Abstract

Abstract In this work, we determine the Fisher and Shannon entropies, the expectation values and the squeeze state for a noncentral inversely quadratic plus exponential Mie-type potential analytically. The proposed potential is solved under the Schrödinger equation using a special Greene Aldrich approximation to the centrifugal term to obtain a normalised wave function within the framework of the Nikiforov–Uvarov method. Numerical results are obtained for different screening parameters: α = 0.1, 0.12 and 0.13 for varying real constant parameter (B). The numerical solutions are obtained only for ground state. The numerical results of Fisher entropy both for position and momentum spaces are in good agreement with existing literature. The normalisation constant, wave function, and probability density plots are carried out using a well designed Mathematica algorithm. The Fourier transform of position space entropy gives the momentum space entropy.

Relativistic investigation of fisher information and Shannon entropy for Schioberg plus Yukawa potential

I. B. Okon, Akaninyene Daniel Antia, Cecilia N. Isonguyo +6 more

Quantum information entropies have been properly studied within the confines of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics ( QM ) by solving Schrödinger wave equation for different considerable potential models to obtained the energy and total normalised wave function which are essential tools for determining various information entropies. However, not much research has been done on evaluation of information entropies within the relativistic quantum mechanics because of its complexities and existence of both multiple and quadratic eigenvalues for fixed quantum state ( n ) and orbital angular quantum number \((\ell )\) . In this work, we investigate Fisher information and Shannon entropy in three dimensional space within the relativistic regime by solving Klein-Gordon ( KG ) equation for equal scalar and vector potential with Schioberg plus Yukawa potential ( SPYP ) using the Parametric Nikiforov-Uvarov ( PNU ) method and compare the results to its nonrelativistic counterpart. It is important to note that the numerical solutions for the three dimensional Fisher information and Shannon entropy obtained for both the relativistic and nonrelativistic wave equations using SPYP adequately satisfies Bialynicki-Birula and Mycieslski (BBM) uncertainty inequality. The radial wave function, radial probability density, momentum space wave function and momentum probability density graphical plots were all obtained for both cases respectively. The numerical computations for Fisher information and Shannon entropy in three dimensional space were carried out for \(\ell = 0\) with different quantum states \(n= 0\) and 1. The investigation of Fisher information and Shannon entropy are relevance in describing localisation and delocalisation mechanism of particles in atomic orbitals within a potential well, relativistic confinement effect and entropy-energy correlation.

Fisher information and Shannon entropy under the cotangent hyperbolic potential model

B. B. Deji-Jinadu, C. A. Onate, O. O. Ajani

A Schrödinger equation is solved for a cotangent hyperbolic potential using the elegant parametric Nikiforov–Uvarov method. The results obtained are used to calculate the Fisher information for position space and momentum space as well as the Shannon entropy for position space and momentum space at the ground state. The energies of the cotangent potential are observed to be fully bounded for different quantum states. The Fisher information satisfied the Fisher relation known as Cramer–Rao inequality for the Fisher product. Its result also obeyed the Heisenberg principle as its alternative for uncertainty measurement. However, the Shannon entropy only satisfied the Bialynick-Birula, Mycielski inequality for higher values of the screening parameter. Its relation to the Heisenberg principle failed as both the position space and the momentum space are parallel with high entropy squeezing. This potential has not been reported for any system to the best of our understanding.

Determination of probability density, position and momentum uncertainties, and information theoretic measures using a class of inversely quadratic Yukawa potential

Etido Patrick Inyang, Asmae El Aouami, Norshamsuri Ali +3 more

This study utilizes the Nikiforov-Uvarov method to solve the Schrödinger equation for the class of inversely quadratic Yukawa potential (CIQYP), deriving both the energy equation and the normalized wave function. Shannon entropy and Fisher information in both position and momentum spaces are analyzed for low-energy states using the wave function. The Bialynicki-Birula-Mycielski and Stam-Cramer-Rao inequalities are satisfied for the Shannon and Fisher information entropies, illustrating the complementary uncertainties inherent in position and momentum in quantum mechanics. The study underscores the interplay between position and momentum Fisher entropies, reinforcing the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, which imposes limits on the precise simultaneous measurement of conjugate variables. Eigenvalues of the CIQYP for three diatomic molecules (N₂, O₂, and NO) are obtained using their respective data, revealing that the bound state energy spectra of these diatomic molecules increase as both the principal quantum number and angular momentum quantum number rise. Expectation values were numerically determined, and the potential model simplifies to the Kratzer potential under specific boundary conditions, thereby ensuring analytical accuracy. The energy spectra of diatomic molecules such as I₂ and CO are examined, showing that for a fixed principal quantum number, the energy spectrum increases with increasing angular momentum quantum number, in very good agreement with previously obtained results using different analytical methods.

Eigen solutions, Shannon entropy and fisher information under the Eckart Manning Rosen potential model

C. A. Onate, M. C. Onyeaju, A. N. Ikot +2 more

We solved the Schrödinger equation with a certain approximation to the centrifugal term for an arbitrary angular momentum state with the Eckart Manning Rosen potential. The bound-state energy eigenvalues and the corresponding wave functions have been approximately obtained using the parametric Nikiforov Uvarov method. The solutions of the Schrödinger equation for the Eckart potential, Manning Rosen potential, and Hulthén potential have been obtained using a certain transformation. The concepts of the Shannon entropy and the Fisher information of a system under the Eckart Manning Rosen potential are investigated in detail. The behavior of the screening parameter and the quantum number n for Fisher information and the Shannon entropy are also investigated.

Theoretic quantum information entropies for the generalized hyperbolic potential

Akpan N. Ikot, Gaotsiwe Joel Rampho, P. O. Amadi +3 more

Abstract The Shannon entropy (S) and the Fisher Information (I) entropies are investigated for a generalized hyperbolic potential in position and momentum spaces. First, the Schrodinger equation is solved exactly using the Nikiforov‐Uvarov‐Functional Analysis method to obtain the energy spectra and the corresponding wave function. By Fourier transforming the position space wave function, the corresponding momentum wave function was obtained for the low‐lying states corresponding to the ground and first excited states. The positions and momentum of Shannon entropy and Fisher Information entropies were calculated numerically. Finally, the Bialynicki‐Birula and Mycielski and the Stam‐Cramer‐Rao inequalities for the Shannon entropy and Fisher Information entropies, respectively, were tested and were found to be satisfied for all cases considered.

Quantum Information and Energy Spectrum of the Ultra Generalized Exponential–Hyperbolic Potential via the Nikiforov–Uvarov Method

Etido Patrick Inyang, Jonathan Osang, Samuel Eyeh Mopta

This study presents a comprehensive investigation of quantum information measures for the one-dimensional Ultra Generalized Exponential–Hyperbolic Potential (UGEHP) within the framework of the Schrödinger equation. Analytical solutions for the energy eigenvalues and corresponding wave functions are obtained using the Nikiforov–Uvarov method. These solutions serve as the basis for evaluating Shannon entropy and Fisher information in both position and momentum spaces. The numerical results show that the total Shannon entropy satisfies the Beckner–Białynicki-Birula–Mycielski (BBM) inequality, while the Fisher information adheres to the Stam–Cramér–Rao bounds, thereby confirming consistency with fundamental quantum uncertainty principles. In addition, the energy spectrum exhibits a pronounced dependence on the screening parameter and quantum numbers, indicating the tunable confinement properties of the potential. The combined analysis establishes a clear connection between energy quantization, wavefunction localization, and information-theoretic measures, offering deeper insight into the effectiveness of the UGEHP model in describing complex quantum systems.
