We introduce the concept of the ``polarized'' distance, which distinguishes the orthogonal states with different energies. We also give new inequalities for the known Hilbert-Schmidt distance between neighbouring states and express this…
In a recent paper, a "distance" function, \cal D, was defined which measures the distance between pure classical and quantum systems. In this work, we present a new definition of a "distance", D, which measures the distance between either…
It is well established that unpolarized light is invariant with respect to any SU(2) polarization transformation. This requirement fully characterizes the set of density matrices representing unpolarized states. We introduce the degree of…
Given $E \subseteq \mathbb{F}_q^d \times \mathbb{F}_q^d$, with the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of order $q$ and the integer $d \ge 2$, we define the two-parameter distance set as $\Delta_{d, d}(E)=\left\{\left(\|x_1-y_1\|,…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of order $q$. Iosevich and Rudnev (2005) proved that for any set $A\subset \mathbb{F}_q^d$, if $|A|\gg q^{\frac{d+1}{2}}$, then the distance set $\Delta(A)$ contains a positive proportion of all…
The distance function $\varrho(p,q)$ (or $d(p,q)$) of a distance space (general metric space) is not differentiable in general. We investigate such distance spaces over $\mathbb R^n$, whose distance functions are differentiable like in case…
On the space of positive definite matrices we consider distance functions of the form $d(A,B)=\left[\tr\mathcal{A}(A,B)-\tr\mathcal{G}(A,B)\right]^{1/2},$ where $\mathcal{A}(A,B)$ is the arithmetic mean and $\mathcal{G}(A,B)$ is one of the…
The notion of distance defined on the set of states of a composite quantum system can be used to quantify total, quantum and classical correlations in a unifying way. We provide new closed formulae for classical and total correlations of…
We propose an operational measure of distance of two quantum states, which conversely tells us their closeness. This is defined as a sum of differences in partial knowledge over a complete set of mutually complementary measurements for the…
The distance between a quantum state and its closest state not having a certain property has been used to quantify the amount of correlations corresponding to that property. This approach allows a unified view of the various kinds of…
We study the distance of two wave functions under chaotic time evolution. The two initial states are differed only by a local perturbation. To be entitled "chaos" the distance should have a rapid growth afterwards. Instead of focusing on…
We thoroughly analyse the distance between quantum states that has been applied to state-dependent cloning and partly studied in the previous work of the author [Phys. Rev. A 66, 042304 (2002)]. Elementary proofs of its significant…
The aim of the present article is to give an introduction to the concept of quasi-unitary equivalence and to define several (pseudo-)metrics on the space of self-adjoint operators acting possibly in different Hilbert spaces. As some of the…
In a recent paper, the generalization of the Jensen Shannon divergence (JSD) in the context of quantum theory has been studied (Phys. Rev. A 72, 052310 (2005)). This distance between quantum states has shown to verify several of the…
In this work, we perform an in-depth study of recently introduced average-case quantum distances. The average-case distances approximate the average Total-Variation (TV) distance between measurement outputs of two quantum processes, in…
We provide a definition of the quantum distances of correlated many fermion wave functions in terms of the expectation values of certain operators that we call exchange operators. We prove that the distances satisfy the triangle…
In this report we consider the three dimensional subset of the space of states of two qubits that may be written in the so called standard form. For those states we show that different measures of entanglement, specifically concurrence,…
The aim of this article is to define and compare several distances (or metrics) between operators acting on different (separable) Hilbert spaces. We consider here three main cases of how to measure the distance between two bounded…
We present several operator versions of the Dunkl--Williams inequality with respect to the $p$-angular distance for operators. More precisely, we show that if $A, B \in \mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$ such that $|A|$ and $|B|$ are invertible,…
Let F be a subfield of a commutative field extending R. Let phi_n:F^n \times F^n ->F, phi_n((x_1,...,x_n),(y_1,...,y_n))=(x_1-y_1)^2+...+(x_n-y_n)^2. We say that f:R^n->F^n preserves distance d>=0 if for each x,y \in R^n |x-y|=d implies…
