Quantum Probabilities and Maximum Entropy
Probabilities in quantum physics can be shown to originate from a maximum entropy principle.
متن کاملMaximum Entropy Estimation of Transition Probabilities of Reversible Markov Chains
In this paper, we develop a general theory for the estimation of the transition probabilities of reversible Markov chains using the maximum entropy principle. A broad range of physical models can be studied within this approach. We use one-dimensional classical spin systems to illustrate the theoretical ideas. The examples studied in this paper are: the Ising model, the Potts model and the Blum...
متن کاملMaximum Entropy Models for Quantum Systems
Let E, belonging to the spectrum of H, be a fixed energy level. We are interested in the states for which the expected value of the energy equals E; i.e., in the states ρ such that ρ(H) = E. The classical result says that the maximal value of the entropy for such states is attained for a so-called Gibbs state; that is, a state with the density matrix e βH tr eβH for some β ∈ R. In this note, we...
متن کاملTsallis Maximum Entropy Lorenz Curves
In this paper, at first we derive a family of maximum Tsallis entropy distributions under optional side conditions on the mean income and the Gini index. Furthermore, corresponding with these distributions a family of Lorenz curves compatible with the optional side conditions is generated. Meanwhile, we show that our results reduce to Shannon entropy as $beta$ tends to one. Finally, by using ac...
متن کاملDiscontinuity of Maximum Entropy Inference and Quantum Phase Transitions
In this paper, we discuss the connection between two genuinely quantum phenomena—the discontinuity of quantum maximum entropy inference and quantum phase transitions at zero temperature. It is shown that the discontinuity of the maximum entropy inference of local observable measurements signals the non-local type of transitions, where local density matrices of the ground state change smoothly a...
