Using information theoretic quantities like the Wehrl entropy and Fisher's information measure we study the thermodynamics of the problem leading to Landau's diamagnetism, namely, a free spinless electron in a uniform magnetic field. It is…

Fisher developed his geometric model to support the micro-mutationalism hypothesis which claims that small mutations are more likely to be beneficial and therefore to contribute to evolution and adaptation. While others have provided a…

A non-isolated physical system typically loses information to its environment, and when such loss is irreversible the evolution is said to be Markovian. Non-Markovian effects are studied by monitoring how information quantifiers, such as…
