Abstract: It is conjectured that the Holevo capacity of a product channel Omega otimes Phi is achieved when product states are used as input. Amosov, Holevo and Werner have also conjectured that the maximal p-norm of a product channel is achieved with product input states. In this paper we establish both of these conjectures in the case that Omega is arbitrary and Phi is a CQ or QC channel (as defined by Holevo). We also establish the Amosov, Holevo and Werner conjecture when Omega is arbitrary and either Phi is a qubit channel and p=2, or Phi is a unital qubit channel and p is integer. Our proofs involve a new conjecture for the norm of an output state of the half-noisy channel I otimes Phi, when Phi is a qubit channel. We show that this conjecture in some cases also implies additivity of the Holevo capacity.
