Opposite amplitude phase entropy responses at a non Hermitian avoided crossing

Avoided crossings (A.C.) in open resonators arise from non-Hermitian mode interaction, where leakage produces complex spectra and biorthogonal eigenmodes. Intensity-based entropies are robust markers of mode mixing but discard the phase structure of the complex field. Here we introduce a field-level information-theoretic analysis based on the joint statistics of local amplitude and phase under Born-weighted sampling on the cavity grid. For an open elliptical microcavity in the strong-interaction A.C. regime, we find a distinctive sector-resolved response: amplitude statistics tighten while phase statistics broaden maximally at the mixing point, and conditioning reveals strong amplitude-phase dependence. By introducing a coarse position label and the associated co-information, we further show that the enhancement of global amplitude-phase coupling is strongly shaped by spatial heterogeneity across the cavity.
