Quantum coherence and quantum entanglement are two different manifestations of the superposition principle. In this article we show that the right choice of basis to be used to estimate coherence is the separable basis. The quantum…
Given an arbitrary quantum state ($\sigma$), we obtain an explicit construction of a state $\rho^*_\varepsilon(\sigma)$ (resp. $\rho_{*,\varepsilon}(\sigma)$) which has the maximum (resp. minimum) entropy among all states which lie in a…
We consider the problem of quantum channel certification to unitary, where one is given access to an unknown $d$-dimensional channel $\mathcal{E}$, and wants to test whether $\mathcal{E}$ is equal to a target unitary channel or is…
In its simplest form, decoherence occurs when a quantum state is entangled with a second state, but the results of measurements made on the second state are not accessible. As the second state has effectively "measured" the first, in this…
Using the necessary and sufficient conditions, minimum error discrimination among two sets of similarity transformed equiprobable quantum qudit states is investigated. In the case that the unitary operators are generating sets of two…
Quantum randomness can be certified from probabilistic behaviors demonstrating Bell nonlocality or Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering, leveraging outcomes from uncharacterized devices. However, such nonlocal correlations are not always…
Measurement-based quantum computing enables universal quantum computing with only adaptive single-qubit measurements on certain many-qubit states, such as the graph state, the Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki (AKLT) state, and several…
Suppose we want to identify an input state with one of two unknown reference states, where the input state is guaranteed to be equal to one of the reference states. We assume that no classical knowledge of the reference states is given, but…
We propose an ordered set of experimentally accessible conditions for detecting entanglement in mixed states. The $k$-th condition involves comparing moments of the partially transposed density operator up to order $k$. Remarkably, the…
We cast observable measure of quantum coherence or asymmetry as a resource to control the quantum speed limit (QSL) for unitary evolutions. For non-unitary evolutions, QSL depends on that of the state of the system and environment together.…
We address the problem of unambiguously identifying the state of a probe qudit with the state of one of d reference qudits. The reference states are assumed pure and linearly independent but we have no knowledge of them. The state of the…
We investigate the quantum state discrimination task for sets of linear independent pure states with an intrinsic ordering. This structured discrimination problems allow for a novel scheme that provides a certified level of error, that is,…
Shadow tomography for quantum states provides a sample efficient approach for predicting the properties of quantum systems when the properties are restricted to expectation values of $2$-outcome POVMs. However, these shadow tomography…
Measurements of quantum states form a key component in quantum-information processing. It is therefore an important task to compare measurements and furthermore decide if a measurement strategy is optimal. Entropic quantities, such as the…
We build the counterpart of the celebrated Nielsen's theorem for coherence manipulation in this paper. This offers an affirmative answer to the open question: whether, given two states $\rho$ and $\sigma$, either $\rho$ can be transformed…
We consider a mixed boundary value problem in a domain $\Omega$ contained in a half-ball $B_+$ and having a portion $\bar{T}$ of its boundary in common with the curved part of $\partial B_+$. The problem has to do with some sort of…
We study the geometric measure of quantum coherence recently proposed in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 115, 020403 (2015)]. Both lower and upper bounds of this measure are provided. These bounds are shown to be tight for a class of important coherent…
We study the equivalence testing problem where the goal is to determine if the given two unknown distributions on $[n]$ are equal or $\epsilon$-far in the total variation distance in the conditional sampling model (CFGM, SICOMP16; CRS,…
A barrier certificate often serves as an inductive invariant that isolates an unsafe region from the reachable set of states, and hence is widely used in proving safety of hybrid systems possibly over an infinite time horizon. We present a…
We analyze the complexity of quantum state verification in the context of solving systems of linear equations of the form $A \vec x = \vec b$. We show that any quantum operation that verifies whether a given quantum state is within a…
