New entropic inequalities for qubit and unimodal Gaussian states
Abstract
The Tsallis relative entropy measures the distance between two arbitrary density matrices and . In this work the approximation to this quantity when () is obtained. It is shown that the resulting series is equal to the von Neumann relative entropy when . Analyzing the von Neumann relative entropy for arbitrary and a thermal equilibrium state is possible to define a new inequality relating the energy, the entropy, and the partition function of the system. From this inequality, a parameter that measures the distance between the two states is defined. This distance is calculated for a general qubit system and for an arbitrary unimodal Gaussian state. In the qubit case, the dependence on the purity of the system is studied for and also for . In the Gaussian case, the general partition function given a unimodal quadratic Hamiltonian is calculated and the comparison of the thermal light state as a thermal equilibrium state of the parametric amplifier is presented.
