+# Math 401, Fall 2025: Thesis notes, R3, Page's lemma
+
+> Progress: 0/4=0% (denominator and enumerator may change)
+
+The page's lemma is a fundamental result in quantum information theory that provides a lower bound on the probability of error in a quantum channel.
+
+## Statement
+
+Choosing a random pure quantum state $\rho$ from the bi-partite pure state space $\mathcal{H}_A\otimes\mathcal{H}_B$ with the uniform distribution, the expected entropy of the reduced state $\rho_A$ is:
+
+$$
+\mathbb{E}[H(\rho_A)]\geq \ln d_A -\frac{1}{2\ln 2} \frac{d_A}{d_B}
+$$
+
+## Page's conjecture
+
+A quantum system $AB$ with the Hilbert space dimension $mn$ in a pure state $\rho_{AB}$ has entropy $0$ but the entropy of the reduced state $\rho_A$, assume $m\leq n$, then entropy of the two subsystem $A$ and $B$ is greater than $0$.
+
+unless $A$ and $B$ are separable.
+
+In the original paper, the entropy of the average state taken under the unitary invariant Haar measure is:
+
+$$
+S_{m,n}=\sum_{k=n+1}^{mn}\frac{1}{k}-\frac{m-1}{2n}\simeq \ln m-\frac{m}{2n}
+$$
