The variety of multi-partite entangled states enables numerous applications in novel quantum information tasks. In order to compare the suitability of different states from a theoretical point of view classifications have been introduced.…

In the problem of asymptotic binary i.i.d. state discrimination, the optimal asymptotics of the type I and the type II error probabilities is in general an exponential decrease to zero as a function of the number of samples; the set of…

We reexamine basic aspects of a nonequilibrium steady state in the Kondo problem for a quantum dot under a bias voltage using a reduced density matrix, which is obtained in the Fock space by integrating out one of the two conduction…

We demonstrate a Bell state analyzer that operates directly on frequency mismatch. Based on electro-optic modulators and Fourier-transform pulse shapers, our quantum frequency processor design implements interleaved Hadamard gates in…

We explore the link between two concepts: the level of violation of a Bell inequality by a quantum state and discrimination between two states by means of restricted classes of operations, such as local operations and classical…

The optimal error exponents of binary composite i.i.d. state discrimination are trivially bounded by the worst-case pairwise exponents of discriminating individual elements of the sets representing the two hypotheses, and in the…

Recently Flaminio and Montagna, \cite{FlMo}, extended the language of MV-algebras by adding a unary operation, called a state-operator. This notion is introduced here also for effect algebras. Having it, we generalize the Loomis--Sikorski…

A set of classical or quantum states is equivalent to another one if there exists a pair of classical or quantum channels mapping either set to the other one. For dichotomies (pairs of states), this is closely connected to (classical or…
