Equivalence of Privacy and Stability with Generalization Guarantees in Quantum Learning

We present a unified information-theoretic framework elucidating the interplay between stability, privacy, and the generalization performance of quantum learning algorithms. We establish a bound on the expected generalization error in terms of quantum mutual information and derive a probabilistic upper bound that generalizes the classical result by Esposito et al. (2021). Complementing these findings, we provide a lower bound on the expected true loss relative to the expected empirical loss. Additionally, we demonstrate that \(varepsilon, δ\)-quantum differentially private learning algorithms are stable, thereby ensuring strong generalization guarantees. Finally, we extend our analysis to dishonest learning algorithms, introducing Information-Theoretic Admissibility (ITA) to characterize the fundamental limits of privacy when the learning algorithm is oblivious to specific dataset instances.
