An extension of the entropy power inequality to the form $N_r^\alpha(X+Y) \geq N_r^\alpha(X) + N_r^\alpha(Y)$ with arbitrary independent summands $X$ and $Y$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is obtained for the R\'enyi entropy and powers $\alpha \geq…

Quantum physics, despite its observables being intrinsically of a probabilistic nature, does not have a quantum entropy assigned to them. We propose a quantum entropy that quantify the randomness of a pure quantum state via a conjugate pair…
