The mathematical structure of resource theories

Tobias Fritz

Resources and the problem of their efficient use form an essential part of engineering and sometimes even of everyday life. I will introduce a mathematical toolbox for dealing with problems of this form, and sketch some applications to information theory and graph theory. Given enough time and interest, I can explain the difficulties that one faces when trying to extend this framework to approximate resource conversions, as they are commonly considered in information theory.
