We study nonclassical correlations beyond entanglement in a family of two-mode non-Gaussian states which represent the continuous-variable counterpart of two-qubit Werner states. We evaluate quantum discord and other quantumness measures…

We consider a quantity that is the differential relative entropy between a generic Wigner function and a Gaussian one. We prove that said quantity is minimized with respect to its Gaussian argument, if both Wigner functions in the argument…

Non-Gaussian bosonic states are ubiquitous in interacting light--matter systems, many-body platforms, and relativistic quantum field settings, but their quantitative characterization is hindered by the infinite-dimensional Hilbert space and…

At the onset of an interaction between two initially independent systems, each system tends to experience an increase in its n-Renyi entropies, such as its von Neumann entropy (n = 1) and its mixedness (n = 2). We here ask which properties…

Entropy is a fundamental concept in equilibrium statistical mechanics, yet its origin in the non-equilibrium dynamics of isolated quantum systems is not fully understood. A strong consensus is emerging around the idea that the stationary…

We show how entanglement entropies allow for the estimation of quasi-long-range order in one dimensional systems whose low-energy physics is well captured by the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid universality class. First, we check our procedure in…

Generic quantum states in the Hilbert space of a many body system are nearly maximally entangled whereas low energy physical states are not; the so-called area laws for quantum entanglement are widespread. In this paper we introduce the…

We derive the quantum Fisher information for entropy estimation in a Gibbs state and show that it equals the inverse of the heat capacity, which is dual to the temperature Fisher information given by the heat capacity divided by the square…

Whereas Shannon entropy is related to the growth rate of multinomial coefficients, we show that the quadratic entropy (Tsallis 2-entropy) is connected to their $q$-deformation; when $q$ is a prime power, these $q$-multinomial coefficients…

It is well known that loss of information about a system, for some observer, leads to an increase in entropy as perceived by this observer. We use this to propose an alternative approach to decoherence in quantum field theory in which the…
