The aim of the present paper is to give axiomatic characterization of quantum relative entropy utilizing resource conversion scenario. We consider two sets of axioms: non-asymptotic and asymptotic. In the former setting, we prove that the…

Although entanglement is necessary for observing nonlocality in a Bell experiment, there are entangled states which can never be used to demonstrate nonlocal correlations. In a seminal paper [PRL 108, 200401 (2012)] F. Buscemi extended the…

We introduce a new class of nonlocal nonlinear conservation laws in one space dimension that allow for nonlocal interactions over a finite horizon. The proposed model, which we refer to as the nonlocal pair interaction model, inherits at…

The principle of maximum entropy is a broadly applicable technique for computing a distribution with the least amount of information possible constrained to match empirical data, for instance, feature expectations. We seek to generalize…

The relative entropy of entanglement $E_R$ is defined as the distance of a multi-partite quantum state from the set of separable states as measured by the quantum relative entropy. We show that this optimisation is always achieved, i.e. any…

An entanglement measure for a bipartite quantum system is a state functional that vanishes on separable states and that does not increase under separable (local) operations. It is well-known that for pure states, essentially all…
