Set coherence is a basis-independent relational form of quantum coherence: a finite family of quantum states is set incoherent exactly when all its members are diagonal in one common basis. We determine how much low-order Bargmann data are…

Given a set of ordered quantum states, described by density operators $% \{\rho _{j}\}_{j=1}^{n}$, the Bargmann invariant of $\{\rho _{j}\}_{j=1}^{n}$ is defined as tr($\rho _{1}\rho _{2}...\rho _{n}$). Bargmann invariant serves as a…
