Robustness of asymmetry and coherence of quantum states

M Piani, M Cianciaruso, TR Bromley, C Napoli… - Physical Review A, 2016 - APS
Quantum states may exhibit asymmetry with respect to the action of a given group. Such an
asymmetry of states can be considered a resource in applications such as quantum …

Quantum processes which do not use coherence

B Yadin, J Ma, D Girolami, M Gu, V Vedral - Physical Review X, 2016 - APS

existence of superposition states. The recently developed resource theory of quantum …

Operational resource theory of continuous-variable nonclassicality

B Yadin, FC Binder, J Thompson, V Narasimhachar… - Physical Review X, 2018 - APS
Genuinely quantum states of a harmonic oscillator may be distinguished from their classical
