| 2026 | Asymptotic Equipartition Property of Subadditive Multipartite Entanglement Measures on Pure StatesabstractWe investigate the asymptotic equipartition property (AEP) in the context of multipartite entanglement measures on pure states. In particular, we formulate AEP for subadditive entanglement measures that admit certain weak conditions. This is motivated by the uniqueness of the entanglement entropy in the asymptotic limit in the bipartite case. From an operational perspective, the result is relevant in the LOCCqscenario (asymptotic local operations and classical communication with a sublinear amount of quantum communication). Analogously to the classical AEP, we show that the regularization of smooth, weakly additive entanglement measures - under mild additional assumptions -yields entanglement measures, that are weakly additive and asymptotically continuous. We then evaluate the mentioned regularization and smoothing procedure for a known family of Rényi type multipartite entanglement measures, showing that the resulting entanglement measures reduce to convex combinations of bipartite entanglement entropies.

| 2025 | Error Exponents for Entanglement Transformations From DegenerationsabstractThis paper explores the trade-off relation between the rate and the strong converse exponent for asymptotic LOCC transformations between pure multipartite states. Any single-copy probabilistic transformation between a pair of states implies that an asymptotic transformation at rate 1 is possible with an exponentially decreasing success probability. However, it is possible that an asymptotic transformation is feasible with nonzero probability, but there is no transformation between any finite number of copies with the same rate, even probabilistically. In such cases it is not known if the optimal success probability decreases exponentially or faster. A fundamental tool for showing the feasibility of an asymptotic transformation is degeneration. Any degeneration gives rise to a sequence of stochastic LOCC transformations from copies of the initial state plus a sublinear number of GHZ states to the same number of copies of the target state. These protocols involve parameters that can be freely chosen, but the choice affects the success probability. In this paper, we characterize an asymptotically optimal choice of the parameters and derive a single-letter expression for the error exponent of the resulting protocol. In particular, this implies an exponential lower bound on the success probability when the stochastic transformation arises from a degeneration. Dávid Bugár, Péter Vrana |

| 2024 | Explicit Error Bounds for Entanglement Transformations Between Sparse Multipartite StatesabstractThe trade-off relation between the rate and the strong converse exponent for probabilistic asymptotic entanglement transformations between pure multipartite states can in principle be characterised in terms of a class of entanglement measures determined implicitly by a set of strong axioms. A nontrivial family of such functionals has recently been constructed, but their previously known characterisations have so far only made it possible to evaluate them in very simple cases. In this paper we derive a new regularised formula for these functionals in terms of a subadditive upper bound, complementing the previously known superadditive lower bound. The upper and lower bounds evaluated on tensor powers differ by a logarithmically bounded term, which provides a bound on the convergence rate. In addition, we find that on states satisfying a certain sparsity constraint, the upper bound is equal to the value of the corresponding additive entanglement measure, therefore the regularisation is not needed for such states, and the evaluation is possible via a single-letter formula. Our results provide explicit bounds on the success probability of transformations by local operations and classical communication and, due to the additivity of the entanglement measures, also on the strong converse exponent for asymptotic transformations.
