• Abstract: Quantum steering is an asymmetric correlation which occupies a place between entanglement and Bell nonlocality. In the paradigmatic scenario involving the protagonists Alice and Bob, the entangled state shared between them, is said to be steerable from Alice to Bob, if the steering assemblage on Bob's side do not admit a local hidden state (LHS) description. Quantum conditional entropies, on the other hand provide for another characterization of quantum correlations. Contrary to our common intuition conditional entropies for some entangled states can be negative, marking a significant departure from the classical realm. Quantum steering and quantum nonlocality in general, share an intricate relation with quantum conditional entropies. In the present contribution, we investigate this relationship. For a significant class, namely the two-qubit Weyl states we show that negativity of conditional R\'enyi 2-entropy and conditional Tsallis 2-entropy is a necessary and sufficient condition for the violation of a suitably chosen three settings steering inequality. With respect to the same inequality, we find an upper bound for the conditional R\'enyi 2-entropy, such that the general two-qubit state is steerable. Moving from a particular steering inequality to local hidden state descriptions, we show that some two-qubit Weyl states which admit a LHS model possess non-negative conditional R\'enyi 2-entropy. However, the same does not hold true for some non-Weyl states. Our study further investigates the relation between non-negativity of conditional entropy and LHS models in two-qudits for the isotropic and Werner states. There we find that whenever these states admit a LHS model, they possess a non-negative conditional R\'enyi 2-entropy. We then observe that the same holds true for a noisy variant of the two-qudit Werner state.

  The fully entangled fraction (FEF) measures the proximity of a quantum state to maximally entangled states. Quantum conditional entropy (QCE) is a measure of correlation in quantum systems. FEF is intricately linked with $k$- copy nonlocality and $k$- copy steerability.

  We present a generalized EPR steering paradox, which predicts a contradictory equality $2_Q=left( 1+deltaright)_C$. We test the paradox through a two-setting steering protocol, and find that the state is steerable if some specific measurement requirements are satisfied. Our construction also enlightens the building of EPR steering inequality, which may contribute to some schemes for typical quantum teleportation and quantum key distributions.

• 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.

  We define the Wigner entropy of a quantum state as the differential Shannon entropy of the Wigner function of the state. We conjecture that it is lower bounded by $lnpi +1$ within the convex set of Wigner-positive states. The Wigner entropy is anticipated to be a significant physical quantity, for example, in quantum optics.

  Entanglement and steering are used to describe quantum inseparabilities. A natural question arises concerning how much territory steerability occupies entanglement for a general two-qubit entangled state. We investigate the constraint relation between steerability and concurrence by using two kinds of evolutionary states and randomly generated two-qubit states.
