abstract

In previous work (see arxiv:1102.3040), we have defined the telescopic relative entropy (TRE), which is a regularisation of the quantum relative entropy $S(\rho||\sigma)=\trace\rho(\log\rho-\log\sigma)$, by replacing the second argument $\sigma$ by a convex combination of the first and the second argument, $\tau=a\rho+(1-a)\sigma$ and dividing the result by $-\log a$. We also explored some basic properties of the TRE. In this follow-up paper we state and prove two upper bounds on the variation of the TRE when either the first or the second argument changes. These bounds are close in spirit to a triangle inequality. For the ordinary relative entropy no such bounds are possible due to the fact that the variation could be infinite.

Detecting and quantifying non-Markovianity via quantum direct cause

quant-ph · 2025-06-29 · conditional · novelty 5.0

Pseudo-density-matrix measures detect eternal CP-indivisibility that temporal steering, trace distance, and entropic measures miss, and a new continuous-time causality measure generalizes the Rivas-Huelga-Plenio witness.
