Entropic upper bound for Bayes risk in the quantum case

Abstract

The entropic upper bound for Bayes risk in a general quantum case is presented. We obtained generalization of the entropic lower bound for probability of detection. Our result indicates upper bound for Bayes risk in a particular case of loss function – for probability of detection in a pretty general setting of an arbitrary finite von Neumann algebra. It is also shown under which condition the indicated upper bound is achieved.
