Abstract
There has been an interest in studies on informationtheoretic and complexity measures for quantum model systems in the recent years. The information entropy for the trigonometric Rosen-Morse potential, harmonic oscillator, hydrogenic atoms, Morse potential, Yukawa and Hulthen potentials have been investigated. The Kratzer potential plays an important role in atomic and molecular physics and quantum chemistry. Cheng and Dai proposed a new potential consisting of the modified Kratzer potential plus a new proposed ring-shaped potential which has possible applications to ring-shaped organic molecules like cyclic polyenes and benzene. In this work, we shall obtain the Fisher information, Fisher length, Shannon entropy, Shannon length, Renyi entropy, Renyi length, Tsallis entropy and the Fisher-Shannon complexity for the ring-shaped modified Kratzer potential. In this section, we present the definition of the information theoretical measures used in this work which are based on the 1-normalized electron density in the position and momentum space. The Shannon information entropy in the position space is given by Eq. (1). ( ) ( ) log ( )d S ρ ρ ρ = −∫ r r r ... (1)
