma))}{D(\rho \|\sigma)},\quad \gamma \in [0,1], \end{align*} where the supremum is taken over all density operators ρ\rho and σ\sigma.

# Problem setup:
Suppose the quantum amplitude damping channel acting on a qubit system is defined by
\begin{align*}
    \mathcal A_{\gamma}\begin{pmatrix}
        \rho_{00} & \rho_{01} \\
        \rho_{10} & \rho_{11}
    \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix}
        \rho_{00}+ \gamma \rho_{11} & \sqrt{1-\gamma}\rho_{01} \\
        \sqrt{1-\gamma} \rho_{10} & (1-\gamma)\rho_{11}
    \end{pmatrix}.
\end{align*}
The quantum relative entropy is defined by
\begin{equation*}
D(\rho||\sigma)= \begin{cases}
 \mathrm{tr}\Big(\rho\big(\log(\rho)-\log(\sigma)\big)\Big) &\text{ if } \text{supp}(\rho)\subseteq \text{supp}(\sigma), \\
\infty &\text{ else}.
\end{cases}
\end{equation*}


# Main problem:

Denote
\begin{align*}
    f(\gamma):=\sup_{\rho \neq \sigma}\frac{D(\mathcal{A}_{\gamma}(\rho) \|\mathcal{A}_{\gamma}(\sigma))}{D(\rho \|\sigma)},\quad \gamma \in [0,1],
\end{align*}
where the supremum is taken over all density operators ρ and σ. Calculate f((1)/(8))+f((1)/(4))+f((1)/(2)).
