- Abstract: Quantum resource theories provide a new perspective and method for the development and application of science. Imaginary numbers are used to describe and solve many complex problems. Therefore imaginarity resource theory proposed recently has become increasingly important and it is worthy of research. In this paper, we find two imaginarity measures, one of which is induced by $\alpha$--$z$--R\'enyi relative entropy and the other defined for positive definite density matrices is induced by Tsallis relative operator entropy. The relationships between different imaginarity measures and their properties are also discussed.

We show that the hypothesis testing relative entropy is equivalent to a variant of the smooth max-relative entropy based on the information spectrum divergence.
We also introduce a modified proof technique based on matrix geometric means and a tightened gentle measurement lemma.

We propose well-defined measures of imaginarity using various distance metrics.
We focus on quantitatively evaluating imaginarity through measures such as Tsallis relative $alpha$-entropy, Sandwiched R'enyi relative entropy, and Tsallis relative operator entropy.
Our findings reveal that the Tsallis relative $alpha$-entropy of imaginarity exhibits higher decay rate under quantum channels compared to other measures.

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.

imaginarity studies the operational value of imaginary parts in quantum states, operations, and measurements.
This arises naturally in bipartite systems where both parties work together to generate the maximum possible imaginarity on one of the subsystems.
We present a scenario that demonstrates the operational advantage of imaginarity: the discrimination of quantum channels without the aid of an ancillary system.

We investigate imaginarity quantification, focusing on the geometric imaginarity and the robustness of imaginarity, and apply these tools to the state conversion problem in imaginarity theory.
Our study reveals the significance of complex numbers in quantum physics, and proves that imaginarity is a resource in optical experiments.
