Sub- and super-fidelity as bounds for quantum fidelity

Abstract: We derive several bounds on fidelity between quantum states. In particular we show that fidelity is bounded from above by a simple to compute quantity we call super--fidelity. It is analogous to another quantity called sub--fidelity. For any two states of a two--dimensional quantum system (N=2) all three quantities coincide. We demonstrate that sub-- and super--fidelity are concave functions. We also show that super--fidelity is super--multiplicative while sub--fidelity is sub--multiplicative and design feasib… Show more

“…In this paper, we derive lower and upper bounds for the geometric measure of coherence for arbitrary dimension d, by using the concepts of sub-fidelity and super-fidelity introduced in Ref. [29,30,31,32,33]. These bounds are shown to be tight for a class of maximally coherent mixed states.…”

“…and later studied independently in [79] by the name of super-fidelity, where ρ and σ represent two density matrices that belong to L +,1 (H N ). With respect to F N (ρ, σ) the connection with the discrete Wigner functions W ρ (µ, ν) and W σ (µ, ν) can be promptly established as follows:…”

“…, we can extract F G (ρ θ ) from the coefficient of the quadratic term. In the present single-qubit case, the superfidelity is equivalent to the Uhlmann-Jozsa fidelity for both pure and mixed states [40]; we thus obtain the exact QFI through F θ = F G (ρ θ ); see Eq. ( 3).…”
