• Abstract: We study the relative entropy, in the sense of Araki, for the representation of a self-dual CAR algebra $\mathfrak{A}_{SDC}(\mathcal{H},\Gamma)$. We notice, for a specific choice of $f \in \mathcal{H}$, that the associated element in $\mathfrak{A}_{SDC}(\mathcal{H},\Gamma)$ is unitary. As a consequence, we explicitly compute the relative entropy between a quasifree state over $\mathfrak{A}_{SDC}(\mathcal{H},\Gamma)$ and an excitation of it with respect to the abovely mentioned unitary element. The generality of the approach, allows us to consider $\mathcal{H}$ as the Hilbert space of solutions of the classical Dirac equation over globally hyperbolic spacetimes, making our result, a computation of relative entropy for a Fermionic Quantum Field Theory. Our result extends those of Longo and Casini et al. for the relative entropy between a quasifree state and a coherent excitation for a free Scalar Quantum Field Theory, to the case of fermions. As a first application, we computed such a relative entropy for a Majorana field on an ultrastatic spacetime.

  We present a quantum generalization of these tools through a generic bottleneck lemma. This lemma focuses on quantum measures of distance, analogous to the classical Hamming distance but rooted in uniquely quantum principles. Even with sublinear barriers, we use Feynman-Kac techniques to lift classical to quantum ones establishing tight lower bound $T_mathrmmix = 2Omega(nalpha)$.

  We show that for a centered $m$-mode quantum state with finite third-order moments, the trace distance between $rhoboxplus n$ and $rho_G$ decays at the optimal rate of $mathcalO(n-1/2)$. For states with finite fourth-order moments, we prove that the relative entropy between $rhoboxplus n$ and $rho_G$ decays at the optimal rate of $mathcalO(n-1)$.

  We address the challenge of exploration in reinforcement learning (RL) when the agent operates in an unknown environment with sparse or no rewards.

For the trajectory entropy, we propose a simple algorithm that has a sample of complexity of order $widetildemathcalO(mathrmpoly(S,

  symmetry-resolved R'enyi entanglement entropy is known to have rich theoretical connections to conformal field theory. We consider a class of critical quantum chains with a microscopic U(1) symmetry. For the density matrix, $rho_A$, of subsystems of $L$ neighbouring sites we calculate the leading terms in the large $L$ expansion of the symmetry-resolved R'enyi entanglement entropies.

We work with the quantum purified query access model, which can handle both classical probability distributions and mixed quantum states, and is the most general input model considered in the literature.

• Modular Nuclearity and Entanglement Entropy [0.0]
  In this work we show that the Longo's canonical entanglement entropy is finite in any local QFT verifying a modular $p$-nuclearity condition. As application, in $1+1$-dimensional integrable models with factorizing S-matrices we study the behavior of the canonical entanglement entropy as the distance between two causally disjoint wedges diverges.
