Multivariate Trace Inequalities
Abstract We prove several trace inequalities that extend the Golden-Thompson and the Araki-LiebThirring inequality to arbitrarily many matrices. In particular, we strengthen Lieb’s triple matrix inequality. As an example application of our four matrix extension of the Golden-Thompson inequality, we prove remainder terms for the monotonicity of the quantum relative entropy and strong sub-additiv...
متن کاملInequalities for Quantum Relative Entropy
Some logarithmic trace inequalities involving the notions of relative entropy are reobtained from a log-majorization result. The thermodynamic inequality is generalized and a chain of equivalent statements involving this inequality and the Peierls-Bogoliubov inequality is obtained.
متن کاملA Minkowski Type Trace Inequality and Strong Subadditivity of Quantum Entropy Ii: Convexity and Concavity
We revisit and prove some convexity inequalities for trace functions conjectured in the earlier part I. The main functional considered is Φp,q(A1, A2, . . . , Am) = (
متن کاملContinuity bounds on the quantum relative entropy — II
The quantum relative entropy is frequently used as a distance measure between two quantum states, and inequalities relating it to other distance measures are important mathematical tools in many areas of quantum information theory. We have derived many such inequalities in previous work. The present paper is a follow-up on this, and provides a sharp upper bound on the relative entropy in terms ...
متن کاملMonotonicity of quantum relative entropy and recoverability
The relative entropy is a principal measure of distinguishability in quantum information theory, with its most important property being that it is non-increasing under noisy quantum operations. Here, we establish a remainder term for this inequality that quantifies how well one can recover from a loss of information by employing a rotated Petz recovery map. The main approach for proving this re...
