R\'enyi divergence is related to R\'enyi entropy much like Kullback-Leibler divergence is related to Shannon's entropy, and comes up in many settings. It was introduced by R\'enyi as a measure of information that satisfies almost the same…
We obtain formulas for Petz-R\'enyi and Umegaki relative entropy from the idea of distribution of a positive selfadjoint operator. Classical results on R\'enyi and Kullback-Leibler divergences are applied to obtain new results and new…
We study the fundamental properties of the quantum f-relative entropy, where f(.) is an operator convex function. We give the equality conditions under monotonicity and joint convexity, and these conditions are more general than, since they…

We consider optimal scalar quantization with $r$th power distortion and constrained R\'enyi entropy of order $\alpha$. For sources with an absolutely continuous distribution the high rate asymptotics of the quantizer distortion has long…
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)…
Quantum f-divergences are a quantum generalization of the classical notion of f-divergences, and are a special case of Petz' quasi-entropies. Many well known distinguishability measures of quantum states are given by, or derived from,…
We give a simple proof of the uncertainty principle with quantum side information, as in [Berta et al. Nature Physics 6, 659 (2010)], invoking the monotonicity of the relative entropy. Our proof shows that the entropic uncertainty principle…
We explore a large class of correlation measures called the $\alpha-z$ R\'enyi mutual informations (RMIs). Unlike the commonly used notion of RMI involving linear combinations of R\'enyi entropies, the $\alpha-z$ RMIs are positive…
We develop a rigorous framework for quantifying quantum coherence in finite-dimensional systems by applying the Schur-Horn majorization theorem to relate eigenvalue distributions and diagonal entries of density matrices. Building on this…
Our capacity to process information depends on the computational power at our disposal. Information theory captures our ability to distinguish states or communicate messages when it is unconstrained with unrivaled beauty and elegance. For…
A quantum model can be mapped to a classical model in one higher dimension. Here we introduce a finite-temperature correlation measure based on a reduced density matrix rho_A obtained by cutting the classical system along the imaginary time…
We provide the sandwiched R\'enyi divergence of order $\alpha\in(\frac{1}{2},1)$, as well as its induced quantum information quantities, with an operational interpretation in the characterization of the exact strong converse exponents of…

This paper studies a specific class of statistical divergences for spectral densities of time series: the spectral $\alpha$-R\'{e}nyi divergences, which include the Itakura-Saito divergence as a limiting case. The aim of this paper is to…
A foundational challenge in uncertainty quantification involves estimating a probability measure on the space of uncertain parameters such that its push-forward through a computational model matches an observed probability measure on the…

We study the formulation of the uncertainty principle in quantum mechanics in terms of entropic inequalities, extending results recently derived by Bialynicki-Birula [1] and Zozor et al. [2]. Those inequalities can be considered as…
We show that under convergence in measure of probability density functions, differential entropy converges whenever the entropy integrands $f_n |\log f_n|$ are uniformly integrable and tight -- a direct consequence of Vitali's convergence…
