In quantum mechanics, outcomes of measurements on a state have a probabilistic interpretation while the evolution of the state is treated deterministically. Here we show that one can also treat the evolution as being probabilistic in nature…

Given a non-empty closed convex subset $\mathsf{F}$ of density matrices, we formulate conditions that guarantee the existence of an $\mathsf{F}$-morphism (namely, a completely positive trace-preserving linear map that maps $\mathsf{F}$ into…

The resource theory of imaginarity studies the operational value of imaginary parts in quantum states, operations, and measurements. Here we introduce and study the distillation and conversion of imaginarity in distributed scenario. This…

Quantum theory makes the most accurate empirical predictions and yet it lacks simple, comprehensible physical principles from which the theory can be uniquely derived. A broad class of probabilistic theories exist which all share some…
