The notion of Bregman divergence and sufficiency will be defined on general convex state spaces. It is demonstrated that only spectral sets can have a Bregman divergence that satisfies a sufficiency condition. Positive elements with trace 1…
We characterize the functions for which the corresponding Bregman divergence is jointly convex on matrices. As an application of this characterization, we derive a sharp inequality for the quantum Tsallis entropy of a tripartite state,…
We revisit the mathematical foundations of proper scoring rules (PSRs) and Bregman divergences and present their characteristic properties in a unified theoretical framework. In many situations it is preferable not to generate a PSR…
For convex optimization problems Bregman divergences appear as regret functions. Such regret functions can be defined on any convex set but if a sufficiency condition is added the regret function must be proportional to information…
The entanglement entropy of a pure quantum state of a bipartite system $A \cup B$ is defined as the von Neumann entropy of the reduced density matrix obtained by tracing over one of the two parts. Critical ground states of local…
In classical physics, entropy quantifies the randomness of large systems, where the complete specification of the state, though possible in theory, is not possible in practice. In quantum physics, despite its inherently probabilistic…
We investigate bipartite entanglement in spin-1/2 systems on a generic lattice. For states that are an equal superposition of elements of a group $G$ of spin flips acting on the fully polarized state $\ket{0}^{\otimes n}$, we find that the…
We give a general solution to the question when the convex hulls of orbits of quantum states on a finite-dimensional Hilbert space under unitary actions of a compact group have a non-empty interior in the surrounding space of all density…
Relative entropy (divergence) of Bregman type recently proposed by T. D. Frank and Jan Naudts is considered and its quantum counterpart is used to calculate purity of the Werner state in nonextensive formalism. It has been observed that two…
We show that the strongly symmetric spectral convex compact sets are precisely the normalized state spaces of finite-dimensional simple Euclidean Jordan algebras and the simplices. Spectrality is the property that every state has a convex…
We show for a general pure entangled state of two two-level atoms, the von Neumann entropy of the partial traces can be directly measured from the magnitude of the mean spin vector of a single atom of the pair. We emphasize the fact that…
The Bregman divergence (Bregman distance, Bregman measure of distance) is a certain useful substitute for a distance, obtained from a well-chosen function (the "Bregman function"). Bregman functions and divergences have been extensively…
We show that there is a unique maximal decomposition of a pure multi-partite (N>2) quantum state into a sum of states which are "locally orthogonal" in the sense that the local reduced state for a term in the sum lives in its own orthogonal…
We consider the bipartite entanglement entropy of ground states of extended quantum systems with a large degeneracy. Often, as when there is a spontaneously broken global Lie group symmetry, basis elements of the lowest-energy space form a…
Quantum spin liquids are phases of matter whose internal structure is not captured by a local order parameter. Particularly intriguing are critical spin liquids, where strongly interacting excitations control low energy properties. Here we…
The entanglement entropy (von Neumann entropy) has been used to characterize the complexity of many-body ground states in strongly correlated systems. In this paper, we try to establish a connection between the lower bound of the von…
Shannon's Entropy Power Inequality can be viewed as characterizing the minimum differential entropy achievable by the sum of two independent random variables with fixed differential entropies. The entropy power inequality has played a key…
Given a categorical dynamical system, i.e. a triangulated category together with an endofunctor, one can try to understand the complexity of the system by computing the entropy of the endofunctor. Computing the entropy of the composition of…
The quantum sine-Gordon model is the simplest massive interacting integrable quantum field theory whose two-particle scattering matrix is generally non-diagonal. As such, it is a model that has been extensively studied, especially in the…
We describe the structure of the bijective transformations on the set of density operators which preserve the Bregman $f$-divergence for an arbitrary differentiable strictly convex function $f.$ Furthermore, we determine the preservers of…
