Quantum generalizations of R\'enyi's entropies are a useful tool to describe a variety of operational tasks in quantum information processing. Two families of such generalizations turn out to be particularly useful: the Petz quantum R\'enyi…

We propose an extension of the sandwiched R\'enyi relative $\alpha$-entropy to normal positive functionals on arbitrary von Neumann algebras, for the values $\alpha>1$. For this, we use Kosaki's definition of noncommutative $L_p$-spaces…
We show that for any $k$-times continuously differentiable function $f:[a,\infty)\longrightarrow{\mathbb R}$, any integer $q\ge 0$ and any $\alpha>1$ the inequality $$\liminf_{x\to\infty} \frac{x^k \cdot\log x\cdot \log_2 x\cdot\dots\cdot…
The concept of classical $f$-divergences gives a unified framework to construct and study measures of dissimilarity of probability distributions; special cases include the relative entropy and the R\'enyi divergences. Various quantum…
Using a sharp version of the reverse Young inequality, and a R\'enyi entropy comparison result due to Fradelizi, Madiman, and Wang, the authors are able to derive R\'enyi entropy power inequalities for log-concave random vectors when…
Fundamental properties for the Tsallis relative entropy in both classical and quantum systems are studied. As one of our main results, we give the parametric extension of the trace inequality between the quantum relative entropy and the…
For a subshift $(X, \sigma_X)$ and a subadditive sequence $\mathcal{F}=\{\log f_n\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ on $X$, we study equivalent conditions for the existence of $h\in C(X)$ such that $\lim_{n\rightarrow\infty}(1/{n})\int \log f_n d \mu=\int…

We examine a number of known inequalities for $L^p$ functions with reverse representations for $s<1$ with complex matrices under the $p$-norms $||X||_p=\text{Tr}[(X^\ast X)^{p/2}]^{1/p}$, and similarly defined quasinorm or antinorm…
We study the behavior of the smallest possible constants $d(a,b)$ and $d_n$ in Hardy inequalities $$ \int_a^b\left(\frac{1}{x}\int_a^xf(t)dt\right)^p\,dx\leq d(a,b)\,\int_a^b [f(x)]^p dx $$ and $$…
We show that the new quantum extension of Renyi's \alpha-relative entropies, introduced recently by Muller-Lennert, Dupuis, Szehr, Fehr and Tomamichel, J. Math. Phys. 54, 122203, (2013), and Wilde, Winter, Yang, Commun. Math. Phys. 331,…
For $\alpha,z>0$ with $\alpha\ne1$, motivated by comparison between different kinds of R\'enyi divergences in quantum information, we consider log-majorization between the matrix functions \begin{align*}…
We prove new entropy inequalities for log concave and s-concave functions that strengthen and generalize recently established reverse log Sobolev and Poincare inequalities for such functions. This leads naturally to the concept of…
We present a logarithmic Sobolev inequality adapted to a log-concave measure. Assume that $\Phi$ is a symmetric convex function on $\dR$ satisfying $(1+\e)\Phi(x)\leq {x}\Phi'(x)\leq(2-\e)\Phi(x)$ for $x\geq0$ large enough and with…

It has been shown that the $\alpha-z$ R{\'e}nyi relative entropy satisfies the Data Processing Inequality (DPI) for a certain range of $\alpha$'s and $z$'s. Moreover, the range is completely characterized by Zhang in `20. We prove necessary…
