Multiobject operational tasks for measurement incompatibility

We introduce multiobject operational tasks for measurement incompatibility in the form of multiobject quantum subchannel discrimination and exclusion games with prior information, where a player can simultaneously harness the resources contained within both a quantum state and a set of measurements....

description We introduce multiobject operational tasks for measurement incompatibility in the form of multiobject quantum subchannel discrimination and exclusion games with prior information, where a player can simultaneously harness the resources contained within both a quantum state and a set of measurements. We show that any fully or partially resourceful pair of objects is useful for a suitably chosen multiobject subchannel discrimination and exclusion game with prior information. The advantage provided by a fully or partially resourceful object against all possible fully free objects in such a game can be quantified in a multiplicative manner by the resource quantifiers of generalized robustness and the weight of a resource for discrimination and exclusion games, respectively. These results hold for arbitrary properties of quantum states as well as for arbitrary properties of sets of measurements closed under classical pre- and postprocessing and, consequently, include measurement incompatibility as a particular case. We furthermore show that these results are not exclusive to quantum theory, but can also be extended to the realm of general probabilistic theories.
