TLDR
In this article, the authors generalize Lieb's convexity theorem and the monotonicity of the relative entropy using the Jensen inequality of operator convex functions and derive the quantum version of Renyi's α-entropies.

Quantum Computation and Quantum Information

TL;DR: This chapter discusses quantum information theory, public-key cryptography and the RSA cryptosystem, and the proof of Lieb's theorem.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantum resource theories

TL;DR: This paper introduced a new development in theoretical quantum physics, the ''resource-theoretic'' point of view, which aims to be closely linked to experiment, and to state exactly what result you can hope to achieve for what expenditure of effort in the laboratory.

Fundamental limitations for quantum and nanoscale thermodynamics

TL;DR: It is found that there are fundamental limitations on work extraction from non-equilibrium states, owing to finite size effects and quantum coherences, which implies that thermodynamical transitions are generically irreversible at this scale.

An Introduction to Matrix Concentration Inequalities

TL;DR: The matrix concentration inequalities as discussed by the authors are a family of matrix inequalities that can be found in many areas of theoretical, applied, and computational mathematics. But they are not suitable for the analysis of random matrices.

General properties of entropy

TL;DR: This paper discusses properties of entropy, as well as related concepts such as relative entropy, skew entropy, dynamical entropy, etc, in detail with reference to their implications in statistical mechanics, to get a glimpse of systems with infinitely many degrees of freedom.
