• Abstract: The quantum prepare-and-measure scenario has been studied under various physical assumptions on the emitted states. Here, we first discuss how different assumptions are conceptually and formally related. We then identify one that can serve as a relaxation of all others, corresponding to a limitation on the one-shot accessible information of the state ensemble. This motivates us to study the optimal state discrimination probability of a source subject to these various physical assumptions. We derive general and tight bounds for states restricted by their quantum dimension, their vacuum component, an arbitrary uniform overlap, the magnitude of higher-dimensional signals and the experimenter's trust in their device. Our results constitute a first step towards a more unified picture of semi-device-independent quantum information processing.

  The dimension of a quantum state is traditionally seen as the number of superposed distinguishable states in a given basis. We propose an absolute, i.e.basis-independent, notion of dimensionality for ensembles of quantum states.

• Relative-belief inference in quantum information theory [0.0]
  We show that the relative belief procedure chooses Hilbert spaces that are never smaller in dimension than those selected from optimizing a broad class of information criteria. We apply the relative belief procedure to an important application: state reconstruction of imperfect quantum sources.

• Classifying One-Dimensional Quantum States Prepared by a Single Round of Measurements [0.0]
  We characterize the patterns of many-body entanglement that can be deterministically created from measurement. We show this creates matrix product states and identify necessary and sufficient tensor conditions for preparability. We find a trade-off between the richness of the preparable entanglement spectrum and correlation functions, which leads to a no-go theorem for preparing certain quantum states.

• 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.

  Quantum coherence quantifies the amount of superposition in a quantum system. We develop the corresponding resource theory, identifying the free states and operations. We obtain a complementarity relation between the so-defined quantum coherence and the which-path information in an interferometric set-up.

In the case the quantum states are represented by coherent states of light, we identify intermediate scenarios where partial prior information is available.
