In this paper, we consider the hypothesis testing of correlation between two $m$-uniform hypergraphs on $n$ unlabelled nodes. Under the null hypothesis, the hypergraphs are independent, while under the alternative hypothesis, the hyperdges…

Given low order moment information over the random variables $\mathbf{X} = (X_1,X_2,\ldots,X_p)$ and $Y$, what distribution minimizes the Hirschfeld-Gebelein-R\'{e}nyi (HGR) maximal correlation coefficient between $\mathbf{X}$ and $Y$,…

We develop a new method for bounding the relative entropy of a random vector in terms of its Stein factors. Our approach is based on a novel representation for the score function of smoothly perturbed random variables, as well as on the de…

In a system of interacting fermions, the correlation energy is defined as the difference between the energy of the ground state and the one of the free Fermi gas. We consider $N$ interacting spin $1/2$ fermions in the dilute regime, i.e.,…

We calculate the entanglement entropy of a non-contiguous subsystem of a chain of free fermions. The starting point is a formula suggested by Jin and Korepin, \texttt{arXiv:1104.1004}, for the reduced density of states of two disjoint…

We propose and experimentally measure an entropy that quantifies the volume of correlations among qubits. The experiment is carried out on a nearly isolated quantum system composed of a central spin coupled and initially uncorrelated with…
