• Authors: Robert Salzmann, Nilanjana Datta, Gilad Gour, Xin Wang, Mark M. Wilde
• Abstract summary: We develop a resource theory of symmetric distinguishability, the fundamental objects of which are elementary quantum information sources. We study the resource theory for two different classes of free operations: $(i)$ $rmCPTP_A$, which consists of quantum channels acting only on $A$, and $(ii)$ conditional doubly (CDS) maps acting on $XA$.

• Abstract: We develop a resource theory of symmetric distinguishability, the fundamental objects of which are elementary quantum information sources, i.e., sources that emit one of two possible quantum states with given prior probabilities. Such a source can be represented by a classical-quantum state of a composite system $XA$, corresponding to an ensemble of two quantum states, with $X$ being classical and $A$ being quantum. We study the resource theory for two different classes of free operations: $(i)$ ${\rm{CPTP}}_A$, which consists of quantum channels acting only on $A$, and $(ii)$ conditional doubly stochastic (CDS) maps acting on $XA$. We introduce the notion of symmetric distinguishability of an elementary source and prove that it is a monotone under both these classes of free operations. We study the tasks of distillation and dilution of symmetric distinguishability, both in the one-shot and asymptotic regimes. We prove that in the asymptotic regime, the optimal rate of converting one elementary source to another is equal to the ratio of their quantum Chernoff divergences, under both these classes of free operations. This imparts a new operational interpretation to the quantum Chernoff divergence. We also obtain interesting operational interpretations of the Thompson metric, in the context of the dilution of symmetric distinguishability.

• Generalized Quantum Stein's Lemma and Second Law of Quantum Resource Theories [47.02222405817297]
  A fundamental question in quantum information theory is whether an analogous second law can be formulated to characterize the convertibility of resources for quantum information processing by a single function. In 2008, a promising formulation was proposed, linking resource convertibility to the optimal performance of a variant of the quantum version of hypothesis testing. In 2023, a logical gap was found in the original proof of this lemma, casting doubt on the possibility of such a formulation of the second law.

• Studying Stabilizer de Finetti Theorems and Possible Applications in Quantum Information Processing [0.0]
  In quantum information theory, if a quantum state is invariant under permutations of its subsystems, its marginal can be approximated by a mixture of powers of a state on a single subsystem. Recently, it has been discovered that a similar observation can be made for a larger symmetry group than permutations. This naturally raises the question if similar improvements could be found for applications where this symmetry appears.

  We develop a framework to characterize the separability of a specific type of one-dimensional quasiparticle known as a fermionic anyon. We map this notion of fermionic-anyon separability to the free resources of matchgate circuits. We also identify how entanglement between two qubits encoded in a dual-rail manner, as standard for matchgate circuits, corresponds to the notion of entanglement between fermionic anyons.

• Stochastic approximate state conversion for entanglement and general quantum resource theories [41.94295877935867]
  An important problem in any quantum resource theory is to determine how quantum states can be converted into each other. Very few results have been presented on the intermediate regime between probabilistic and approximate transformations. We show that these bounds imply an upper bound on the rates for various classes of states under probabilistic transformations. We also show that the deterministic version of the single copy bounds can be applied for drawing limitations on the manipulation of quantum channels.

• Quantum Statistical Complexity Measure as a Signalling of Correlation Transitions [55.41644538483948]
  We introduce a quantum version for the statistical complexity measure, in the context of quantum information theory, and use it as a signalling function of quantum order-disorder transitions. We apply our measure to two exactly solvable Hamiltonian models, namely: the $1D$-Quantum Ising Model and the Heisenberg XXZ spin-$1/2$ chain. We also compute this measure for one-qubit and two-qubit reduced states for the considered models, and analyse its behaviour across its quantum phase transitions for finite system sizes as well as in the thermodynamic limit by using Bethe ansatz.
