Entropic uncertainty relations and their applications

PJ Coles, M Berta, M Tomamichel, S Wehner - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2017 - APS
Heisenberg's uncertainty principle forms a fundamental element of quantum mechanics.
Uncertainty relations in terms of entropies were initially proposed to deal with conceptual …

Dual unitaries as maximizers of the distance to local product gates

S Brahmachari, RN Rajmohan, SA Rather… - Physical Review A, 2024 - APS
The problem of finding the resource-free, closest local unitary, to any bipartite unitary gate U
is addressed. Previously discussed as a measure of nonlocality, the distance KD (U) to the …

Tighter uncertainty and reverse uncertainty relations

D Mondal, S Bagchi, AK Pati - Physical Review A, 2017 - APS
We prove a few state-dependent uncertainty relations for the product as well as the sum of
variances of two incompatible observables. These uncertainty relations are shown to be …

Multipartite steering inequalities based on entropic uncertainty relations

A Riccardi, C Macchiavello, L Maccone - Physical Review A, 2018 - APS
We investigate quantum steering for multipartite systems by using entropic uncertainty
relations. We introduce entropic steering inequalities whose violation certifies the presence …

Perfect quantum protractors

M Piotrak, M Kopciuch, AD Fard, M Smolis… - Quantum, 2024 - quantum-journal.org
In this paper we introduce and investigate the concept of a $\textit {perfect quantum
protractor} $, a pure quantum state $|\psi\rangle\in\mathcal {H} $ that generates three …

Tight entropic uncertainty relations for systems with dimension three to five

A Riccardi, C Macchiavello, L Maccone - Physical Review A, 2017 - APS
We consider two (natural) families of observables O k for systems with dimension d= 3, 4, 5:
the spin observables S x, S y, and S z, and the observables that have mutually unbiased …

Quantitative wave–particle duality relations from the density matrix properties

MLW Basso, DSS Chrysosthemos… - Quantum Information …, 2020 - Springer
We derive upper bounds for Hilbert–Schmidt's quantum coherence of general states of ad-
level quantum system, a qudit, in terms of its incoherent uncertainty, with the latter quantified …

Role of Dilations in Reversing Physical Processes: Tabletop Reversibility and Generalized Thermal Operations

CC Aw, LH Zaw, M Balanzó-Juandó, V Scarani - PRX Quantum, 2024 - APS
Irreversibility, crucial in both thermodynamics and information theory, is naturally studied by
comparing the evolution—the (forward) channel—with an associated reverse—the reverse …

Mutually Unbiased Bases in Composite Dimensions--A Review

D McNulty, S Weigert - arXiv preprint arXiv:2410.23997, 2024 - arxiv.org
Maximal sets of mutually unbiased bases are useful throughout quantum physics, both in a
foundational context and for applications. To date, it remains unknown if complete sets of …

Mutual unbiasedness in coarse-grained continuous variables

DS Tasca, P Sánchez, SP Walborn, Ł Rudnicki - Physical Review Letters, 2018 - APS
The notion of mutual unbiasedness for coarse-grained measurements of quantum
continuous variable systems is considered. It is shown that while the procedure of “standard” …
