Unifying Typical Entanglement and Coin Tossing: on Randomization in Probabilistic Theories

It is well-known that pure quantum states are typically almost maximally entangled, and thus have close to maximally mixed subsystems. We consider whether this is true for probabilistic theories more generally, and not just for quantum theory. We derive a formula for the expected purity of a subsyst...
