SUMMARY:One Shot Non-Catalytic Distributed Purity Distillation
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dr. Sayantan Chakraborty (Centre for Quantum Technolog
 ies\, National University of Singapore)\n\nAbstract: \nPure states are an 
 important resource in many quantum information processing protocols. Howev
 er\, even making a fixed pure state\, say $\\vert 0 \\rangle$\, in the lab
 oratory requires a considerable amount of effort. Often one ends up with a
  mixed state $\\rho$ whose classical description is nevertheless known. He
 nce it is important to develop protocols that extract a fixed pure state f
 rom a known mixed state. In this work\, we study the problem of extracting
  a fixed pure state $\\vert 0 \\rangle^{A'} \\vert{0}\\rangle^{B'}$ from a
  known pure state $\\rho^{AB}$ distributed between two parties $A$ and $B$
 . Here\, $A'$\, $B'$ are subspaces of $A$\, $B$ and the total amount of pu
 rity extracted is $\\log |A'| + \\log |B'|$. The parties can borrow local 
 pure ancilla\, apply local unitary operations and send a message from $A$ 
 to $B$ through a dephasing channel. If local pure ancilla is borrowed\, it
  must be subtracted in order to properly account for the purity extracte
 d. We obtain the most efficient achievable bounds on one shot distributed 
 purity extraction\, in terms of the rate of local ancilla borrowed by the 
 protocol\, while distilling pure qubits at the best known rate. Our protoc
 ols borrow little to no local pure ancilla. Our bounds improve upon the ex
 isting bounds for this problem in both one shot as well as asymptotic iid 
 settings. In particular they subsume all the asymptotic iid results of Dev
 etak and Krovi-Devetak. In addition\, we derive upper bounds for the rate 
 of distillation in the one shot setting\, which nearly match our achievabl
 e bounds.\n
