Quantum reverse hypercontractivity (1504.06143v2)

Abstract: We develop reverse versions of hypercontractive inequalities for quantum channels. By generalizing classical techniques, we prove a reverse hypercontractive inequality for tensor products of qubit depolarizing channels. We apply this to obtain a rapid mixing result for depolarizing noise applied to large subspaces, and to prove bounds on a quantum generalization of non-interactive correlation distillation.
