General probabilistic theories: An introduction

M Plávala - Physics Reports, 2023 - Elsevier
We introduce the framework of general probabilistic theories (GPTs for short). GPTs are a
class of operational theories that generalize both finite-dimensional classical and quantum …

Non-classical correlations in quantum mechanics and beyond

L Lami - arXiv preprint arXiv:1803.02902, 2018 - arxiv.org
Is entanglement an exclusive feature of quantum systems, or is it common to all non-
classical theories? And if this is the case, how strong is quantum mechanical entanglement …

General resource theories in quantum mechanics and beyond: operational characterization via discrimination tasks

R Takagi, B Regula - Physical Review X, 2019 - APS
We establish an operational characterization of general convex resource theories—
describing the resource content of not only states but also measurements and channels …

Quantum majorization and a complete set of entropic conditions for quantum thermodynamics

G Gour, D Jennings, F Buscemi, R Duan… - Nature …, 2018 - nature.com
What does it mean for one quantum process to be more disordered than another?
Interestingly, this apparently abstract question arises naturally in a wide range of areas such …

A no-go theorem on the nature of the gravitational field beyond quantum theory

TD Galley, F Giacomini, JH Selby - Quantum, 2022 - quantum-journal.org
Recently, table-top experiments involving massive quantum systems have been proposed to
test the interface of quantum theory and gravity. In particular, the crucial point of the debate …

Entanglement of a bipartite channel

G Gour, CM Scandolo - Physical Review A, 2021 - APS
The most general quantum object that can be shared between two distant parties is a
bipartite channel, as it is the basic element to construct all quantum circuits. In general …

[图书][B] Quantum theory: informational foundations and foils

G Chiribella, RW Spekkens - 2016 - Springer
The foundations of Quantum Mechanics are experiencing a golden age. In a timespan of
less than two decades, an astonishing number of new results, ideas, and frameworks have …

Accessible fragments of generalized probabilistic theories, cone equivalence, and applications to witnessing nonclassicality

JH Selby, D Schmid, E Wolfe, AB Sainz, R Kunjwal… - Physical Review A, 2023 - APS
The formalism of generalized probabilistic theories (GPTs) was originally developed as a
way to characterize the landscape of conceivable physical theories. Thus, the GPT …

Reconstructing quantum theory from diagrammatic postulates

JH Selby, CM Scandolo, B Coecke - Quantum, 2021 - quantum-journal.org
A reconstruction of quantum theory refers to both a mathematical and a conceptual
paradigm that allows one to derive the usual formulation of quantum theory from a set of …

Resource theory for work and heat

C Sparaciari, J Oppenheim, T Fritz - Physical Review A, 2017 - APS
Several recent results on thermodynamics have been obtained using the tools of quantum
information theory and resource theories. So far, the resource theories utilized to describe …
