Abstract

The article investigates the application of Tsallis and Rényi entropies to quantify quantum coherence, a crucial concept in quantum mechanics with applications in thermodynamics, transport theory, and quantum optics. Traditional coherence measures based on distance metrics are compared with these entropy-based measures, highlighting their advantages such as explicit calculation and operational significance in quantum thermodynamics. The authors introduce new coherence measures inspired by these entropies and provide a comprehensive analysis of their properties, including continuity, monotonicity, and strong monotonicity under various incoherent operations. The article also discusses the limitations of these measures and proposes improved coherence measures, making it a valuable resource for researchers in quantum information science and related fields.
