A proper choice of subsystems for a system of identical particles e.g., bosons, is provided by second-quantized modes i.e.,creation/annihilation operators. Here we investigate how the entanglement properties of bipartite gaussian states of…

We show that incoherent operations (IOs) can achieve the state transformations that are forbidden under dephasing-covariant incoherent operations (DIOs), thereby resolving the open problem posed by Chitambar and Gour [Phys. Rev. Lett. 117,…
