Characterizing multilevel coherence via the fidelity

Mengjia Zhang, Yan Hong, Xianfei Qi

Abstract Quantum coherence originates from the principle of quantum superposition, and multilevel quantum coherence contributes to a more comprehensive understanding of the principle of quantum superposition. In this paper, we investigate multilevel coherence through fidelity. We define a quantity F a ( ρ , σ ) through fidelity and prove that this quantity satisfies several important properties. Based on this quantity F a ( ρ , σ ) , we define an indicator M a k ( ρ ) to characterize multilevel coherence, and prove that this indicator satisfies non-negativity, convexity, monotonicity (non-increasing under ( k − 1 ) -coherence-preserving operation), and subadditivity.Abstract Quantum coherence originates from the principle of quantum superposition, and multilevel quantum coherence contributes to a more comprehensive understanding of the principle of quantum superposition.

Transformation protocols of pure-coherent states under incoherent operation

Ping Li, Yongming Li

Abstract It is well known that the majorization condition is the necessary and sufficient for the deterministic transformations of pure-coherent states under incoherent operation (IO). In this paper, we present the protocol 1 (product-form) which provides a method for the pure-coherent transformation under IO and overcomes the restriction of the number of Kraus operators of Protocol I (Torun and Yildiz 2018 Phys. Rev. A 97 052331). Then, we show that the corresponding uncorrelated-catalytic protocol (discarding the catalytic state) is not incoherent-preserving. We construct the protocol 2 such that the uncorrelated-catalytic transformation with four-dimensional catalyst state can be implemented probabilistically under dephasing-covariant IO. Especially, the protocol 2 provides the target state from the catalyst-assisted transformation and its equivalent states with respect to Pauli operators <?CDATA $X,Z$ ?> X , Z .Abstract It is well known that the majorization condition is the necessary and sufficient for the deterministic transformations of pure-coherent states under incoherent operation (IO).
