Quantifying nonclassicality of multimode bosonic fields via skew information
Yue Zhang, Shunlong Luo · Communications in Theoretical Physics · 2021
Abstract We quantify the nonclassicality of multimode bosonic field states by adopting an information-theoretic approach involving the Wigner-Yanase skew information. The fundamental properties of the quantifier such as convexity, superadditivity, monotonicity, and conservation relations are revealed. The quantifier is illustrated by a variety of typical examples, and applications to the quantification of nonclassical correlations are discussed. Various extensions are indicated.
