Necessary and sufficient condition for non-zero quantum discord
read the original abstract
Quantum discord characterizes "non-classicality" of correlations in quantum mechanics. It has been proposed as the key resource present in certain quantum communication tasks and quantum computational models without containing much entanglement. We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of non-zero quantum discord for any dimensional bipartite states. This condition is easily experimentally implementable. Based on this, we propose a geometrical way of quantifying quantum discord. For two qubits this results in a closed form of expression for discord. We apply our results to the model of deterministic quantum computation with one qubit, showing that quantum discord is unlikely to be the reason behind its speedup.

Quantumness of top quark pairs produced at LHC within SMEFT framework
Quantum information observables in LHC top quark pair production are modified by SMEFT dimension-6 operators in ways that depend on their CP properties, offering a complementary probe beyond standard observables.

Controlling Quantum discord and steering in Electron-Positron Annihilation Using Polarized Beams
Polarized lepton beams control quantum discord and steering in hyperon-antihyperon pairs from e+e- annihilation, with discord persisting in separable states via transverse polarization.
