Abstract

In this paper we introduce the concept of quadratic quantum $f$-divergence measure for a continuos function $f$ defined on the positive semi-axis of real numbers, the invertible matrix $T$ and matrix $V$ by $$\mathcal{S}_{f}\left( V,T\right) :=\mathrm{tr}\left[ \left\vert T^{\ast }\right\vert ^{2}f\left( \left\vert VT^{-1}\right\vert ^{2}\right) \right].$$ Some fundamental inequalities for this quantum $f$-divergence in the case of convex functions are established. Applications for particular quantum divergence measures of interest are also provided.
