  • Abstract
    In Shannon information theory the capacity of a memoryless communication channel cannot be increased by the use of feedback. The use of classical feedback is shown to provide no increase in the classical capacity of a memoryless quantum channel when feedback is used across nonentangled input states, or when the channel is an entanglement-breaking channel
