Convex ordering and quantification of quantumness
The characterization of physical systems requires a comprehensive
understanding of quantum effects. One aspect is a proper quantification of the
strength of such quantum phenomena. Here, a general convex ordering of quantum
states will be introduced which is based on the algebraic definition of
classical states. This definition resolves the ambiguity of the quantumness
quantification using topological distance measures. Classical operations on
quantum states will be considered to further generalize the ordering
prescription. Our technique can be used for a natural and unambiguous
quantification of general quantum properties whose classical reference has a
convex structure. We apply this method to typical scenarios in quantum optics
and quantum information theory to study measures which are based on the
fundamental quantum superposition principle.Comment: 9 pages, 2 figures, revised version; published in special issue "150
