摘要

We revisit the discussion of the quantum resources required to perform optimal unambiguous discrimination between two nonorthogonal quantum states when the protocol is assisted by an auxiliary system (ancilla). Initially, the formulation of the problem led to the assumption that entanglement between the main system and the ancilla was the key resource for the task. However, it was later shown that entanglement is not necessary at all, while quantum dissonance may or may not be required, depending on the relationship between the overlap and the a priori probabilities of the inputs [Zhang, Sci. Rep. 3, 2134 (2013)]. Here, we show that, regardless of this relationship, coherence and purity are required resources for the task and thus more fundamental than dissonance. Coherence is analyzed based on its generalized resource theory, which allowed us to find the scenario that generates the maximal cryptographic randomness gain in the protocol. Purity, on the other hand, is shown to be greater than coherence when both measures are defined via the same distance, including the extreme cases of orthogonal and parallel states, where the latter is zero. Therefore, we conclude that purity is the most fundamental resource for assisted optimal state discrimination.
