Quantum Information and Entropy

Subhash Kak
2007 International Journal of Theoretical Physics  
In view of this, we propose a new measure for the informational entropy of a quantum state that includes information in the pure states and the thermodynamic entropy.  ...  Thermodynamic entropy is not an entirely satisfactory measure of information of a quantum state.  ...  We propose a measure for informational entropy and show that it may be seen as the sum of information in the pure states and the thermodynamic entropy.  ...

Entanglement, quantum entropy and mutual information

V. P. Belavkin, M. Ohya
2002 Proceedings of the Royal Society A  
The relative entropy of the d-compound and entangled states leads to two different types of entropy for a given quantum state: the von Neumann entropy, which is achieved as the maximum of mutual information  ...  The d- and q- information of a quantum noisy channel are respectively defined via the input d- and q- encodings, and the q-capacity of a quantum noiseless channel is found as the logarithm of the dimensionality  ...  We also discuss the informational degree of entanglement and entangled quantum mutual entropy and quantum capacity.  ...

Negative Entropy and Information in Quantum Mechanics

N. J. Cerf, C. Adami
1997 Physical Review Letters  
A framework for a quantum mechanical information theory is introduced that is based entirely on density operators, and gives rise to a unified description of classical correlation and quantum entanglement  ...  Unlike in classical (Shannon) information theory, quantum (von Neumann) conditional entropies can be negative when considering quantum entangled systems, a fact related to quantum non-separability.  ...  The mutual entropy corresponds to the information gained about A by measuring B. It is symmetric, i.e., H͑A:B͒ H͑B:A͒, and can be viewed as the amount of entropy shared by A and B.  ...

We compare the thermodynamic entropy of a quantum Brownian oscillator derived from the partition function of the subsystem with the von Neumann entropy of its reduced density matrix.  ...  We give an explanation for these findings and point out that these deviations become important in cases where statements about the information capacity of the subsystem are associated with thermodynamic  ...  In quantum information theory it is a commonly used measure of entanglement and decoherence [7] and can be understood as a measure of the amount of information gained by a unique quantum measurement  ...

Smooth Entropies and the Quantum Information Spectrum

Nilanjana Datta, Renato Renner
2009 IEEE Transactions on Information Theory  
To overcome this limitation, two different techniques, the information spectrum method and the smooth entropy framework, have been developed independently.  ...  More precisely, the spectral entropy rate can be seen as the asymptotic limit of the smooth entropy. Our results apply to the quantum setting and thus include the classical setting as a special case.  ...  In the quantum regime, spectral entropy rates have mostly been used to characterize information sources, communication channels and entanglement manipulations.  ...
