Indeed, in arxiv.org/abs/2408.15226 we take a different path, using a variant of Frenkl's integral representation of the relative entropy in terms of hockey-stick divergences due to Christoph Hirche. This also leads us to a provably tight bound on relative entropy difference.

Prof. Dr. Reinhard Werner erhält die Max-Planck-Medaille der Deutschen Physikalischen Gesellschaft. Er war von 2009 bis 2023 Professor am Institut für Theoretische Physik der #LUH. Die DPG würdigt seine Beiträge auf dem Gebiet der Quanteninformation. uni-hannover.de/de/universitae…

Part of a long tradition: Indo-German collaboration in science and technology. Today DSTIndia Humboldt-Stiftung and IIT Bombay brought together young scientist in Mumbai to explore the Frontiers of Engineering covering latest development in areas as diverse as space and agriculture

New preprint: Not too long ago, Marco Tomamichel and I gave a new definition of quantum f-divergences (see below). Now, we teamed up with Salman Beigi to dive deeper into their properties and how they relate to previous definitions: scirate.com/arxiv/2501.037…

Herzlich willkommen an der #LUH: Unter go.lu-h.de/neuberufenenga… alle neu berufenen Professorinnen und Professoren des Jahres 2024 mit Foto und Kurztext vorgestellt.

We're looking for a new addition to our group. Drop me a message if you're interested!

New: "Optimization Driven Quantum Circuit Reduction" w/ Bodo Rosenhahn & Tobias J. Osborne Transpiling quantum circuits well to specific gate sets is a hard but important problem near-term. We apply tools from ML to give an effective and scalable approach scirate.com/arxiv/2502.147…

New preprint in preparation for ISIT: With Oxana Shaya, "Partial orders and contraction for BISO channels" scirate.com/arxiv/2504.167… Within the BISO channels, the BEC/BSC are extremal in many ways. We extend this to further partial orders and show what role contraction plays.

🚨 Job alert 🚨 Principal Investigator Marco Tomamichel's group is looking for a Research Fellow who will work on mathematical aspects of quantum information theory. Apply here: buff.ly/Wi2A5Jv
