Abstract

The approximate solutions of the Schrödinger equation with the central generalized Hulthén and Yukawa potential are investigated within the framework of the functional method. The obtained wave function and the energy levels are used to study the Shannon entropy, Renyi entropy, Fisher information, Shannon Fisher complexity, Shannon power and Fisher-Shannon product in both position and momentum spaces for the ground and first excited states. The theoretic information theories such as Shannon entropies Sr,Sp, Fisher information Ip,Ip and Renyi entropies Rβ as well as the information entropy probability densities ρ(r),ϕ(p) are illustrated graphically. The Bialynicki-Birula – Mycielski (BBM) inequality for the Shannon entropies and the Cramer-Rao inequality for the Fisher information are satisfied for the potential model.

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.

Information theory and thermodynamic properties for a combined potential model

C. A. Onate, B. B. Deji-Jinadu, O. O. Ajani +2 more

Yukawa potential and Hulthẻn potential are very useful potential models with applications in different areas of physics. The present study examined theoretic measure and thermodynamic properties of energy levels and wave functions for a combination of these two potentials. The effect of screening parameter on Fisher information and Shannon entropy as well as the effect of temperature on the various thermodynamic properties of the combined potentials and its subsets potentials are well studied. The effects of screening parameter on the thermodynamic properties of the combined potentials are also studied. This study shows equivalence of temperature effect on the combined potential and Hulthẻn potential but a different effect on Yukawa potential. Fisher information and the Shannon entropy for both position and momentum spaces as a function of the screening parameter obey Heisenberg principle, satisfy Cramer-Rao inequality and Bialynick-Birula, Mycielski inequality. The Shannon entropy shows the stability of the system for low screening parameter. It is also shown that the strength of Hulthẻn potential outweighed the strength of Yukawa potential in their combination for thermodynamic properties.

Thermal properties and quantum information theory with the shifted Morse potential

M. E. Udoh, P. O. Amadi, U. S. Okorie +5 more

By employing the Nikiforov–Uvarov functional analysis (NUFA) method, we solved the radial Schrödinger equation with the shifted Morse potential model. The analytical expressions of the energy eigenvalues, eigenfunctions and numerical results were determined for selected values of the potential parameters. Variations of different thermodynamic functions with temperature were discussed extensively. Different quantum information-theoretic measures, including Shannon entropy, Fisher information and Fisher–Shannon product of the shifted Morse potential, were investigated numerically and graphically in position and momentum spaces for the ground and the first excited states. The quantum information theories considered satisfied their corresponding inequalities, including Bialynicki–Birula–Mycielski, Stam–Cramer–Rao inequalities and the Fisher–Shannon product relation.

Scaling Properties of Net Information Measures for the Generalized Yukawa‐Type Potential

Opeyemi S. Oyun, K. J. Oyewumi, Cecilia N. Isonguyo

ABSTRACT The dimensional analysis of the position and momentum variances‐based quantum mechanical Heisenberg uncertainty measures was carried out for generalized Yukawa‐type potential. The entropic information measures given by Shannon entropy sums and Fisher information products were obtained out for generalized Yukawa‐type potential. It is interesting to observe that the Shannon entropy in position space, , increases and then decreases with the quantum number , suggesting a growth in delocalization due to a rapid increase in fluctuations. Likewise, the Shannon entropy in momentum space, , decreases and then increases with the quantum number , and vice versa. This unusual phenomenon may be explained by the parity restrictions inherent in the system. The Bialynicki‐Birula and Mycielski (BBM) entropic uncertainty relation was verified to be saturated; however, the sum of the entropies increases with the quantum number up to a certain point and then decreases as continues to increase. We also found that the Fisher information accurately increases with the quantum number . The numerical results that support the validity of the scaling properties for Shannon entropy sum and Fisher information product were presented. The existence of a squeezed phenomenon in the ground and first excited state for some values of the potential screening parameter in momentum space was found. The Heisenberg uncertainty relation is met when the squeeze in one coordinate is compensated by an increase in the other coordinate. The results obtained exceed the theoretical lower bounds for all the information‐theoretic measures considered, confirming their physical validity and accuracy.

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.
