In this work the connection established in [7, 8] between a model of two linked polymers rings with fixed Gaussian linking number forming a 4-plat and the statistical mechanics of non-relativistic anyon particles is explored. The excluded…

The role of symmetries in what concerns entanglement entropy has been extensively explored in the last years and revealed a profound connection with the quantum field theory's algebraic structure. Recently, it was found that some universal…

Let $S(\rho)=- Tr (\rho \log\rho)$ be the von Neumann entropy of an $N$-dimensional quantum state $\rho$ and $e_2(\rho)$ the second elementary symmetric polynomial of the eigenvalues of $\rho$. We prove the inequality $S(\rho) \le c(N)…

Black hole thermodynamics suggests that the maximum entropy that can be contained in a region of space is proportional to the area enclosing it rather than its volume. I argue that this follows naturally from loop quantum gravity and a…

We reaffirm the claim of Lee et al. [preceding Comment, Phys. Rev. A 108, 066401 (2023)] that the expression of quantum dual total correlation of a multipartite system in terms of quantum relative entropy as proposed in previous work [A.…

We introduce the concept of entropic nonsignaling correlations, i.e., entropies arising from probabilistic theories that are compatible with the fact that we cannot transmit information instantaneously. We characterize and show the…

The geometric entanglement entropy of a quantum field in the vacuum state is known to be divergent and, when regularized, to scale as the area of the boundary of the region. Here we introduce an operational definition of the entropy of the…

Entropy always increases monotonically in a closed system but complexity increases at first and then decreases as equilibrium is approached. Commonsense information-related definitions for entropy and complexity demonstrate that complexity…

We investigate the asymptotic behavior of entropy polymatroids associated with algebraic matroids over finite fields. Given an algebraic matroid ${\sf M}:=(\mathcal{E},r)$ and the irreducible variety $V$ associated with ${\sf M}$, we…

The challenge of equality in the strong subadditivity inequality of entropy is approached via a general additivity of correlation information in terms of nonoverlapping clusters of subsystems in multipartite states (density operators). A…

The von Neumann entropy and the subentropy of a mixed quantum state are upper and lower bounds, respectively, on the accessible information of any ensemble consistent with the given mixed state. Here we define and investigate a set of…

Rooted trees with probabilities are used to analyze properties of a variable length code. A bound is derived on the difference between the entropy rates of the code and a memoryless source. The bound is in terms of normalized informational…

In Strominger's proposal for the computation of the statistical entropy of black holes based on the asymptotic symmetry analysis of Brown and Henneaux a fundamental role is played by the asymptotic conditions that the considered metric must…

We prove that there is no algorithm to decide whether a given integer vector is in the closure of the entropic cone $\overline{\Gamma_{n}^{*}}$. Equivalently, there is no decision procedure to determine whether a given integer-valued…

Bousso's entropy bound is a conjecture that the entropy through a null hypersurface emanating from a two-dimensional surface with a nonpositive expansion is bounded by the area of that two-dimensional surface. We investigate the validity of…
