Reciprocal Quantum Channels

We report the presence of an asymmetry that arises when considering the performances of quantum communication channels whose outputs are connected via a rigid, distance-preserving, yet not completely-positive, transformation. From a classical perspective these transmission lines should exhibit the s...
