Popis: We introduce a new quantum decoder based on a variant of the pretty good measurement, but defined via an alternative matrix quotient. We use this decoder to show new lower bounds on the error exponent both in the one-shot and asymptotic regimes for the classical-quantum and the entanglement-assisted channel coding problem. Our bounds are expressed in terms of measured (for the one-shot bounds) and sandwiched (for the asymptotic bounds) channel R\'enyi mutual information of order between 1/2 and 1. Our results are not comparable with some previously established bounds for general instances, yet they are tight (for rates close to capacity) when the underlying channel is classical.
Comment: v2: further properties of the new measurement are discussed
