• Abstract: [Note: After the first version of this manuscript was uploaded, the authors of [Berta, Brand\~ao, Gour, Lami, Plenio, Regula, and Tomamichel, Quantum 7, 1103 (2023)] pointed out an issue about a part of the claims in the previous version of [Bluhm, Capel, Gondolf, P\'erez-Hern\'andez, IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory 69, 5869 (2023)] used in our analysis. Due to this issue, the analysis in the previous version of this manuscript can no longer be considered complete proof of the generalized quantum Stein's lemma. This version is a temporal update to add this note. We are planning to update the manuscript further to explain the issue and what conditions we will additionally need to complete the proof of the generalized quantum Stein's lemma.]

• 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.

  The original Comment consists of three addenda to our work. The first addendum claims that our work is ill-motivated. The second addendum points to some missing references. The third addendum suggests what constraints could lead to an extension of standard quantum theory.

  We point out that the author's main discovery (viz., that the QHQT does not extend the standard quantum theory) is not new. A few other, mathematically consistent GPT-like theories are already available in the literature.

• On a gap in the proof of the generalised quantum Stein's lemma and its consequences for the reversibility of quantum resources [51.243733928201024]
  We show that the proof of the generalised quantum Stein's lemma is not correct due to a gap in the argument leading to Lemma III.9. This puts into question a number of established results in the literature, in particular the reversibility of quantum entanglement.

• Give quantum mechanics a chance: use relativistic quantum mechanics to analyze measurement! [0.0]
  We show that with the more modern quantum theory, quantum measurement could have been analyzed along more conventional lines in a one-world cosmology. Bell criticized the Everett-DeWitt theory quite sharply in 1987 but this seems not to have affected the acceptance of the old quantum mechanics as the framework for analysis of measurement.

  It is argued that the Schr"odinger equation does not yield a correct description of the quantum-mechanical time evolution of states of isolated (open) systems featuring events. A precise general law for the time evolution of states replacing the Schr"odinger equation is formulated within the so-called ETH-Approach to Quantum Mechanics.

A personal analysis of the related Wigner's friend thought experiment and and a recent paradox by Frauchiger and Renner is presented.

  Wang and Busemeyer invented a quantum model and approach as well as non-parametric equality (so-called QQ-equality) This note is to test the possibility to expand the Wang-Busemeyer model by considering questions which are mathematically represented by positive operator valued measures. But, we also showed that, in principle, it is possible to reduce expanded model to the original Wang-Busemeyer model by expanding the context of the questions.
