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…

We study the Hoeffding regime of composite quantum hypothesis testing, in which each hypothesis is specified by a sequence of sets of quantum states. We establish quantum Hoeffding bounds under a set of structural assumptions, orthogonal to…

The sandwiched R\'enyi $\alpha$-divergences of two finite-dimensional quantum states play a distinguished role among the many quantum versions of R\'enyi divergences as the tight quantifiers of the trade-off between the two error…
A variety of new measures of quantum Renyi mutual information and quantum Renyi conditional entropy have recently been proposed, and some of their mathematical properties explored. Here, we show that the Renyi mutual information attains…
The trade-offs between error probabilities in quantum hypothesis testing are by now well-understood in the centralized setting, but much less is known for distributed settings. Here, we study a distributed binary hypothesis testing problem…
We revisit the problem of asymmetric binary hypothesis testing against a composite alternative hypothesis. We introduce a general framework to treat such problems when the alternative hypothesis adheres to certain axioms. In this case we…
Distance measures between quantum states like the trace distance and the fidelity can naturally be defined by optimizing a classical distance measure over all measurement statistics that can be obtained from the respective quantum states.…
One possibility of defining a quantum R\'enyi $\alpha$-divergence of two quantum states is to optimize the classical R\'enyi $\alpha$-divergence of their post-measurement probability distributions over all possible measurements (measured…
Quantum generalizations of Renyi's entropies are a useful tool to describe a variety of operational tasks in quantum information processing. Two families of such generalizations turn out to be particularly useful: the Petz quantum Renyi…
Recently, an interesting quantity called the quantum Renyi divergence (or "sandwiched" Renyi relative entropy) was defined for pairs of positive semi-definite operators $\rho$ and $\sigma$. It depends on a parameter $\alpha$ and acts as a…
We introduce a new quantum R\'enyi divergence $D^{\#}_{\alpha}$ for $\alpha \in (1,\infty)$ defined in terms of a convex optimization program. This divergence has several desirable computational and operational properties such as an…
