Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 090501 (2005) [4 pages]Inverting Quantum Decoherence by Classical Feedback from the Environment
Francesco Buscemi, Giulio Chiribella, and Giacomo Mauro D’Ariano Received 27 April 2005; published 23 August 2005 We show that for qubits and qutrits it is always possible to perfectly recover quantum coherence by performing a measurement only on the environment, whereas for dimension d>3 there are situations where recovery is impossible, even with complete access to the environment. For qubits, the minimal amount of classical information to be extracted from the environment equals the entropy exchange. ©2005 The American Physical Society
