On quantum quasi-relative entropy

Abstract

We consider a quantum quasi-relative entropy $S_f^K$ for an operator $K$ and an operator convex function $f$. We show how to obtain the error bounds for the monotonicity and joint convexity inequalities from the recent results for the $f$-divergences (i.e. $K=I$). We also provide an error term for a class of operator inequalities, that generalize operator strong subadditivity inequality. We apply those results to demonstrate explicit bounds for the logarithmic function, that leads to the quantum relative entropy, and the power function, which gives, in particular, a Wigner-Yanase-Dyson skew information. In particular, we provide the remainder terms for the strong subadditivity inequality, operator strong subadditivity inequality, WYD-type inequalities, and the Cauchy-Schwartz inequality.
