Analyzing the Free States of one Quantum Resource Theory as Resource States of Another

ABSTRACT In the context of quantum resource theories (QRTs), free states are defined as those that can be obtained at no cost under a certain restricted set of conditions. However, when taking a free state from one QRT and evaluating it through the optics of another QRT, it might well turn out that the state is now extremely resourceful. Such realization has recently prompted numerous works characterizing states across several QRTs. In this work, we contribute to this body of knowledge by analyzing the resourcefulness in free states for—and across witnesses of—the QRTs of multipartite entanglement, fermionic non‐Gaussianity, imaginarity, realness, spin coherence, Clifford non‐stabilizerness, ‐equivariance, and non‐uniform entanglement. We provide rigorous theoretical results as well as present numerical studies that showcase the rich and complex behavior that arises in this type of cross‐examination.
