Bennett's laws of quantum information are:

  1. 1 qubit {\displaystyle \geqslant } 1 bit (classical),
  2. 1 qubit {\displaystyle \geqslant } 1 ebit (entanglement bit),
  3. 1 ebit + 1 qubit {\displaystyle \geqslant } 2 bits (i.e. superdense coding),
  4. 1 ebit + 2 bits {\displaystyle \geqslant } 1 qubit (i.e. quantum teleportation),

where {\displaystyle \geqslant } indicates "can do the job of".

These principles were formulated around 1993 by Charles H. Bennett.
