Shannon Information Entropy Sum of a Free Particle in Three Dimensions Using Cubical and Spherical Symmetry

Abstract

In this paper, the plane wave solutions of a free particle in three dimensions for Cubical and Spherical Symmetry have been considered. The coordinate space wave functions for the Cubical and Spherical Symmetry are obtained by solving the Schrdinger differential equation. The momentum space wave function is obtained by using the operator form of an observable in the case of Cubical Symmetry. For Spherical Symmetry, the same is obtained by taking the Fourier transform of the respective coordinate space wave function. The wave functions have been used to constitute probability densities in coordinate and momentum space for both the symmetries. Further, the Shannon information entropy has been computed both in coordinate and momentum space respectively for (L is the length of the side of the cubical box) values for Cubical Symmetry and for values in Spherical Symmetry keeping (k is the wave vector and p is the momentum of the free particle) constant. The values obtained for the Shannon information entropies are found to satisfy the Bialynicki-Birula and Myceilski (BBM) inequality at larger values () in case of Cubical Symmetry and for values of and in Spherical Symmetry.

A Theoretical Study on the Information Theoretic Inequalities and Fisher-Shannon Product of a Free Particle

Sudin Singh

In this article, the plane wave solution for a free particle in three dimensions is considered and the wave function is normalized in an arbitrarily large but finite cube. The momentum space wave function is obtained by taking the Fourier transform of the coordinate space wave function. The probability densities are employed to compute the numerical values of the information theoretic quantities such as Shannon information entropy (S), Fisher information entropy (I), Shannon power (J) and the Fisher–Shannon product (P) both in coordinate and momentum spaces for different values of the length (L) of the cubical box. Numerical values so found satisfy the Beckner, Bialynicki-Birula and Myceilski (BBM) inequality relation; Stam-Cramer-Rao inequalities (better known as the Fisher based uncertainty relation) and Fisher-Shannon product relation. This establishes the validity of the information theoretic inequalities in respect of the motion of a free particle.

Essentials of the Entropic Uncertainty Relations and Measurement of Fisher-Shannon Product of a Free Particle in Three Dimensions

Sudin Singh

The purpose of this article is to calculate the numerical values of the Shannon (S) and Fisher (I) information entropies along with their Shannon power (J) and Fisher-Shannon product (P) for a free particle in three dimensions. In both coordinate and momentum space, the numerical values have been calculated for various values of the cubical box's length (L). Further, the validity of the entropic uncertainty relations such as the Bialynicki-Birula and Myceilski (BBM) inequality relation, Stam-Cramer-Rao inequalities (better known as the Fisher based uncertainty relation) and the Fisher-Shannon product relation have been investigated. The Fisher-Shannon product has been introduced and analyzed, which can be considered as a new correlation measure. The article is basically based on the concept, measurements and on the behaviour of the Shannon entropy, Fisher information entropy, Shannon power and the Fisher-Shannon product. Here, the plane wave solution of the free particle in three dimensions is considered and the wave function is normalized in an arbitrarily large but finite cube. The Fourier transforms of the coordinate space wave function provided the momentum space wave function. The probability densities corresponding to the respective wave functions have been employed to compute the numerical values of the information theoretic quantities such as Shannon entropy, Fisher entropy, Shannon power and the Fisher-Shannon product both in the coordinate and momentum space and the computed values have been presented in the respective tables. Finally, the entropic uncertainty relations investigated have been found consistently satisfying the corresponding inequalities such as Bialynicki-Birula and Mycielski (BBM) inequality, the Stam-Cramer-Rao inequalities and the Fisher-Shannon product relation. The study establishes the validity of the entropic uncertainty relations for the motion of a free particle in three dimensions.

A Theoretical Study on Wave Packet Dynamics Using Information Theory

Sudin Singh, A. Saha

The article intertwines the study of wave packet dynamics with information-theoretic measurements in one dimensional (D =1) system. A localized wave packet at time t=0 has been considered here and its change at later instant of time t is calculated for the position space wave function. The momentum space wave function is obtained by taking the Fourier transform of the position space wave function at time t= 0 . These wave functions are then employed to construct the wave packet's respective probability densities in position and momentum space, and later have been used to compute the corresponding position and momentum space Shannon (S) and Fisher information (I) entropies. It has been observed that although the Shannon and Fisher information entropies explicitly depend on the standard deviation, neither the Shannon entropy sum nor the product of Fisher information entropies is. Moreover, for D dimensional systems, the computed values of the Shannon and Fisher entropies are found to satisfy the lower bounds of the Bialynicki-Birula and Myceilski (BBM) inequality relation and the Stam-Cramer-Rao inequalities better known as the Fisher based uncertainty relation. Thus, our theoretical study explores the validation of information-theoretic measurements for wave packet dynamics using the basic formulations of information theory.

Quantum information measures of infinite spherical well

Ye-Jiao Shi, Guo-Hua Sun, Farida Tahir +3 more

In this work, we study the Shannon information entropies [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] of an infinite spherical well. The Shannon entropy [Formula: see text] is calculated numerically in terms of the analytical result of the wave function in momentum space. Some typical features of the position and momentum probability densities [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] as well as the information entropy densities [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are demonstrated. We find that the position entropy [Formula: see text] increases with the radius a of the spherical well for given quantum numbers l, m and n. It is interesting to note that the position entropy [Formula: see text] decreases with the quantum numbers l and n for a fixed radius a and quantum number m. The position entropy [Formula: see text] is almost independent of the quantum numbers l, m and n. The momentum entropy [Formula: see text] first increases and then decreases with respect to the radius a. We also note that the [Formula: see text] increases with the radius a and finally arrives at a constant. In addition, the Bialynicki–Birula–Mycielski (BBM) inequality is verified and also hold for this confined system.

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.
