Researchers Lukas Schmitt, Filippo Girardi, and Laura Burri introduced tumula information, a novel quantum correlation measure defined as the minimum relative entropy between any product state and a fixed bipartite quantum state. The team also proposed the doubly minimized Petz Rényi lautum information (PRLI), a generalized version of tumula information using Rényi divergence, extending its applicability in quantum information theory. The study links tumula information to hypothesis testing, showing it determines the Sanov exponent—a key metric in quantum state discrimination problems under asymmetric error constraints. For binary quantum state discrimination, the reverse direct exponent is quantified by PRLI for orders α ∈ (0, 1/2), offering new tools for analyzing quantum communication protocols. The work extends tumula information to quantum channels, comparing it with prior channel umlaut information results, bridging gaps between state-based and channel-based correlation measures.

In addition, we introduce the corresponding Petz Renyi version, which we call the doubly minimized Petz Renyi lautum information (PRLI). We derive several general properties of these correlation measures and provide an operational interpretation in the context of hypothesis testing. Specifically, we show that the reverse direct exponent of certain binary quantum state discrimination problems is quantified by the doubly minimized PRLI of order $\alpha\in (0,1/2)$, and that the Sanov exponent is determined by the tumula information. Furthermore, we investigate the extension of the tumula information to channels and compare its properties with previous results on the channel umlaut information [Girardi et al., arXiv:2503.21479].
