We study the Chernoff-Stein exponent of the following binary hypothesis testing problem: Associated with each hypothesis is a set of channels. A transmitter, without knowledge of the hypothesis, chooses the vector of inputs to the channel.…
We formulate an entanglement criterion using Peres-Horodecki positive partial transpose operations combined with the Schr\"odinger-Robertson uncertainty relation. We show that any pure entangled bipartite and tripartite state can be…
The difference in the properties of the spin correlation tensor for factorizable and nonfactorizable two-particle states is analyzed. The inequalities for linear combinations of the components of this tensor are obtained for the case of…
The empirical proof of Bell inequality violations was a landmark moment for research into quantum foundations. It commits us to a universe without strict relativistic locality or requires that we escape through a potential loophole like…
Quantum state exclusion is an operational task with application to ontological interpretations of quantum states. In such a task, one is given a system whose state is randomly selected from a finite set, and the goal is to identify a state…
Incompatible observables can be approximated by compatible observables in joint measurement or measured sequentially, with constrained accuracy as implied by Heisenberg's original formulation of the uncertainty principle. Recently, Busch,…
We study semiclassical approximations to the time evolution of coherent states for general spin-orbit coupling problems in two different semiclassical scenarios: The limit \hbar to zero is first taken with fixed spin quantum number s and…
By combining the Minkowski inequality and the quantum Chernoff bound, we derive easy-to-compute upper bounds for the error probability affecting the optimal discrimination of Gaussian states. In particular, these bounds are useful when the…
The experimental test of Bell's inequality is mainly focused on Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) form, which provides a quantitative bound, while little attention has been pained on the violation of Wigner inequality (WI). Based on the…
An active hypothesis testing problem is formulated. In this problem, the agent can perform a fixed number of experiments and then decide on one of the hypotheses. The agent is also allowed to declare its experiments inconclusive if needed.…
We study the binary hypothesis testing problem where an adversary may potentially corrupt a fraction of the samples. The detector is, however, permitted to abstain from making a decision if (and only if) the adversary is present. We…
We examine a new class of channel coding strategies, and hypothesis tests referred to as almost-fixed-length strategies that have little flexibility in the stopping time over fixed-length strategies. The stopping time of these strategies is…
Quantum hypothesis testing (QHT) provides an effective method to discriminate between two quantum states using a two-outcome positive operator-valued measure (POVM). Two types of decision errors in a QHT can occur. In this paper we focus on…
There are fundamental limits to the accuracy with which one can determine the state of a quantum system. I give an overview of the main approaches to quantum state discrimination. Several strategies exist. In quantum hypothesis testing, a…
It is generally believed that Bell's inequality holds for the case of entangled states, including two correlated particles or special states of a single particle. Here, we derive a single-particle Bell's inequality for two correlated spin…
Correlated observations are ubiquitous phenomena in a plethora of scientific avenues. Tackling this dependence among test statistics has been one of the pertinent problems in simultaneous inference. However, very little literature exists…
In terms of quantum probability statistics the Bell inequality (BI) and its violation are extended to spin-$s$ entangled Schr\"{o}dinger cat-state (called the Bell cat-state) with both parallel and antiparallel spin-polarizations. The BI is…
This paper develops an optimal Chernoff type bound for the probabilities of large deviations of sums $\sum_{k=1}^n f (X_k)$ where $f$ is a real-valued function and $(X_k)_{k \in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 0}}$ is a finite state Markov chain with an…
We propose a number of concepts and properties related to `weighted' statistical inference where the observed data are classified in accordance with a `value' of a sample string. The motivation comes from the concepts of weighted…
The task of binary quantum hypothesis testing is to determine the state of a quantum system via measurements on it, given the side information that it is in one of two possible states, say $\rho$ and $\sigma$. This task is generally studied…
