Abstract

We show that trace distance measure of coherence is a strong monotone for all qubit and, so called, XX states. An expression for the trace distance coherence for all pure states and a semi definite program for arbitrary states is provided. We also explore the relation between l1l_1-norm and relative entropy based measures of coherence, and give a sharp inequality connecting the two. In addition, it is shown that both lpl_p-norm- and Schatten-pp-norm-based measures violate the (strong) monotonicity for all p(1,)p\in(1,\infty).
