Averaging conjugation by all Heisenberg-Weyl operators completely depolarizes a system:
d21​∑k,m​Wk,m​AWk,m†​=(TrA)dI​.
(1)
Summing over phases Zm kills off-diagonal matrix elements, and averaging shifts Xk makes all diagonal elements equal. Acting on subsystem B of a bipartite operator gives (TrB​A)⊗IB​/d. This identity turns joint convexity of quantum relative entropy into monotonicity under partial trace.
