We calculate Shannon information entropy of trapped interacting bosons in both the position and momentum spaces, $S_r$ and $S_k$ respectively. The total entropy maintains the fuctional form $S=a + b \ln N$ for repulsive bosons. At the…

Shannon entropy is not the only entropy that is relevant to machine-learning datasets, nor possibly even the most important one. Traditional entropies such as Shannon entropy capture information represented by elements' frequencies but not…

We show that if one uses the invariant form of the Boltzmann-Shannon continuous entropy, it is possible to obtain the generalized Pareto-Tsallis density function, using an appropriate "prior" measure m_{q}(x) and a "Boltzman constraint"…
