We use the Tomita-Takesaki modular theory and the Kubo-Ando operator mean to write down a large class of multi-state quantum $f$-divergences and prove that they satisfy the data processing inequality. For two states, this class includes the…

It has long been conjectured that the entropy of quantum fields across boundaries scales as the boundary area. This conjecture has not been easy to test in spacetime dimensions greater than four because of divergences in the von Neumann…

Renyi reflected entropies of order $n \geq 2$ are correlation measures that have been introduced in the field of holography. In this work, we put the spotlight on the min-reflected entropy, i.e., the Renyi reflected entropy in the limit $n…
