Transcendental properties of entropy-constrained sets: Part II

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: In this work, we address the question of the impossibility of certain single-letter formulas by exploiting the semi-algebraic nature of various entropy-constrained sets. The focus lies on studying the properties of the level sets of relative entropy, mutual information, and R'{e}nyi entropies. We analyze the transcendental structure of the set of states in which one of the aforementioned entropy quantities is fixed. Our results rule out (semi)algebraic single-shot characterizations of these entropy measures with bounded ancilla for both the classical and quantum cases.
