Abstract: Quantum theory forbids physical measurements from giving observers enough evidence to distinguish nonorthogonal quantum states - this is an expression of the indeterminism inherent in all quantum phenomena. As a consequence, operational measures of how distinct one quantum state is from another must depend exclusively on the statistics of measurements and nothing else. This compels the use of various information-theoretic measures of distinguishability for probability distributions as the... (Update)

...# # b will be called a lift up of # p , and it is known as purification if it is a pure state. This theorem (proven independently in [16]) actually states that tracing out cannot increase information. It provides a useful upper bound on the mutual information that can be...
