Majorization relations in quantum information theory

Michael G. Jabbour

The theory of majorization is a powerful mathematical tool which naturally arises in the quantum theory as a consequence of its fundamental connection with unitarity. In this work, we look for majorization relations based on entropic inequalities. We begin by introducing the theory of majorization. We then give some notions of quantum mechanics, like the density matrix and some algebra, before presenting the concept of entropy which is closely related to the theory of majorization. We define in the process the Shannon, von Neumann and Renyi entropies, along with some of their properties and applications. We then define quantum entanglement and give some criteria for separability, which turn out to be applications of the concepts of majorization and entropy in the quantum theory. We present some new majorization relations similar to already existing entropic inequalities, and exhibit their advantages and limitations. The rest of the report is dedicated to the study of the field of Gaussian quantum information. We present the theory, before introducing other majorization relations, which turn out to be useful because they allow one to know if it is possible to transform one quantum state into another when there exists majorization relations between them.

Application of quantum Pinsker inequality to quantum communications

Osamu Hirota

Back in the 1960s, based on Wiener's thought, Shikao Ikehara (first student of N.Wiener) encouraged the progress of Hisaharu Umegaki's research from a pure mathematical aspect in order to further develop the research on mathematical methods of quantum information at Tokyo Institute of Technology. Then, in the 1970s, based on the results accomplished by Umegaki Group, Ikehara instructed the author to develop and spread quantum information science as the global information science. While Umegaki Group's results have been evaluated as major achievements in pure mathematics, their contributions to current quantum information science have not been fully discussed. This paper gvies a survey of my talk in the memorial seminar on Ikehara, in which Ikehara and Umegaki Group's contributions to design theory of quantum communication have been introduced with specific examples such as quantum relative entropy and quantum Pinsker inequality.

Entropy and the quantum II : Arizona School of Analysis with Applications, March 15–19, 2010, University of Arizona

Robert Sims, Daniel Ueltschi

These lecture notes provide a pedagogical introduction to quantum mechanics and to some of the mathematics that has been motivated by this field. They are a product of the school Entropy and the Quantum, which took place in Tucson, Arizona, in 2009. They have been written primarily for young mathematicians, but they will also prove useful to more experienced analysts and mathematical physicists. In the first contribution, William Faris introduces the mathematics of quantum mechanics. Robert Seiringer and Eric Carlen review certain recent developments in stability of matter and analytic inequalities, respectively. Bruno Nachtergaele and Robert Sims review locality results for quantum systems, and Christopher King deals with additivity conjectures and quantum information theory. The final article, by Christian Hainzl, describes applications of analysis to the Shandrasekhar limit of stellar masses.|These lecture notes provide a pedagogical introduction to quantum mechanics and to some of the mathematics that has been motivated by this field.
