abstract

In this article, we prove that the quantum $f$-divergence between two normal states on a semifinite von~Neumann algebra is equal to the classical $f$-divergence between two corresponding classical states, which are called Nussbaum-Szko{\l}a distributions. This result has been proved by the second named author and T.C.~John for normal states on the von~Neumann algebra $\mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$ of all bounded operators on a Hilbert space $\mathscr{H}$. We extend their result for normal states on any semifinite von~Neumann algebra, not only $\mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$.
