Abstract

Uncertainty relations emerging from the Tsallis entropy are derived and discussed. In particular we found a positively defined function that saturates the so-called entropic inequalities for entropies characterizing the physical states under consideration.

Entropic uncertainty relations and entanglement

Otfried Gühne, Maciej Lewenstein

We discuss the relationship between entropic uncertainty relations and entanglement. We present two methods for deriving separability criteria in terms of entropic uncertainty relations. In particular, we show how any entropic uncertainty relation on one part of the system results in a separability condition on the composite system. We investigate the resulting criteria using the Tsallis entropy for two and three qubits.

Comment on “Uncertainty relations in terms of the Tsallis entropy”

Iwo Białynicki‐Birula, Łukasz Rudnicki

We prove that the inequality used recently by Wilk and W\l{}odarczyk [Phys. Rev. A 79, 062108 (2009)] to find a better lower bound in the uncertainty relations for the R\'enyi entropies is invalid. Thus, the problem of improving the bound given in our article [Phys. Rev. A 74, 052101 (2006)] remains unsolved.

Uncertainty relations in terms of generalized entropies derived from information diagrams

Alexey E. Rastegin

Abstract Entropic uncertainty relations are studied from the conceptual viewpoint and in the context of various applications. Providing as tight inequalities as possible is thus an important issue. Measurements of special types are indispensable in quantum information science. Their structure allows us to estimate the index of coincidence. Uncertainty relations follow an estimation of entropies at the given index of coincidence. Relations of such a kind are a known issue in information theory. It concerns links between different information measures. Information diagrams are a tool to study relations between two utilized characteristics. A search for improved inequalities uses the index of coincidence as the abscissa and the entropy of interest as the ordinate. This approach before dealt with standard information functions assigned to the Shannon entropy. But generalized entropies often reveal new links between information measures. This paper applies the method of information diagrams to the Rényi and Tsallis entropies. Such entropies and related information functions have found use in quantum information theory. Improved estimates of the Tsallis and Rényi entropies at the given index of coincidence are obtained. Hence, new entropic uncertainty relations for specific types of measurements follow. They include mutually unbiased bases, symmetric informationally complete measurements, and equiangular tight frames.

We axiomatically characterize the Tsallis entropy of a finite quantum system. In addition, we derive a continuity property of Tsallis entropy. This gives a generalization of the Fannes inequality.

Generalized Entropic Uncertainty Relations with Tsallis' Entropy

M. Portesi, Angelo Plastino

A generalization of the entropic formulation of the Uncertainty Principle of Quantum Mechanics is considered with the introduction of the q-entropies recently proposed by Tsallis. The concomitant generalized measure is illustrated for the case of phase and number operators in quantum optics. Interesting results are obtained when making use of q-entropies as the basis for constructing generalized entropic uncertainty measures.
