This paper is devoted to systematic study of properties of the quantum entropy and of the Holevo capacity considered as a function of a set of quantum states. The properties of restriction of the quantum entropy to arbitrary set of states are discussed. For some types of sets necessary and sufficient conditions of boundedness and of continuity of restriction of the quantum entropy as well as necessary and sufficient conditions of existence of the Gibbs state are obtained. The Holevo capacity of an arbitrary set of states and its general properties as a function of a set are considered. The notion of the optimal average state of an arbitrary set of states with finite Holevo capacity is introduced. The condition of existence of optimal measure for a set of states is obtained. The general results concerning the quantum entropy and the Holevo capacity are illustrated by considering the several examples of sets of states.
