An interesting questi<strong>on</strong> is whether an exact algorithm can be obtained with<br />

logarithmic complexity.<br />

The following theorem excludes the possibility to communicate more than<br />

k (classical) bits of informati<strong>on</strong> by transmitting k qubits.<br />

Holevo’s Theorem<br />

The informati<strong>on</strong> quantity recovered from a register of qubits is upperly<br />

bounded by the value of v<strong>on</strong> Neumann’s entropy, which is bounded by<br />

Shann<strong>on</strong>’s entropy. Both entropies coincide whenever the qubits are<br />

pairwise orthog<strong>on</strong>al.<br />

However, in <str<strong>on</strong>g>Quantum</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>Computing</str<strong>on</strong>g> the use of the noti<strong>on</strong> of entangled states<br />

improves the communicati<strong>on</strong> complexities of several procedures.<br />
