We discuss information-theoretic concepts on infinite-dimensional quantum systems. In particular, we lift the smooth entropy formalism as introduced by Renner and collaborators for finite-dimensional systems to von Neumann algebras. For the…

A direct connection of information entropy $S$ and kinetic energy $T$ is obtained for nuclei and atomic clusters, which establishes $T$ as a measure of the information in a distribution. It is conjectured that this is a universal property…

Two new relative entropy quantities, called the min- and max-relative entropies, are introduced and their properties are investigated. The well-known min- and max- entropies, introduced by Renner, are obtained from these. We define a new…

We study the von Neumann entropy of the partial trace of a system of two two-level atoms (qubits) in a dispersive cavity where the atoms are interacting collectively with a single mode electromagnetic field in the cavity. We make a contrast…

We investigate the computational hardness of estimating the quantum $\alpha$-R\'enyi entropy ${\rm S}^{\tt R}_{\alpha}(\rho) = \frac{\ln {\rm Tr}(\rho^\alpha)}{1-\alpha}$ and the quantum $q$-Tsallis entropy ${\rm S}^{\tt T}_q(\rho) =…

Recent proposals of measuring bipartite Renyi entropy experimentally involve techniques that hold exactly for non-interacting quantum particles. Here we consider the difference between such measurements and the actual Renyi entropy for…

We consider the problem of approximating the empirical Shannon entropy of a high-frequency data stream under the relaxed strict-turnstile model, when space limitations make exact computation infeasible. An equivalent measure of entropy is…

Counting problems such as determining how many bit strings satisfy a given Boolean logic formula are notoriously hard. In many cases, even getting an approximate count is difficult. Here we propose that entanglement, a common concept in…

The scaling of entanglement with subsystem size encodes key information about phases and criticality, but the von Neumann entropy is costly to access in experiments and simulations, often requiring full state tomography. The second R\'enyi…
