The author studies two distinct quantum dynamical entropies. One is the ALF dynamical entropy \(h^{\text{ALF}}\) which was proposed by Alicki, Lindblad and Fannes. The other is the CNT entropy \(h^{\text{CNT}}\) which was proposed by Connes, Narnhofer, Thirring and Størmer. The former couples the quantum system to a quantum spin chain, while the latter couples the quantum system to a classical system. Suggested by illustrations of some examples presented in Section 2, the author proposes a conjecture that the CNT entropy should be smaller than the ALF dynamical entropy, i.e., \(h^{\text{ALF}}\geq h^{\text{CNT}}\). Some technical difficulties prevent him from proving the full text. So establishment of the above inequality remains an open problem. Lastly as an application of entropies, the author shows that the speed of information transmission \(J\) is bounded above by the entropy \(h^{\text{ALF}}\), by using the Holevo-Levitin inequality. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0903.00097].
