Moderate deviation analysis of majorisation-based resource interconversion

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We consider the problem of interconverting a finite amount of resources within all theories whose single-shot transformation rules are based on a majorisation relation, e.g. the resource theories of entanglement and coherence (for pure state transformations), as well as thermodynamics (for energy-incoherent transformations). When only finite resources are available we expect to see a non-trivial trade-off between the rate rn at which n copies of a resource state ho can be transformed into nrn copies of another resource state sigma, and the error level varepsilonn of the interconversion process, as a function of n. In this work we derive the optimal trade-off in the so-called moderate deviation regime, where the rate of interconversion rn approaches its optimum in the asymptotic limit of unbounded resources (noinfty), while the error epsilonn vanishes in the same limit. We find that the moderate deviation analysis exhibits a resonance behaviour which implies that certain pairs of resource states can be interconverted at the asymptotically optimal rate with negligible error, even in the finite n regime.
