ABSTRACT

Recently, various nonclassical properties of quantum states and channels have been characterized through an advantage they provide in quantum information tasks over their classical counterparts. Such advantage can be typically proven to be quantitative, in that larger amounts of quantum resources lead to better performance in the corresponding tasks. So far, these characterizations have been established only in the finite-dimensional setting, hence, leaving out central resources in continuous variable systems such as entanglement and nonclassicality of states as well as entanglement breaking and broadcasting channels. In this Letter, we present a fully general framework for resource quantification in infinite-dimensional systems. The framework is applicable to a wide range of resources with the only premises being that classical randomness cannot create a resource and that the resourceless objects form a closed set in an appropriate sense. As the latter may be hard to establish for the abstract topologies of continuous variable systems, we provide a relaxation of the condition with no reference to topology. This envelopes the aforementioned resources and various others, hence, giving them an interpretation as performance enhancement in so-called input-output games.

ABSTRACT

A key ingredient in quantum resource theories is a notion of measure. Such as a measure should have a number of fundamental properties, and desirably also a clear operational meaning. Here we show that a natural measure known as the convex weight, which quantifies the resource cost of a quantum device, has all the desired properties. In particular, the convex weight of any quantum resource corresponds exactly to the relative advantage it offers in an exclusion (or antidistinguishability) task. After presenting the general result, we show how the construction works for state assemblages, sets of measurements, and sets of transformations. Moreover, in order to bound the convex weight analytically, we give a complete characterization of the convex components and corresponding weights of such devices.

ABSTRACT

Quantum steering refers to the possibility for Alice to remotely steer Bob's state by performing local measurements on her half of a bipartite system. Two necessary ingredients for steering are entanglement and incompatibility of Alice's measurements. In particular, it is known that for the case of pure states of maximal Schmidt rank the problem of steerability for Bob's assemblage is equivalent to the problem of joint measurability for Alice's observables. We show that such an equivalence holds in general; namely, the steerability of any assemblage can always be formulated as a joint measurability problem, and vice versa. We use this connection to introduce steering inequalities from joint measurability criteria and develop quantifiers for the incompatibility of measurements.
