Three-sender quantum simultaneous decoding conjecture for multiple access channels

Let C3MAC\mathcal{C}_{\textrm{3MAC}} denote the capacity region of a ccc-q multiple access channel with three senders, whose inputs x1,x2,x3x_1,x_2,x_3 produce the quantum state ρx1,x2,x3B\rho^B_{x_1,x_2,x_3}. For i{1,2,3}i\in\{1,2,3\}, let {Xin(mi)}miMi\{X_i^n(m_i)\}_{m_i\in\mathcal{M}_i} be random codebooks generated according to the product distributions pXinnp^n_{X_i^n}, with message sets Mi={1,,2n(Riδ)}\mathcal{M}_i=\{1,\ldots,2^{n(R_i-\delta)}\} and δ>0\delta>0. Three-sender QMAC simultaneous decoding conjecture. There exists a simultaneous decoding POVM {Λm1,m2,m3}\{\Lambda_{m_1,m_2,m_3}\} whose expected average probability of error is at most ϵ\epsilon for all ϵ,δ>0\epsilon,\delta>0 and sufficiently large nn, for every rate triple (R1,R2,R3)C3MAC(R_1,R_2,R_3)\in\mathcal{C}_{\textrm{3MAC}}. This conjectures a simultaneous decoder for the three-sender quantum multiple access channel, extending the established two-sender coding result; whether such a decoder exists for every rate triple in the full capacity region is the remaining issue.
