A Measure of Quantum Correlation Based on von Neumann Entropy and Positive Operator-Valued Measurement

Abstract

Quantum correlations in composite quantum systems are at the origin of the most peculiar features of quantum mechanics such as the violation of Bells inequalities and non-locality. In quantum information theory, they are viewed as quantum resources used by quantum algorithms and communication protocols to outperform their classical analogs. In this paper, we define a new measure of quantum correlation based on von Neumann entropy and positive operator-valued measurement,which has clear physical meaning and we can prove that it satisfying many good property for a measure of quantumness.
