Fidelity and trace-norm distances for quantifying coherence 论文

摘要

We investigate the coherence measures induced by fidelity and trace norm, based on the coherence quantification recently proposed by Baumgratz et al. [T. Baumgratz, M. Cramer, and M. B. Plenio, Phys. Rev. Lett. 113, 140401 (2014)]. We show that the fidelity of coherence does not in general satisfy the monotonicity requirement as a measure of coherence under the subselection of the measurement condition. We find that the trace norm of coherence can act as a measure of coherence for qubits and some special class of qutrits with some restrictions on the incoherent operators, while the general case needs to be explored further.
