Abstract :
We consider asymptotic capacities of bipartite unitary gates. We present a gate with exponentially larger entanglement capacity than the total communication capacity. The key tool in our proof, which may be of independent interest, is a communication-efficient protocol for testing whether a bipartite quantum state belongs to a short list of candidate states.
