A generalization of Schur-Weyl duality with applications in quantum estimation
Iman Marvian, Robert W. Spekkens
Schur-Weyl duality is a powerful tool in representation theory which has many applications to quantum information theory. We provide a generalization of this duality and demonstrat…

The asymmetry properties of pure quantum states
Iman Marvian, Robert W. Spekkens
The asymmetry properties of a state relative to some symmetry group specify how and to what extent the given symmetry is broken by the state. Characterizing these is found to be su…

The theory of manipulations of pure state asymmetry: basic tools and equivalence classes of states under symmetric operations
Iman Marvian, Robert W. Spekkens
If a system undergoes symmetric dynamics, then the final state of the system can only break the symmetry in ways in which it was broken by the initial state, and its measure of asy…
