چکیده

We revisit the Frieden–Hawkins’ Fisher order measure with a consideration of temperature effects. To this end, we appeal to the semiclassical approach. The order-measure’s appropriateness is validated in the semiclassical realm with regard to two physical systems. Insight is thereby gained with respect to the relationships amongst semiclassical quantifiers. In particular, it is seen that Wehrl’s entropy is as good a disorder indicator as the Frieden–Hawkins’ one.

Rényi–wehrl Entropies as Measures of Localization in Phase Space

We generalize the concept of the Wehrl entropy of quantum states which gives a basis–independent measure of their localization in phase space. We discuss the minimal values and the typical values of these Rényi–Wehrl entropies for pure states for spin systems. According to Lieb’s conjecture the minimal values are provided by the spin coherent states. Though Lieb’s conjecture remains unproven, w...

A Lower Bound for the Wehrl Entropy of Quantum Spin with Sharp High-spin Asymptotics

We derive a lower bound for the Wehrl entropy of a single quantum spin. The high-spin asymptotics of this bound coincides with Lieb’s conjecture up to first order in the inverse spin quantum number. The result presented here may be seen as complementary to the verification of the conjecture in cases of lowest spin by Schupp [Commun. Math. Phys. 207 (1999), 481]. In addition, we extend the valid...

Remarks on the Relation between Quantum and Classical Entropy as Proposed by A. Wehrl

According to Wehrl one associates to every state of a quantum system characterized by a density matrix o a “classical entropy” build up with help of the probability measure (zlwz)dz. Here (zl denotes the coherent state labelled by the point z of the phase space, and dz is the Liouville measure. In [l] and [2] Wehrl stated a number of interesting properties of this classical entropy and its rela...

Dynamic of Scaled Atomic Phase Entropy of a Single Two-Level Atom Interaction with SU(1,1) Quantum System

In this paper, we study the dynamics of the atomic inversion, scaled atomic Wehrl entropy and marginal atomic Q-function for a single two-level atom interacting with SU(1,1) quantum system. We obtain the wave function and system density matrix using specific initial conditions. We examine the effects of different parameters on the scaled atomic Wehrl entropy, atomic Q-function and their margina...

The Wehrl information entropy and its phase density, the so-called Wehrl phase distribution, are applied to describe Schrödinger cat and cat-like (kitten) states. The advantages of the Wehrl phase distribution over the Wehrl entropy in a description of the superposition principle are presented. The entropic measures are compared with a conventional phase distribution from the Husimi Q-function....
