Rényi Divergences, Bures Geometry and Quantum Statistical Thermodynamics
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Bures geometry of quantum statistical thermodynamics at thermal equilibrium is investigated by introducing the connections between the Bures angle and the Rényi 1/2-divergence. Fundamental relations concerning free energy, moments of work, and distance are established.

Escort entropies and divergences and related canonical distribution
We discuss two families of two-parameter entropies and divergences, derived from the standard Rényi and Tsallis entropies and divergences. These divergences and entropies are found as divergences or entropies of escort distributions. Exploiting the nonnegativity of the divergences, we derive the expression of the canonical distribution associated to the new entropies and a observable given as a...
متن کاملDifferent quantum f -divergences and the reversibility of quantum operations
The concept of classical f -divergences gives a unified framework to construct and study measures of dissimilarity of probability distributions; special cases include the relative entropy and the Rényi divergences. Various quantum versions of this concept, and more narrowly, the concept of Rényi divergences, have been introduced in the literature with applications in quantum information theory;...

متن کاملThermodynamic length for far-from-equilibrium quantum systems.
We consider a closed quantum system initially at thermal equilibrium and driven by arbitrary external parameters. We derive a lower bound on the entropy production which we express in terms of the Bures angle between the nonequilibrium and the corresponding equilibrium state of the system. The Bures angle is an angle between mixed quantum states and defines a thermodynamic length valid arbitrar...
متن کاملα-z-Rényi relative entropies
We consider a two-parameter family of Rényi relative entropies Dα,z(ρ||σ) that are quantum generalisations of the classical Rényi divergence Dα(p||q). This family includes many known relative entropies (or divergences) such as the quantum relative entropy, the recently defined quantum Rényi divergences, as well as the quantum Rényi relative entropies. All its members satisfy the quantum general...
