Instead, it associated the classical observables like position and momentum with matrices whose rows and columns were labelled by ...

Chain rules for quantum Rényi entropies

One of the most fundamental properties of the von Neumann entropy is the so-called chain rule: given a tripartite state ρABC , we can break down the conditional entropy HpAB|Cqρ into two parts: HpAB|Cqρ “ HpA|BCqρ ` HpB|Cqρ . While this rule no longer holds as an eq ...
