Abstract

Quantifying the quantumness of ensembles is a vital and practical task in quantum information theory. In this paper, we quantify the quantumness of quantum ensembles based on a quantifier of the coherence of ensembles via generalized α-z-relative Renyi entropy. It is shown that this measure satisfies the intuitive and desirable properties which are required by a measure of quantumness, such as positivity, unitary invariance, monotonicity under any commutativity preserving operations and so on. The relationship between our measure and some existing measures for quantumness of quantum ensembles is discussed. Detailed examples are presented to some important ensembles to illustrate the quantumness given by our measure.
