Quantum coherence measures based on the Tsallis relative entropies

The concept of coherence is one of cornerstones in physics. The development of quantum information science has lead to renewed interest in properly approaching the coherence at the quantum level. Various measures could be proposed to quantify coherence of a quantum state with respect to the prescribed orthonormal basis. To be a proper measure of coherence, each candidate should enjoy certain properties. It seems that the monotonicity property plays a crucial role here. Indeed, there is known an intuitive measure of coherence that does not share this condition. We study coherence measures induced by quantum divergences of the Tsallis type. Basic properties of the considered coherence quantifiers are derived. Tradeoff relations between coherence and mixedness are examined. The property of monotonicity under incoherent selective measurements has to be reformulated. The proposed formulation can naturally be treated as a parametric extension of its standard form. Finally, two coherence measures quadratic in moduli of matrix elements are compared from the monotonicity viewpoint.The concept of coherence is one of cornerstones in physics.

Coherence measure in terms of the Tsallis relative α entropy

Haiqing Zhao, Chang‐shui Yu

Coherence is the most fundamental quantum feature of the nonclassical systems. The understanding of coherence within the resource theory has been attracting increasing interest among which the quantification of coherence is an essential ingredient. A satisfactory measure should meet certain standard criteria. It seems that the most crucial criterion should be the strong monotonicity, that is, average coherence doesn't increase under the (sub-selective) incoherent operations. Recently, the Tsallis relative α entropy has been tried to quantify the coherence. But it was shown to violate the strong monotonicity, even though it can unambiguously distinguish the coherent and the incoherent states with the monotonicity. Here we establish a family of coherence quantifiers which are closely related to the Tsallis relative α entropy. It proves that this family of quantifiers satisfy all the standard criteria and particularly cover several typical coherence measures.Coherence is the most fundamental quantum feature of the nonclassical systems.

Quantum coherence, discord and correlation measures based on Tsallis relative entropy

Anna Vershynina

Several ways have been proposed in the literature to define a coherence measure based on Tsallis relative entropy. One of them is defined as a distance between a state and a set of incoherent states with Tsallis relative entropy taken as a distance measure. Unfortunately, this measure does not satisfy the required strong monotonicity, but a modification of this coherence has been proposed that does. We introduce three new Tsallis coherence measures coming from a more general definition that also satisfy the strong monotonicity, and compare all five definitions between each other. Using three coherence measures that we discuss, one can also define a discord. Two of these have been used in the literature, and another one is new. We also discuss two correlation measures based on Tsallis relative entropy. We provide explicit expressions for all three discord and two correlation measure on pure states. Lastly, we provide tight upper and lower bounds on two discord and correlations measures on any quantum state, with the condition for equality.Several ways have been proposed in the literature to define a coherence measure based on Tsallis relative entropy.

Coherence as entropy increment for Tsallis and Renyi entropies

Anna Vershynina

Relative entropy of coherence can be written as an entropy difference of the original state and the incoherent state closest to it when measured by relative entropy. The natural question is, if we generalize this situation to Tsallis or Rényi entropies, would it define good coherence measures? In other words, we define a difference between Tsallis entropies of the original state and the incoherent state closest to it when measured by Tsallis relative entropy. Taking Rényi entropy instead of the Tsallis entropy, leads to the well-known distance-based Rényi coherence, which means this expression defined a good coherence measure. Interestingly, we show that Tsallis entropy does not generate even a genuine coherence monotone, unless it is under a very restrictive class of operations. Additionally, we provide continuity estimates for both Tsallis and Rényi coherence expressions. Furthermore, we present two coherence measures based on the closest incoherent state when measures by Tsallis or Rényi relative entropy.Relative entropy of coherence can be written as an entropy difference of the original state and the incoherent state closest to it when measured by relative entropy.

Uncertainty relations for coherence quantifiers based on the Tsallis relative 1/2-entropies

Alexey E. Rastegin

Abstract In quantum information science, systems with incomplete information are typically dealt with. To characterize quantumness from different viewpoints, several kinds of non-classical correlations should be described quantitatively. The concept of coherence within purely quantum framework is currently the subject of active research. A certain attention is paid to coherence quantifiers averaged with respect to a set of quantum ensembles or special measurements. Mutually unbiased bases and symmetric informationally complete measurements are important examples. We present uncertainty relations for quantum-coherence quantifiers based on the Tsallis relative 1/2-entropies. Together with mutually unbiased bases, the paper also deals with a measurement built of the states of an equiangular tight frame. The derived inequalities are exemplified with mutually unbiased bases and symmetric informationally complete measurement in two dimensions.Abstract In quantum information science, systems with incomplete information are typically dealt with.
