Beam splitters are not-free operations with regard to quantum coherence. As a consequence, they can create coherence from both coherent and incoherent states. We investigate the increase in coherence produced by cascades of beam splitters.…
Any quantum resource theory is based on free states and free operations, i.e., states and operations which can be created and performed at no cost. In the resource theory of coherence free states are diagonal in some fixed basis, and free…
Quantum coherence has received significant attention in recent years, but its study is mostly conducted in single party settings. In this paper, we generalize important results in multipartite entanglement theory to their counterparts in…
The perturbative consistency of coherent states within interacting quantum field theory requires them to be altered beyond the simple non-squeezed form. Building on this point, we perform explicit construction of consistent squeezed…
The manipulation of quantum coherence is one of the principal issues in the resource theory of coherence, with two critical topics being the purification and enhancement of coherence. Here, we present two no-go theorems for the…

It has been asked by different authors whether the two classes of Schatten-$p$-norm-based functionals $C_p(\rho)=\min_{\sigma\in\mathcal{I}}||\rho-\sigma||_p$ and $ \tilde{C}_p(\rho)= \|\rho-\Delta\rho\|_{p}$ with $p\geq 1$ are valid…
We characterize the distillation of quantum coherence in the one-shot setting, that is, the conversion of general quantum states into maximally coherent states under different classes of quantum operations. We show that the maximally…
We discuss a general strategy to construct coherence measures. One can build an important class of coherence measures which cover the relative entropy measure for pure states, the $l_1$-norm measure for pure states and the $\alpha$-entropy…
Let A = {rho_1,...,rho_n} be a given set of quantum states. We consider the problem of finding necessary and sufficient conditions on another set B = {sigma_1,...,sigma_n} that guarantee the existence of a physical transformation taking…
We study conditions for the deterministic transformation $\ket{\psi}\longrightarrow\ket{\phi}$ of a bipartite entangled state by a separable operation. If the separable operation is a local operation with classical communication (LOCC),…
We compute analytically the maximal rates of distillation of quantum coherence under strictly incoherent operations (SIO) and physically incoherent operations (PIO), showing that they coincide for all states, and providing a complete…
Chimera states have attracted significant attention as symmetry-broken states exhibiting the unexpected coexistence of coherence and incoherence. Despite the valuable insights gained from analyzing specific systems, an understanding of the…
A major signature of quantum mechanics beyond classical physics is coherence, the existence of superposition states. The recently developed resource theory of quantum coherence allows the formalisation of incoherent operations -- those…
We consider the problem of quantum state certification, where we are given the description of a mixed state $\sigma \in \mathbb{C}^{d \times d}$, $n$ copies of a mixed state $\rho \in \mathbb{C}^{d \times d}$, and $\varepsilon > 0$, and we…
We study the power of dephasing-covariant operations in the resource theories of coherence and entanglement. These are quantum operations whose actions commute with a projective measurement. In the resource theory of coherence, we find that…
We show how to construct, out of a certain basis invariant under the action of one or more unitary operators, a second biorthogonal set with similar properties. In particular, we discuss conditions for this new set to be also a basis of the…
Coherent state operators (CSO) are defined as operator valued functions on G=SL(n,C), homogeneous with respect to right multiplication by lower triangular matrices. They act on a model space containing all holomorphic finite dimensional…
We characterize the operational capabilities of quantum channels which can neither create nor detect quantum coherence vis-\`a-vis efficiently manipulating coherence as a resource. We study the class of dephasing-covariant operations (DIO),…
Coherence phenomena appear in two different situations. In the context of category theory the term `coherence constraints' refers to a set of diagrams whose commutativity implies the commutativity of a larger class of diagrams. In the…
