Compared to the entrywise transforms which preserve positive semidefiniteness, those leaving invariant the inertia of symmetric matrices reveal a surprising rigidity. We first obtain the classification of negativity preservers by combining…

The Renyi entropies constitute a family of information measures that generalizes the well-known Shannon entropy, inheriting many of its properties. They appear in the form of unconditional and conditional entropies, relative entropies or…

We introduce the notion of reduced relative quantum entropy and prove that it is convex. This result is then used to give a simplified proof of a theorem of Lieb and Seiringer.

The specific relative entropy, introduced by N. Gantert, allows to quantify the discrepancy between the laws of potentially mutually singular measures. It appears naturally as the large deviations rate function in a randomized version of…

Many axiomatic definitions of entropy, such as the R\'enyi entropy, of a random variable are closely related to the $\ell_{\alpha}$-norm of its probability distribution. This study considers probability distributions on finite sets, and…

We prove a tight uniform continuity bound for Arimoto's version of the conditional $\alpha$-R\'enyi entropy, for the range $\alpha \in [0, 1)$. This definition of the conditional R\'enyi entropy is the most natural one among the multiple…

In this paper, we explore the concept of pseudo R\'enyi entropy within the context of quantum field theories (QFTs). The transition matrix is constructed by applying operators situated in different regions to the vacuum state. Specifically,…

Rindler positivity is a property that holds in any relativistic Quantum Field Theory and implies an infinite set of inequalities involving the exponential of the R\'enyi mutual information $I_n(A_i,\bar{A}_j)$ between $A_i$ and $\bar{A}_j$,…

The R\'enyi and Shannon entropies are information-theoretic measures which have enabled to formulate the position-momentum uncertainty principle in a much more adequate and stringent way than the (variance-based) Heisenberg-like relation.…

We prove that the M\"obius disjointness conjecture holds for graph maps and for all monotone local dendrite maps. We further show that this also hold for continuous map on certain class of dendrites. Moreover, we see that there is a…

The ground state entanglement entropy is studied in a many-body bipartite quantum system with either a single or multiple conserved quantities. It is shown that the entanglement entropy exhibits a universal power-law behaviour at large $R$…

We study maximum-entropy inference for finite-dimensional quantum states under linear moment constraints. Given expectation values of finitely many observables, the feasible set of states is convex but typically non-unique. The…

Let $G$ be a countable infinite discrete amenable group.It should be noted that a $G$-system $(X,G)$ naturally induces a $G$-system $(\mathcal{M}(X),G)$, where $\mathcal{M}(X)$ denotes the space of Borel probability measures on the compact…

This paper is devoted to problems stated by Z. Zhou and F. Li in 2009. They concern relations between almost periodic, weakly almost periodic, and quasi-weakly almost periodic points of a continuous map f and its topological entropy. The…

It is common to assess the "memory strength" of a stationary process looking at how fast the normalized log-determinant of its covariance submatrices (i.e., entropy rate) decreases. In this work, we propose an alternative characterization…

We demonstrate that being a hyperbolicity preserver does not imply monotonicity for infinite order differential operators on $\mathbb{R}[x]$, thereby settling a recent conjecture in the negative. We also give some sufficient conditions for…
