Part I:

How to quantity the amount of resources?

[1] Anurag Anshu, MH, Rahul Jain. Quantifying resource in catalytic resource theory. Accepted in Physical Review Letters. [arXiv:1708.00381].

Main Result:

The amount of resource in \(\rho_M\) is equal to \(E^\infty(\rho_M)\)

E(\rho_M)= \inf_{\sigma_M\in\mathcal{F}} D(\rho_M\|\sigma_M)
E(ρM)=infσMFD(ρMσM)E(\rho_M)= \inf_{\sigma_M\in\mathcal{F}} D(\rho_M\|\sigma_M)

It works for 

1. Free States form a convex and close set.

2. Free States remain free under tensor product and partial trace.

Concrete Examples

1. Entanglement

2. Coherence

3. Asymmetry

4. Purity

Regularized Relative Entropy of Entanglement is a right measure for the "quantumness".

Resolved an open question in [1].

Remark

Setup

1. The amount of resource equals the amount of noise used to erase it. 

2. Catalyst is allowed. 

Remark

1. Matching one-shot bounds. 

2. Convex Splitting Lemma is used.

We result coincide with formation of a mixed state \(\rho\) is given by \(C_F(\rho)\) [1].

[1] A. Winter and D. Yang, Phys. Rev. Lett. 116, 120404 (2016).

However, we need extra \(E^{co}\geq \mathrm{E}(\Psi)\) because of the distributed settings.

Let \(C_M(\Psi):=S(X)_{\Delta(\Psi)}+S(Y)_{\Delta(\Psi)}-{E}(\Psi).\)

\(C_M(\Psi)\) is an LIOCC monotone. 

\(C_M(\Psi)=C_a^{A|B}(\Psi)+C_r(\Psi^A).\)

Proof:

Theorem:

\(C_M(\Psi):=S(X)_{\Delta(\Psi)}+S(Y)_{\Delta(\Psi)}-{E}(\Psi).\)

Part IV:

Multipartite Inequivalent Coherence Classes 

[4] Yu Luo, Yongming Li, MH. Inequivalent Multipartite Coherence Classes and New Coherence Monotones. [arXiv:1807.06308].

How many are there for 3-qubit coherence states?

For 3 qubits, there are only two inequivalent entanglement classes under SLOCC.

There are already infinite many inequivalent coherence classes under SLICC for two qubits.
