We refine Epstein's method to prove joint concavity/convexity of matrix trace functions of Lieb type $\mathrm{Tr}\,f(\Phi(A^p)^{1/2}\Psi(B^q)\Phi(A^p)^{1/2})$ and symmetric (anti-) norm functions of the form…

Security proofs in quantum cryptography rely on conditional entropies. In a many-round protocol, their estimation is a challenging task; one must account for the most general attacks by an eavesdropper, including those that are not…

We derive a Lipschitz continuity bound for quantum-classical conditional entropies with respect to angular distance, with a Lipschitz constant that is independent of the dimension of the conditioning system. This bound is sharper in some…

The most fundamental properties of quantum entropy are derived by considering the union of two ensembles. We discuss the limits these properties put on an entropy measure and obtain that they uniquely determine the form of the entropy…

In this note we introduce a new family of entropy powers which are related to generalized entropies, called Sharma-Mittal entropies, and we prove their concavity along diffusion processes generated by $L^2$-Wasserstein gradient flows of…
