A version of the Uncertainty Principle says: There does not exist a non zero function in $L_p(\mathbb{R}^d)$ if its Fourier transform is supported by a set of finite $\alpha$-Hausdorff measure with $\alpha<2d/p$. This UP does not hold at…

Information entropies provide powerful and flexible way to express restrictions imposed by the uncertainty principle. This approach seems to be very suitable in application to problems of quantum information theory. It is typical that…

A well-known version of the uncertainty principle on the cyclic group $\mathbb{Z}_N$ states that for any couple of functions $f,g\in\ell^2(\mathbb{Z}_N)\setminus\{0\}$, the short-time Fourier transform $V_g f$ has support of cardinality at…

We study convexity properties of R\'{e}nyi entropy as function of $\alpha>0$ on finite alphabets. We also describe robustness of the R\'{e}nyi entropy on finite alphabets, and it turns out that the rate of respective convergence depends on…

The Hausdorff-Young inequality for Euclidean space, in its sharp form due to Beckner, gives an upper bound for the Fourier transform in terms of Lebesgue space norms, with an optimal constant. The extremizers have been identified by Lieb to…

This paper studies the complexity of estimating Renyi divergences of discrete distributions: $p$ observed from samples and the baseline distribution $q$ known \emph{a priori}. Extending the results of Acharya et al. (SODA'15) on estimating…

The Fourier transform is naturally defined for integrable functrions. Otherwise, it should be stipulated in which sense the Fourier transform is understood. We consider some class of radial and, generally saying, nonintegrable functions.…

Estimating quantum entropies and divergences is an important problem in quantum physics, information theory, and machine learning. Quantum neural estimators (QNEs), which utilize a hybrid classical-quantum architecture, have recently…

The exact range of the joined values of several R\'{e}nyi entropies is determined. The method is based on topology with special emphasis on the orientation of the objects studied. Like in the case when only two orders of R\'{e}nyi entropies…
