General bounds for quantum discord and discord distance (1411.3772v1)

Published 14 Nov 2014 in quant-ph

Abstract: For any bipartite state, how strongly can one subsystem be quantum correlated with another? Using the Koashi-Winter relation, we study the upper bound of purified quantum discord, which is given by the sum of the von Neumann entropy of the unmeasured subsystem and the entanglement of formation shared between the unmeasured subsystem with the environment. In particular, we find that the Luo et al.'s conjecture on the quantum correlations and the Lindblad conjecture are all ture, when the entanglement of formation vanishes. Let the difference between the left discord and the right discord be captured by the discord distance. If the Lindblad conjecture is true, we show that the joint entropy is a tight upper bound for the discord distance. Further, we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for saturating upper bounds of purified quantum discord and discord distance separately with the equality conditions for the Araki-Lieb inequality and the Lindblad conjecture. Furthermore, we show that the subadditive relation holds for any bipartite quantum discord.
