Quantum logical entropy: fundamentals and general properties
Boaz Tamir, Ismael L. Paiva, Zohar Schwartzman-Nowik +1
Logical entropy gives a measure, in the sense of measure theory, of the distinctions of a given partition of a set, an idea that can be naturally generalized to classical probabili…
Tsallis entropy is natural in the formulation of quantum noise
Boaz Tamir
In this paper we introduce an easy to compute upper bound on the Tsallis entropy of a density matrix describing a system coupled to a noise source. This suggests that the Tsallis e…
Notes on Adiabatic Quantum Computers
Boaz Tamir, Eliahu Cohen
We discuss in this chapter the basics of adiabatic computation, as well as some physical implementations. After a short introduction of the quantum circuit model, we describe quant…
Quantum Gaussian Channels with Weak Measurements
Boaz Tamir, Eliahu Cohen
In this paper we perform a novel analysis of quantum Gaussian channels in the context of weak measurements. Suppose Alice sends classical information to Bob using a quantum channel…
A Holevo-type bound for a Hilbert Schmidt distance measure
Boaz Tamir, Eliahu Cohen
We prove a new version of the Holevo bound employing the Hilbert-Schmidt norm instead of the Kullback-Leibler divergence. Suppose Alice is sending classical information to Bob usin…
On the Power of Weak Measurements in Separating Quantum States
Boaz Tamir, Eliahu Cohen, Avner Priel
We investigate the power of weak measurements in the framework of quantum state discrimination. First, we define and analyze the notion of weak consecutive measurements. Our main r…
