Volume of classical and quantum ensembles: geometric approach to entropy and information
نویسنده
چکیده
It is shown for classical and quantum ensembles that there is a unique quantity which has the properties of a “volume”. This quantity is a function of the ensemble entropy, and hence provides a geometric interpretation for the latter. It further provides a simple geometric picture for deriving and unifying a number of results in classical and quantum information theory, and for discussing entropic uncertainty relations.

It is shown that a unique measure of volume is associated with any statistical ensemble, which directly quantifies the inherent spread or localisation of the ensemble. It is applicable whether the ensemble is classical or quantum, continuous or discrete, and may be derived from a small number of theory-independent geometric postulates. Remarkably, this unique ensemble volume is proportional to ...

متن کاملCoherent Transport of Single Photon in a Quantum Super-cavity with Mirrors Composed of Λ-Type Three-level Atomic Ensembles
In this paper, we study the coherent transport of single photon in a coupled resonator waveguide (CRW) where two threelevel Λ-type atomic ensembles are embedded in two separate cavities. We show that it is possible to control the photon transmission and reflection coefficients by using classical control fields. In particular, we find that the total photon transmission and reflection are achieva...

In this paper we try to formulate the Berezin quantization on projective Hilbert space P(H) and use its geometric structure to construct a correspondence between a given classical theory and a given quantum theory. It wil be shown that the star product in berezin quantization is equivalent to the Posson bracket on coherent states manifold M, embodded in P(H), and the Berezin method is used to...
متن کاملConstraints on Multipartite Quantum Entropies
The von Neumann entropy plays a vital role in quantum information theory. As the Shannon entropy does in classical information theory, the von Neumann entropy determines the capacities of quantum channels. Quantum entropies of composite quantum systems are important for future quantum network communication their characterization is related to the so called quantum marginal problem. Furthermore,...
