Abstract
The paper of Hsieh, Luo, and Brun (HLB) [Phys. Rev. APLRAAN1050-294710. 1103/PhysRevA.78.042306 78, 042306 (2008)] contains several issues with the capacity theorem presented there, one of which is the suggestion that a sender and receiver can achieve entanglement-assisted classical capacity without any entanglement at all, and another of which is a violation of the Holevo bound. There is also an issue with the converse proof of the capacity theorem. In this comment, I point out these issues and provide revisions of the capacity theorem and the converse proof. © 2011 American Physical Society.
