Abstract: In this talk, we shall introduce the notion of a "quantum channel" and then define a special class of quantum channels called "entanglement breaking channels". For a map in this special class, we shall define what we mean by its entanglement breaking rank. We shall show how this rank parameter for a certain map links to an open problem in linear algebra: Zauner's conjecture. The prerequisites for this talk will be minimal with some background in linear algebra, and will be aimed towards students.
