Quantifying the non-Gaussian character of a quantum state by quantum relative entropy

Quantifying the non-Gaussian character of a quantum state by quantum relative entropy

We introduce a measure to quantify the non-Gaussian character of a quantum state: the quantum relative entropy between the state under examination and a reference Gaussian state. We analyze in detail the properties of our measure and illustrate its relationships with relevant quantities in quantum information such as the Holevo …
