We extend algorithmic information theory to quantum mechanics, taking a universal semicomputable density matrix (``universal probability'') as a starting point, and define complexity (an operator) as its negative logarithm. A number of…

The goal of the present paper is to derive some conditions on saturation of (strong) subadditivity inequality for the stochastic matrices. The notion of relative entropy of stochastic matrices is introduced by mimicking quantum relative…

Given a convex representation $\rho:\Gamma\to\textrm{PGL}(d,\mathbb{R})$ of a convex co-compact group $\Gamma$ of $\mathbb{H}^k$ we find upper bounds for the quantity $\alpha h_\rho,$ where $h_\rho$ is the entropy of $\rho$ and $\alpha$ is…

We show that there is equality in Shannon's Entropy Power Inequality (EPI) if and only if the random variables involved are Gaussian, assuming nothing beyond the existence of differential entropies. This is done by justifying de Bruijn's…

In the present paper we prove a family of tight upper and lower bounds for the Shannon entropy and von Neumann entropy based on the p-norms. This allows us to have an entropy estimate, a criterion for the finiteness of it and a bound on the…
