Abstract

The R{\'e}nyi entropy is one of the important information measures that generalizes Shannon's entropy. The quantum R{\'e}nyi entropy has a fundamental role in quantum information theory, therefore, bounding this quantity is of vital importance. Another important quantity is R{\'e}nyi relative entropy on which R{\'e}nyi generalization of the conditional entropy, and mutual information are defined based. Thus, finding lower bound for R{\'e}nyi relative entropy is our goal in this paper. We use matrix inequalities to prove new bounds on the entropy of type β\beta, R{\'e}nyi entropy.
