  We study the capacity of d-dimensional quantum channels with memory modeled
by correlated noise. We show that, in agreement with previous results on Pauli
qubit channels, there are situations where maximally entangled input states
achieve higher values of mutual information than product states. Moreover, a
strong dependence of this effect on the nature of the noise correlations as
well as on the parity of the space dimension is found. We conjecture that when
entanglement gives an advantage in terms of mutual information, maximally
entangled states saturate the channel capacity.
