Coherence and quantum correlations measure sensitivity to dephasing channels

We introduce measures of quantum coherence as the speed of evolution of a system under decoherence. That is, coherence is the ability to estimate a dephasing channel, quantified by the quantum Fisher information. We extend the analysis to interferometric noise estimation, proving that quantum discord is the minimum sensitivity to local dephasing. A physically motivated set of free operations for discord is proposed. The amount of discord created by strictly incoherent operations is upper-bounded by the initial coherence.

Metrological measures of non-classical correlations

Non-classical correlations denote the ways in which quantum systems can be correlated beyond what is possible in classical physics. They include but are not limited to entanglement: non-entangled states can also exhibit forms of non-classical correlations. We here review the literature on metrological measures of non-classical correlations and show how they relate to increased probe sensitivity in quantum metrology protocols such as interferometric parameter estimation and state discrimination.
