Abstract
The study of quantum channels is the most fundamental theoretical problem in quantum information and quantum communication theory. The link product theory of quantum channels is an important tool for studying quantum networks. In this paper, we establish the Stinespring dilation theorem of the link product of quantum channels in two different ways, discuss the discrimination of quantum channels and show that the distinguishability can be improved by self-linking each quantum channel n times as n grows. We also find that the maximum value of Uhlmann's theorem can be achieved for diagonal channels.
