Abstract
Quantum state discrimination is a fundamental task that is meaningful in quantum information theory. In this manuscript, we consider an extended unambiguous discrimination of quantum resources. First, we present an upper bound of the success probability for an extended unambiguous discrimination task in the non-asymptotic and asymptotic scenarios. Next, we generalize the task from quantum states to quantum channels. We present an upper bound of the success probability for the task under the adaptive strategy. Furthermore, we show the bound can be computed efficiently. Finally, compared with the classical generalized unambiguous discrimination, we show the advantage of the quantum with the aid of a quantifier based on a set of semi-definite positive operators.Keywords
