Toward computability of trace distance discord
arXiv:1304.6879 · doi:10.1088/1367-2630/16/1/013038
Abstract
It is known that a reliable geometric quantifier of discord-like correlations can be built by employing the so-called trace distance. This is used to measure how far the state under investigation is from the closest "classical-quantum" one. To date, the explicit calculation of this indicator for two qubits was accomplished only for states such that the reduced density matrix of the measured party is maximally mixed, a class that includes Bell-diagonal states. Here, we first reduce the required optimization for a general two-qubit state to the minimization of an explicit two-variable function. Using this framework, we show next that the minimum can be analytically worked out in a number of relevant cases including quantum-classical and X states. This provides an explicit and compact expression for the trace distance discord of an arbitrary state belonging to either of these important classes of density matrices.
