Construction and analysis of statistical correlation measures through Diophantine equations

Saúl J. C. Salazar, Humberto G. Laguna, Robin P. Sagar

In this work, we explore the connection between Diophantine equations and the construction of informational measures, particularly mutual information, total correlation, and higher-order interaction information. These information measures are calculated in continuous variable quantum systems comprised of three to fifty harmonic oscillators, and their behaviour was compared among them. By analyzing the ground state of quantum harmonic oscillators, we establish a mathematical framework where Diophantine constraints emerge naturally in the computation of these quantities. There is an overall consistency in the behaviour of the introduced measures as function of the parameters of pairwise potential and the number of oscillators. Our results provide new insights into the interplay between number theory and quantum information, suggesting novel approaches to quantifying higher-order correlations in many-body quantum systems.

Mutual information sums and relations with interaction energies in N -particle quantum systems

Saúl J. C. Salazar, Humberto G. Laguna, Robin P. Sagar

The sums of position- and momentum-space mutual information measures are used to examine the pairwise and higher-order statistical correlation in the ground states of N-particle coupled oscillators. Analytical expressions for these measures are shown to be related to the logarithmic interaction energies of these states, plus those of mirror states where the intensities of the one- and two-body potentials are interchanged, and the nature of the attractive or repulsive interaction is opposite to that in the original state. The measures separate the contributions from the interactions and those from the effective interactions due to marginalization into different terms. The pairwise mutual information sum is linearly related to the Shannon entropy sum in two particle systems, while the total correlation sum exhibits a similar relationship in three particle ones. In the latter instance, the interaction information sum can be related to entropy differences. This illustrates how entropy sums are connected to correlation measure sums in these systems. All measures approach zero with large N, when the magnitudes of the one- and two-body potentials are fixed. The pair mutual information and total correlation sums decay monotonically with N in the presence of an attractive potential and monotonically increase with a repulsive potential. On the other hand, the interaction information sum exhibits a minimum at small N, with an attractive potential. This is a consequence of the higher-order correlations governing behavior at smaller N while the pairwise ones dominate at larger N. Results are presented when the magnitude of the one-body potential is set to N.

Higher-order squeezing and photon statistics for squeezed thermal states

Paulina Marian

By use of the squeezed-number-state basis, we study several features of the squeezed thermal states. Higher-order squeezing properties are found to be entirely determined by the second-order ones. The photon-number distribution is expressed in closed form in terms of a Legendre polynomial. We point out that at a critical value of the squeeze parameter, pairwise oscillations of the photon-number distribution set in. Finally, a compact analytical expression of the exact lth-order correlation function is derived and examined.
