Average distance of random pure states from maximally entangled and coherent states

Kaifeng Bu, Uttam Singh, Lin Zhang +1 more

It is well known that random bipartite pure states are typically maximally entangled within an arbitrarily small error. Showing that the marginals of random bipartite pure states are typically extremely close to the maximally mixed state, is a way to prove the above. However, a more direct way to prove the above is to estimate the distance of random bipartite pure states from the set of maximally entangled states. Here, we find the average distance between a random bipartite pure state and the set of maximally entanglement states as quantified by three different quantifiers of the distance and investigate the typical properties of the same. We then consider random pure states of a single quantum system and give an account of the typicality of the average $l_1$ norm of coherence for these states scaled by the maximum value of the $l_1$ norm of coherence. We also calculate the variance of the $l_1$ norm of coherence of random pure states to elaborate more on the typical nature of the scaled average $l_1$ norm of coherence. Moreover, We compute the distance of a random pure state from the set of maximally coherent states and obtain the average distance.

The classical correlation limits the ability of the measurement-induced average coherence

Jun Zhang, Si‐ren Yang, Yang Zhang +1 more

Coherence is the most fundamental quantum feature in quantum mechanics. For a bipartite quantum state, if a measurement is performed on one party, the other party, based on the measurement outcomes, will collapse to a corresponding state with some probability and hence gain the average coherence. It is shown that the average coherence is not less than the coherence of its reduced density matrix. In particular, it is very surprising that the extra average coherence (and the maximal extra average coherence with all the possible measurements taken into account) is upper bounded by the classical correlation of the bipartite state instead of the quantum correlation. We also find the sufficient and necessary condition for the null maximal extra average coherence. Some examples demonstrate the relation and, moreover, show that quantum correlation is neither sufficient nor necessary for the nonzero extra average coherence within a given measurement. In addition, the similar conclusions are drawn for both the basis-dependent and the basis-free coherence measure.
