A new paradigm for distributed quantum systems where information is a valuable resource is developed. After finding a unique measure for information, we construct a scheme for it's manipulation in analogy with entanglement theory. In this…

Local information objectivity, that local, independent observers can infer the same information about a model upon exchange of independently acquired experimental data, is fundamental to science. It is mathematically encoded via Cencov's…

The states of the qubit, the basic unit of quantum information, are $2 \times 2$ positive semi-definite Hermitian matrices with trace 1. We contribute to the program to axiomatize quantum mechanics by characterizing these states in terms of…
