A characterization of von Neumann entropy using functors

Kenji Nakahira

Baez, Fritz, and Leinster derived a method for characterizing Shannon entropy in classical systems. In this method, they considered a functor from a certain category to the monoid of non-negative real numbers with addition as a map from measure-preserving functions to non-negative real numbers, and derived Shannon entropy by imposing several simple conditions. We propose a method for characterizing von Neumann entropy by extending their results to quantum systems.

Time evolution of the von Neumann entropy in open quantum system

Kohei Kobayashi

Control of open quantum dynamics is of great interest for realizing quantum technologies. Therefore, it is an important task to quantify and characterize the entropy for open quantum systems under decoherence. In this paper, we study the time evolution of the von Neumann entropy for open quantum systems described by the Lindblad master equation. Note that, in particular, when the decoherence corresponds to the measurement for the observable in the system, the von Neumann entropy tends to monotonically increases as the variance becomes larger. Furthermore, we present a lower bound of the von Neumann entropy in the long-time limit. This lower bound has advantages of being straightforwardly calculated and applicable to a general Markovian open quantum system.
