Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to clarify the physical significance of the new quantum information theoretic quantity called odd entropy, which was recently discovered by the applicant. As a result, the fundamental properties of the odd entropy, such as the basic relations it satisfies, and its applicability to various physical phenomena (e.g., thermalization, phase transition, decoherence processes, etc.) were clarified. Not only that, the applicant discovered a new quantum information quantity called "pseudo entropy", and conducted similar research.
