• Authors: Kun Fang, Zi-Wen Liu
• Abstract summary: We develop a novel and powerful method for analyzing the limitations on quantum resource purification. We employ the new method to derive universal bounds on the error and cost of transforming generic noisy channels. We discuss the connections and applications of our general results to distillation, quantum error correction, quantum Shannon theory, and quantum circuit synthesis.

• Abstract: It has been recently shown that there exist universal fundamental limits to the accuracy and efficiency of the transformation from noisy resource states to pure ones (e.g.,~distillation) in any well-behaved quantum resource theory [Fang/Liu, Phys. Rev. Lett. 125, 060405 (2020)]. Here, we develop a novel and powerful method for analyzing the limitations on quantum resource purification, which not only leads to improved bounds that rule out exact purification for a broader range of noisy states and are tight in certain cases, but also enable us to establish a robust no-purification theory for quantum channel (dynamical) resources. More specifically, we employ the new method to derive universal bounds on the error and cost of transforming generic noisy channels (where multiple instances can be used adaptively, in contrast to the state theory) to some unitary resource channel under any free channel-to-channel map. We address several cases of practical interest in more concrete terms, and discuss the connections and applications of our general results to distillation, quantum error correction, quantum Shannon theory, and quantum circuit synthesis.

• Tight constraints on probabilistic convertibility of quantum states [0.0]
  Two general approaches to characterising the manipulation of quantum states by means of probabilistic protocols constrained by the limitations of some quantum resource theory. First, we give a general necessary condition for the existence of a physical transformation between quantum states, obtained using a recently introduced resource monotone based on the Hilbert projective metric. We show it to tightly characterise single-shot probabilistic distillation in broad types of resource theories, allowing an exact analysis of the trade-offs between the probabilities and errors in distilling maximally resourceful states.

  We introduce the resource theory of unextendibility, which is associated with the inability of extending quantum entanglement in a given quantum state to multiple parties. We derive non-asymptotic, upper bounds on the rate at which quantum communication or entanglement preservation is possible by utilizing an arbitrary quantum channel a finite number of times. We show that the bounds obtained are significantly tighter than previously known bounds for quantum communication over both the depolarizing and erasure channels.

We obtain state-of-the-art lower bounds for the overhead cost of magic state distillation, as well as to quantum communication.
