We study a proper definition of R\'enyi mutual information (RMI) in quantum field theory as defined via the Petz R\'enyi relative entropy. Unlike the standard definition, the RMI we compute is a genuine measure of correlations between…
We explore a large class of correlation measures called the $\alpha-z$ R\'enyi mutual informations (RMIs). Unlike the commonly used notion of RMI involving linear combinations of R\'enyi entropies, the $\alpha-z$ RMIs are positive…

The conditional quantum mutual information $I(A;B|C)$ of a tripartite state $\rho_{ABC}$ is an information quantity which lies at the center of many problems in quantum information theory. Three of its main properties are that it is…
We propose an extension of the classical R\'enyi divergences to quantum states through an optimization over probability distributions induced by restricted sets of measurements. In particular, we define the notion of locally-measured…

Correlation function and mutual information are two powerful tools to characterize the correlations in a quantum state of a composite system, widely used in many-body physics and in quantum information science, respectively. We find that…
Mutual information is fundamentally important for measuring statistical dependence between variables and for quantifying information transfer by signaling and communication mechanisms. It can, however, be challenging to evaluate for…
In quantum information theory it is generally accepted that quantum mutual information is an information-theoretic measure of total correlations of a bipartite quantum state. We argue that there exist quantum states for which quantum mutual…
