The tomographic picture of quantum mechanics has brought the description of quantum states closer to that of classical probability and statistics. On the other hand, the geometrical formulation of quantum mechanics introduces a metric…

We present a method to generate probability distributions that correspond to metrics obeying partial differential equations generated by extremizing a functional $J[g^{\mu\nu}(\theta^i)]$, where $g^{\mu\nu}(\theta^i)$ is the Fisher metric.…

A metric space (X,d) is monotone if there is a linear order < on X and a constant c>0 such that d(x,y) < c d(x,z) for all x<y<z in X. Properties of continuous functions with monotone graph (considered as a planar set) are investigated. It…
