Better bounds on optimal measurement and entanglement recovery, with applications to uncertainty and monogamy relations
Joseph M. Renes · Physical Review A · 2017
We extend the recent bounds of Sason and Verd\'u relating R\'enyi entropy and Bayesian hypothesis testing (arXiv:1701.01974.) to the quantum domain and show that they have a number of different applications. First, we obtain a sharper bound relating the optimal probability of correctly distinguishing elements of an ensemble of states to that of the pretty good measurement, and an analogous bound for optimal and pretty good entanglement recovery. Second, we obtain bounds relating optimal guessing and entanglement recovery to the fidelity of the state with a product state, which then leads to tight tripartite uncertainty and monogamy relations.
