Abstract

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.

The Study of One-Dimensional Relativistic Shannon Entropy with Hulthen–Coulomb Interaction Using Klein-Gordon Equation

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

The study of quantum information entropies is significant in quantum computation and signal analysis. Much research work has been carried out in quantum information entropies under nonrelativistic wave equation. However, not much research has been reported in evaluating quantum information entropies using relativistic wave equation. In this work, we evaluate Shannon information entropy in one-dimensional space with generalised Hulthen plus Coulomb potential (GHPCP) in Klein-Gordon equation using parametric Nikiforov-Uvarov method. The numerical computations obtained both for position and momentum spaces as well as the Shannon sum obeys Bialynicki-Birula and Mycieslski (BBM) uncertainty inequality in order to ascertain the degree of accuracy of the analytical and numerical calculation. This research has relevance in atomic and molecular physics especially in localisation and delocalisation of electrons or particle in atomic orbitals.

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.

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.

COMPUTATIONAL ANALYSIS OF INFORMATION-THEORETIC MEASURES AND OSCILLATOR STRENGTHS IN QUANTUM SYSTEMS VIA THE NIKIFOROV–UVAROV METHOD

Etido Patrick Inyang, P.O. Okoi, I. M. Nwachukwu

This study investigates Fisher and Shannon entropies in one- and three-dimensional systems under the Radial Scalar Power Potential. Using the Nikiforov–Uvarov method combined with the Greene–Aldrich approximation, we derived energy eigenvalues and normalized wavefunctions. The results demonstrate that Shannon and Fisher entropies satisfy fundamental quantum information inequalities, including the Białynicki–Birula–Mycielski and Stam–Cramér–Rao bounds, across different spatial dimensions. Rényi entropy was also analyzed in both position and momentum spaces, revealing its dependence on the screening parameter and highlighting the complementarity in measurement precision between conjugate domains. In particular cases, the Radial Scalar Power Potential reduces to the Kratzer potential, allowing the computation of energy spectra for methylidyne (CH) and nitrogen (N₂) molecules. Energy increases with angular momentum, affecting molecular stability and spectroscopic transitions, while calculated oscillator strengths are in agreement with previous results, thereby validating the Radial Scalar Power Potential model for applications in both quantum information theory and molecular spectroscopy.

Fisher information (FI) and Shannon entropy (SP), as fundamental theoretical constructs, play crucial roles in quantum information, offering significant insights into communication systems. This work addresses the radial Schrödinger equation for a cotangent hyperbolic potential, solved using the parametric Nikiforov–Uvarov method. The derived wave functions are utilized to explore FI and SP within a one-dimensional system. The analysis focuses on the influence of the screening parameter and potential depth on these quantities, examining their behavior for the ground state and the first excited state. The study complies with key theoretical principles, including the Cramer–Rao inequality, the Beckner-Bialynicki-Birula-Mycielski (BBM) inequality, and the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. The results shed light on the dynamics of quantum states, emphasizing the relationship between quantum uncertainties and information measures. Significant variations in FI and SP emerge with changes in the screening parameter and potential depth, enhancing the understanding of quantum mechanics in confined systems. The findings also reveal the phenomenon of entropy squeezing, underscoring the complex nature of quantum uncertainties. The model demonstrates realistic behavior, with distinct transition points in SP as a function of potential depth, highlighting unique and intriguing characteristics. These contributions enrich the theoretical framework for investigating quantum systems, providing valuable perspectives on their intricate behaviors.

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.
