Landauer's principle sets fundamental thermodynamical constraints for classical and quantum information processing, thus affecting not only various branches of physics, but also of computer science and engineering. Despite its importance,…

The positivity conditions of the relative entropy between two thermal equilibrium states $\hat{\rho}_1$ and $\hat{\rho}_2$ are used to obtain upper and lower bounds for the subtraction of their entropies, the Helmholtz potential and the…

Here I investigate some mathematical aspects of the maximum entropy theory of ecology (METE). In particular I address the geometrical structure of METE endowed by information geometry. As novel results, the macrostate entropy is calculated…

In this effort we show that the Legendre reciprocity relations,thermodynamic's essential formal feature, are respected by any entropic functional, even if it is NOT of trace-form nature, as Shannon's is. Further, with reference to the…

The Boltzmann entropy $S^{(B)}$ is true in the case of equal probability of all microstates of a system. In the opposite case it should be averaged over all microstates that gives rise to the Boltzmann--Shannon entropy (BSE). Maximum…
