We describe society as a nonequilibrium probabilistic system: N individuals occupy W resource states in it and produce entropy S over definite time periods. Resulting thermodynamics is however unusual because a second entropy, H, measures a…

By a Cantor-like measure we mean the unique self-similar probability measure $\mu $ satisfying $\mu =\sum_{i=0}^{m-1}p_{i}\mu \circ S_{i}^{-1}$ where $% S_{i}(x)=\frac{x}{d}+\frac{i}{d}\cdot \frac{d-1}{m-1}$ for integers $2\leq d<m\le 2d-1$…

A new entanglement measure, the multiple entropy measures (MEMS), is proposed to quantify quantum entanglement of multi-partite quantum state. The MEMS is vector-like with $m=[N/2]$, the integer part of $N/2$, components: $[S_1, S_2,...,…

We give a bound to the precision in the estimation of a parameter in terms of the expectation value of an observable. It is an extension of the Cramer-Rao inequality and of the Heisenberg uncertainty relation, where the estimation precision…

Based on the theory of quantum mechanics, intrinsic randomness in measurement distinguishes quantum effects from classical ones. From the perspective of states, this quantum feature can be summarized as coherence or superposition in a…

Quantum states may exhibit asymmetry with respect to the action of a given group. Such an asymmetry of states can be considered as a resource in applications such as quantum metrology, and it is a concept that encompasses quantum coherence…

We prove that given the ability to make entangled measurements on at most $k$ replicas of an $n$-qubit state $\rho$ simultaneously, there is a property of $\rho$ which requires at least order $2^n$ measurements to learn. However, the same…

In quantum mechanics, we define the measuring system $M$ in a selective measurement by two conditions. Firstly, when we define the measured system $S$ as the system in which the non-selective measurement part acts, $M$ is independent from…
