We derive new characterisations of the matrix $\mathrm{\Phi}$-entropy functionals introduced in [Electron.~J.~Probab., 19(20): 1--30, 2014]. Notably, all known equivalent characterisations of the classical $\Phi$-entropies have their matrix…

Some quantum algorithms have "quantum speedups": improved time complexity as compared with the best-known classical algorithms for solving the same tasks. Can we understand what fuels these speedups from an entropic perspective? Information…

Entropic quantifiers of states lie at the cornerstone of the quantum information theory. While a quantum state can be abstracted as a device that only has outputs, the most general quantum device is a quantum channel that also has inputs.…

We show a general phenomenon of the constrained functional value for densities satisfying general convexity conditions, which generalizes the observation in Bobkov and Madiman (2011) that the entropy per coordinate in a log-concave random…

Quantum coherence is an essential ingredient in quantum information processing and plays a central role in emergent fields such as nanoscale thermodynamics and quantum biology. However, our understanding and quantitative characterization of…

The ability of quantum states to be in superposition is one of the key features that sets them apart from the classical world. This `coherence' is rigorously quantified by resource theories, which aim to understand how such properties may…
