• Abstract: Complex numbers are widely used in quantum physics and are indispensable components for describing quantum systems and their dynamical behavior. The resource theory of imaginarity has been built recently, enabling a systematic research of complex numbers in quantum information theory. In this work, we develop two theoretical methods for quantifying imaginarity, motivated by recent progress within resource theories of entanglement and coherence. We provide quantifiers of imaginarity by the convex roof construction and quantifiers of the imaginarity by the least imaginarity of the input pure states under real operations. We also apply these tools to study the state conversion problem in resource theory of imaginarity.

• Resource Theory of Imaginarity: New Distributed Scenarios [48.7576911714538]
  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.
