Geometric measure of mixing of quantum state

We define the geometric measure of mixing of quantum state as a minimal Hilbert-Schmidt distance between the mixed state and a set of pure states. An explicit expression for the geometric measure is obtained. It is interesting that this expression corresponds to the squared Euclidian distance betwee...
