Error Exponents of Probabilistic Quantum Resource Distillation

RESUMO

In this manuscript, we establish a unified framework for analyzing the conditional error exponents of probabilistic resource distillation under approximately resource-nongenerating instruments. For generic quantum resource theories satisfying suitable structural conditions, we derive general oneshot bounds on the conditional distillation error exponents. By relating probabilistic distillation to postselected composite quantum hypothesis testing, we obtain bounds of the conditional error exponents for coherence distillation under finite blocklength and asymptotic zero-rate scenarios, we furthermore obtain analytical characterizations of the conditional error exponents for entanglement and magic distillation under finite blocklength and asymptotic zero-rate scenarios. For several representative families of states in entanglement and magic resource theories, these characterizations reduce to explicit closed-form formulas. Comparing them with the corresponding deterministic distillation exponents, we identify regimes in which postselection yields a strict improvement in the exponential decay rate of the conditional error. Our results reveal an operational advantage of postselection in quantum resource distillation and establish postselected composite hypothesis testing as a general tool for characterizing probabilistic resource-processing tasks.
