The Role of Completeness in Probing Symmetry Breaking

Yuya Kusuki, Hiroyasu Tajima, Shion Yamashika

Completeness is widely recognized in quantum information as an important property of a family of monotones, because it ensures that no information relevant to state conversion is l…

Resource-Theoretic Quantifiers of Weak and Strong Symmetry Breaking: Strong Entanglement Asymmetry and Beyond

Yuya Kusuki, Sridip Pal, Hiroyasu Tajima

Quantifying how much a quantum state breaks a symmetry is essential for characterizing phases, nonequilibrium dynamics, and open-system behavior. For mixed states, however, convent…
