- Abstract: In this work, we use the theory of quantum states over time to define an
entropy $S(\rho,\mathcal{E})$ associated with quantum processes
$(\rho,\mathcal{E})$, where $\rho$ is a state and $\mathcal{E}$ is a quantum
channel responsible for the dynamical evolution of $\rho$. The entropy
$S(\rho,\mathcal{E})$ is a generalization of the von Neumann entropy in the
sense that $S(\rho,\mathrm{id})=S(\rho)$ (where $\mathrm{id}$ denotes the
identity channel), and is a dynamical analogue of the quantum joint entropy for
bipartite states. Such an entropy is then used to define dynamical formulations
of the quantum conditional entropy and quantum mutual information, and we show
such information measures satisfy many desirable properties, such as a quantum
entropic Bayes' rule. We also use our entropy function to quantify the
information loss/gain associated with the dynamical evolution of quantum
systems, which enables us to formulate a precise notion of information
conservation for quantum processes.

Entanglement entropy is the von Neumann entropy of quantum entanglement of pure states.
The relation between entanglement entropy and entanglement distillation has been known only for the setting, and the meaning of entanglement entropy in the single-copy regime has so far remained open.
Our results imply that entanglement entropy quantifies the amount of entanglement available in a bipartite pure state to be used for quantum information processing, giving results an operational meaning also in entangled single-copy setup.

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.
