Convex geometry in the characterisation of quantum resourcesTools Regula, Bartosz (2018) Convex geometry in the characterisation of quantum resources. PhD thesis, University of Nottingham.
AbstractVarious physical phenomena have found use as resources in quantum information processing tasks, and the study of their properties is necessary to provide optimal methods to harness their power. The thesis presents a series of results aiming to characterise the quantitative and operational aspects of general quantum resources, and in particular to establish methods applicable to a variety of resources and emphasise the similarities in their characterisation. Our approach relies on the underlying convex structure of quantum resource theories, employing techniques from convex analysis and optimisation to gain a better understanding of both the fundamental properties of quantum resources as well as our ability to manipulate them efficiently in information processing protocols such as resource distillation.
