Quantum-Kaniadakis entropy as a measure of quantum correlations through implicit bounds

Narayan S Iyer, Shraddha Sharma

TL;DR

This work investigates how the negative values of the quantum Kaniadakis conditional entropy $S^{\\mathcal{K}}_{\\alpha}(A|B)$ relate to the fully entangled fraction $FEF(\\rho_{AB})$ as a predictor of a state's usefulness for teleportation and its steerability. By deriving explicit expressions for $S^{\\mathcal{K}}_{\\alpha}(A|B)$ and $FEF$ for key states (two-qubit Werner and Weyl states, and their $d\\otimes d$ generalizations including isotropic and Werner states), the authors establish implicit bounds on $FEF$ that must hold when $S^{\\mathcal{K}}_{\\alpha}(A|B)<0$, and identify exception regions where these bounds are inconclusive. They further connect this entropic framework to $k$-copy steering, showing that negative $S^{\\mathcal{K}}_{\\alpha}$ implies $k$-copy steerability for isotropic states under projective measurements for certain $(d,\\alpha, F)$ regimes, thereby providing a practical route to assess steerability via $FEF$. The results extend the entropic-characterization toolkit to higher dimensions and link generalized quantum entropy to operational tasks in quantum information processing, offering new criteria to certify non-usefulness for teleportation and to certify steerability via FEF-based bounds.

Abstract

In the present article, we examine the relationship of negative conditional quantum Kaniadakis entropy ($α-$CQKE) with the fully entangled fraction (FEF) which is a substantial yardstick for quantum information processing protocols including teleportation, and quantum steerability, executed over four vital quantum states with maximally mixed marginals, the 2-qubit Werner state, the 2-qubit Weyl state, the 2-qudit Werner state and the isotropic state. We initiate our analysis in 2$\otimes$2 systems where we derive implicit bounds on FEF when the $α-$CQKE takes negative values, i.e. when $α-$CQKE $\in$ $R^{-}$ for 2-qubit Werner state. Consequently, we derive the sufficient implicit bounds for a definitive claim on the non-usefulness of Werner state for quantum teleportation provided its visibility parameter succeeds to elude a critical region, the exception region 1, where the situation becomes inconclusive. Subsequently, we replicate the same for the 2-qubit Weyl state with some constraints augmented by an analogous exception region 2 and the correlation tensor matrix elements. Furthermore, we extend our investigation to d $\otimes$ d states, commencing our analysis with the Isotropic state. We derive implicit bounds on FEF of the Isotropic state and the 2-qudit Werner state resembling the ones in the 2$\otimes$2 analysis. Additionally, we utilize the convoluted relationship between the FEF and quantum steerability to formulate propositions linking negative $α-$CQKE to the k-copy steerability of isotropic states for projective measurements, thereby reducing the intricacy of the study of k-copy steerability directly via FEF. In the appendix section of the article, we provide corroborative calculations and supplementary materials to the theorems presented in the main sections.

Key Result

Theorem 1

If the $\alpha$-CQKE of a two-qubit Werner state is negative, then the FEF must satisfy the implicit bounds induced by the inequality where $\delta = min \{\delta_{1},\delta_{2}\}$, $\delta_{i}$ are eigenvalue of $\rho_{2}^{wer}$, the multiplicity of eigenvalue $\delta_2$ is three and $\hat{K}_{\alpha} (x) = x^{1-\alpha} - x^{1+\alpha}$.

  • Figure 1: $(a)$ Plot of $\hat{K}_{\alpha}(x)$. The plots $(b)$ and $(c)$ correspond to the cases of $\hat{g}(\alpha)> 1/4$ (case 1, section \ref{['constr_excep_reg_1']}) and $\hat{g}(\alpha)<1/4$ (case 2, \ref{['constr_excep_reg_1']}) to facilitate the computations regarding the construction of exception region 1 detailed in section \ref{['constr_excep_reg_1']}.
  • Figure 2: Plots of ${S_{\alpha}^{\mathcal{K}}(A|B)}_{\rho_2^{iso}}$ vs $FEF(\rho_2^{iso})$ as a supplementary material for proposition \ref{['prop_7']} in section \ref{['sec_5']}. We consider the $\alpha$ values $0^{+},~0.1,~0.3,~0.5,~0.75$ in order to portray that $FEF(\rho_2^{iso})$ is lower bounded by 0.81 regardless of value of $\alpha \in (0,1).$
  • Figure 3: Plots of ${S_{\alpha}^{\mathcal{K}}(A|B)}_{\rho_6^{iso}}$ vs $FEF(\rho_6^{iso})$ as a supplementary material for proposition \ref{['prop_8']} observation 1 in section \ref{['sec_5']}. We consider the $\alpha$ values $0^{+},~0.1,~0.3,~0.5,~0.75$ in order to portray that $FEF(\rho_6^{iso})$ is lower bounded by 0.66 regardless of value of $\alpha \in (0,1).$
  • Figure 4: Plots of ${S_{\alpha}^{\mathcal{K}}(A|B)}_{\rho_d^{iso}}$ vs $FEF(\rho_d^{iso})$ as a supplementary material for proposition \ref{['prop_8']} observation 2 in section \ref{['sec_5']}. We consider 2 values of $\alpha = 0.1,~0.5$ and 3 values of $d=6,~7,~8$ for our analysis.
  • Figure 5: Plot of ${S_{0^+}^{\mathcal{K}}(A|B)}_{\rho_{\infty}^{iso}}$ vs $FEF(\rho_{\infty}^{iso})$ as a supplementary material for proposition \ref{['prop_8']} observation 3 in section \ref{['sec_5']}. It clearly highlights the fact that $\lim_{(d,\alpha)\rightarrow(\alpha,0^{+})}S_{\alpha}^{\mathcal{K}}(\rho_d^{iso}) = 0.506 \approx 0.51$.
