Under the scenario of generalized measurements, it can be questioned how much of quantum uncertainty can be attributed to measuring device, independent of the uncertainty in the measured system. On the course to answer the question, we…

We show that a proper expression of the uncertainty relation for a pair of canonically-conjugate continuous variables relies on entropy power, a standard notion in Shannon information theory for real-valued signals. The resulting…

It is well-known that the Shannon entropies of some parameterized probability distributions are concave functions with respect to the parameter. In this paper we consider a family of such distributions (including the binomial, Poisson, and…

To know the statistical distribution of a variable is an important problem in management of resources. Distributions of the power law type are observed in many real systems. However power law distributions have an infinite variance and thus…

When at equilibrium, large-scale systems obey conventional thermodynamics because they belong to microscopic configurations (or states) that are typical. Crucially, the typical states usually represent only a small fraction of the total…

Though Shannon entropy of a probability measure $P$, defined as $- \int_{X} \frac{\ud P}{\ud \mu} \ln \frac{\ud P}{\ud\mu} \ud \mu$ on a measure space $(X, \mathfrak{M},\mu)$, does not qualify itself as an information measure (it is not a…

In the nonextensive Tsallis scenario, Page's conjecture for the average entropy of a subsystem[Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 71}, 1291(1993)] as well as its demonstration are generalized, i.e., when a pure quantum system, whose Hilbert space…
