Capacity estimation and verification of quantum channels with arbitrarily correlated errors

Estimating the quantum capacity allows one to assess the performance of quantum memories, communication channels, repeaters as well as error correction schemes. Here, the authors show how to estimate and verify one-shot quantum capacity in the most general case of arbitrarily correlated errors.
