Experimental detection of entanglement of an arbitrary state of a given bipartite system is crucial for exploring many areas of quantum information. But such a detection should be made in a device independent way if the preparation process…
In free-space Quantum Key Distribution in turbulent conditions, scattering and beam wandering cause intensity fluctuations which increase the detected signal-to-noise ratio. This effect can be mitigated by rejecting received bits when the…
It is very crucial to know that whether the quantum state generated in the experiment is entangled or not. In the literature, this topic was studied extensively and researchers proposed different approaches for the detection of mixed…
A quantum analogue of the Central Limit Theorem (CLT) for bosonic system, first introduced by Cushen and Hudson (1971), states that the $n$-fold convolution $\rho^{\boxplus n}$ of an $m$-mode quantum state $\rho$, with zero first moments…

Quantum states are the key mathematical objects in quantum mechanics, and entanglement lies at the heart of the nascent fields of quantum information processing and computation. However, there has not been a general, necessary and…
We study a variant of quantum hypothesis testing wherein an additional 'inconclusive' measurement outcome is added, allowing one to abstain from attempting to discriminate the hypotheses. The error probabilities are then conditioned on a…
The impossibility of deterministic and error-free discrimination among nonorthogonal quantum states lies at the core of quantum theory and constitutes a primitive for secure quantum communication. Demanding determinism leads to errors,…
Quantum hypothesis testing (QHT) provides an effective method to discriminate between two quantum states using a two-outcome positive operator-valued measure (POVM). Two types of decision errors in a QHT can occur. In this paper we focus on…
We argue that if black hole entropy arises from a finite number of underlying quantum states, then any particular such state can be identified from infinity. The finite density of states implies a discrete energy spectrum, and, in general,…
Historically, the focus in entanglement distillation has predominantly been on the distillable entanglement, and the framework assumes complete knowledge of the initial state. In this paper, we study the reliability function of entanglement…
Deterministic discrimination of nonorthogonal states is forbidden by quantum measurement theory. However, if we do not want to succeed all the time, i.e. allow for inconclusive outcomes to occur, then unambiguous discrimination becomes…
We consider the problem of discrimination between two pure quantum states. It is well known that the optimal measurement under both the error-probability and log-loss criteria is a projection, while under an ``erasure-distortion'' criterion…
Discrimination between quantum states is a fundamental task in quantum information theory. Given two arbitrary tensor-product quantum states (TPQS) $\rho_{\pm} = \rho_{\pm}^{(1)} \otimes \cdots \otimes \rho_{\pm}^{(N)}$, determining the…
Quantum states that remain separable (i.e., not entangled) under any global unitary transformation are known as absolutely separable and form a convex set. Despite extensive efforts, the complete characterization of this set remains largely…
We focus on determining the separability of an unknown bipartite quantum state $\rho$ by invoking a sufficiently large subset of all possible entanglement witnesses given the expected value of each element of a set of mutually orthogonal…
