Quantum Maximal Correlation Coefficients
Year: 2026
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: We introduce families of quantum generalizations of the maximal correlation coefficient defined via quantum L2-measure spaces. We show these coefficients subsume previously proposed operationally relevant definitions of the quantum maximal correlation coefficient and satisfy key properties of the classical maximal correlation coefficient such as data processing. Building on work by Beigi, we further demonstrate that a broad class of these coefficients characterize fundamental limits on quantum state conversion and extraction of classical correlations under local operations.
