Abstract:
We investigate the role of magic resource in the quantum capacity of channels. We consider the quantum channel of the recently proposed discrete beam splitter with the fixed environmental state. We find that if the fixed environmental state is a stabilizer state, then the quantum capacity is zero. Moreover, we find that the quantum capacity is nonzero for some magic states, and the quantum capacity increases linearly with respect to the number of single-qudit magic states in the environment. We also bound the maximal quantum capacity of the discrete beam splitter in terms of the amount of magic resource in the environmental states. These results suggest that magic resource can increase the quantum capacity of channels; it sheds new insight into the role of stabilizer and magic states in quantum communication.

The Maximum Power Transfer Theorem
The load connected draws the current, and the circuit delivers the power to the load. The alternating current flowing through the load is determined using the rectangular form of voltages, currents, network impedance, and load impedance. The average power delivered to the load is obtained from the product of the square of current and load resistance.

The circuit illustrated in Figure 1 below incorporates two op-amps, with the first operating as a voltage follower and the second acting as an inverting amplifier.
