  Polar coding is a method for communication over noisy classical channels
which is provably capacity-achieving and has an efficient encoding and
decoding. Recently, this method has been generalized to the realm of quantum
information processing, for tasks such as classical communication, private
classical communication, and quantum communication. In the present work, we
apply the polar coding method to network quantum information theory, by making
use of recent advances for related classical tasks. In particular, we consider
problems such as the compound multiple access channel and the quantum
interference channel. The main result of our work is that it is possible to
achieve the best known inner bounds on the achievable rate regions for these
tasks, without requiring a so-called quantum simultaneous decoder. Thus, our
work paves the way for developing network quantum information theory further
without requiring a quantum simultaneous decoder.
