from Part III - The General Framework of Resource Theories
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 03 May 2025
Chapter 11 delves into the manipulation of quantum resources, the core aspect of quantum resource theories that explore the transformation and conversion of quantum states within a given resource theory framework. The chapter introduces the generalized asymptotic equipartition property and the generalized quantum Stein’s lemma, both foundational to understanding the asymptotic behavior of quantum resources. These concepts pave the way for discussing the uniqueness of the Umegaki relative entropy in quantifying the efficiency of resource conversion processes. Furthermore, the text explores asymptotic interconversions, detailing the conditions and limits for converting one resource into another when multiple copies of quantum states are considered. This analysis is pivotal for establishing the reversible exchange rates between different resources in the asymptotic limit. By providing a comprehensive overview of resource manipulation strategies, the chapter equips readers with the theoretical tools needed for advanced study and research in quantum resource theories, emphasizing both the single-shot and asymptotic domains.
