Operator extension of strong subadditivity of entropy

Published Nov 30, 2012• 28 citations

Abstract

We prove an operator inequality that extends strong subadditivity of entropy: after taking a trace, the operator inequality becomes the strong subadditivity of entropy.

Structure of states saturating an another version of strong subadditivity

Lin Zhang

Strong subadditivity inequality of quantum entropy, proved by Lieb and Ruskai, is a powerful tool in quantum information theory. The fact that the strong subadditivity inequality saturated only by a so-called Markov states is obtained in the recent literature [P. Hayden et al., Commun. Math. Phys. 246, 359 (2004).]. In this report, we will give a characterization to an another equivalent version of strong subadditivity inequality. The possible applications are discussed.

Remarks on Kim's strong subadditivity matrix inequality: Extensions and equality conditions

Mary Beth Ruskai

We describe recent work of Kim [J. Math. Phys. 53, 122204 (2012)] to show that operator convex functions associated with quasi-entropies can be used to prove a large class of new matrix inequalities in the tri-partite and bi-partite setting by taking a judiciously chosen partial trace over all but one of the spaces. We give some additional examples in both settings. Furthermore, we observe that the equality conditions for all the new inequalities are essentially the same as those for strong subadditivity.

Entropic uncertainty relation and strong subadditvity of quantum channels

Gao Li, Marius Junge, Nicholas D. LaRacuente

We extend the entropic uncertainty principle from quantum measurements to quantum channels. This is obtained via a generalized strong subadditivity (SSA) of quantum entropy. Motivated by Petz's algebraic SSA inequality, we also obtain a generalized strong subadditivity of quantum relative entropy. The English version of this article is available at arXiv:2301.08402.

Strong Subadditivity Inequality and Entropic Uncertainty Relations

Li Gao, Marius Junge, Nicholas D. LaRacuente

We prove a generalization of the strong-subadditivity (SSA) inequality in the context of finite dimensional von Neumann algebras. Our generalized SSA inequality subsumes various entropic uncertainty relations, such as the Maassen-Uffink inequality in the presence of quantum memory. Motivated by the generalization of SSA, we introduce an analog of conditional mutual information and discuss superadditivity and monotonicity under certain operations. Our proof uses complex interpolation and noncommutative mixed $L_p$ spaces.
