Abstract :
Recently a new quantum generalization of the Rényi divergence and the corresponding conditional Rényi entropies was proposed. Here we report on a surprising relation between conditional Rényi entropies based on this new generalization and conditional Rényi entropies based on the quantum relative Rényi entropy that was used in previous literature. This generalizes the well-known duality relation H(A|B)+H(A|C) = 0 for tripartite pure states to Rényi entropies of two different kinds. As a direct application, we prove a collection of inequalities that relate different conditional Rényi entropies.
