We give a definition of relative entropy with respect to a sublinear expectation and establish large deviation principle for the empirical measures for independent random variables under the sublinear expectation.

Information Entropy Squeezing for a Atom in Mode-Mode Competition System

The entropy squeezing properties for a two-level atom interacting with a two-mode field via two differentcompeting transitions are investigated from a quantum information point of view.The influences of the initial state of thesystem and the relative coupling strength between the atom and the field on the atomic information entropy squeezingare discussed.Our results show that the squeezed direction and the frequency of the information entropy squeezing canbe controlled by choosing the phase of the atom dipole and the relative competing strength of atom-field,respectively.We find that,under the same condition,no atomic variance squeezing is predicted from the HUR while optimal entropysqueezing is obtained from the EUR,so the quantum information entropy is a remarkable precision measure for theatomic squeezing in the considered system.

Multi-attribute decision making model based on optimal membership and relative entropy

To study the problems of multi-attribute decision making in which the attribute values are given in the form of linguistic fuzzy numbers and the information of attribute weights are incomplete, a new multi-attribute decision making model is presented based on the optimal membership and the relative entropy. Firstly, the definitions of the optimal membership and the relative entropy are given. Secondly, for all alternatives, a set of preference weight vectors are obtained by solving a set of linear programming models whose goals axe all to maximize the optimal membership. Thirdly, a relative entropy model is established to aggregate the preference weight vectors, thus an optimal weight vector is determined. Based on this optimal weight vector, the algorithm of deviation degree minimization is proposed to rank all the alternatives. Finally, a decision making example is given to demonstrate the feasibility and rationality of this new model.

Quantum entanglement between the two-mode fields and atomic entropy squeezing in the system of a moving atom interacting with two-mode entangled coherent field

This paper investigates the entropy squeezing of a moving two-level atom interacting with the two-mode entangled coherent field via two-photon transition by using an entropic uncertainty relation and the degree of entanglement between the two-mode fields by using quantum relative entropy.The results obtained from numerical calculation indicate that the squeezed period,the duration of entropy squeezing and the maximal squeezing can be controlled by appropriately choosing the intensity of the light field,the atomic motion and the field-mode structure.The atomic motion leads to the periodic recovery of the initial maximal degree of entanglement between the two-mode fields.Moreover,there exists a corresponding relation between the time evolution properties of the atomic entropy squeezing and those of the entanglement between the two-mode fields.

Coherence measures based on sandwiched Rényi relative entropy

Coherence is a fundamental ingredient for quantum physics and a key resource for quantum information theory.Baumgratz,Cramer and Plenio established a rigorous framework(BCP framework)for quantifying coherence[Baumgratz T,Cramer M and Plenio M B Phys.Rev.Lett.113140401(2014)].In the present paper,under the BCP framework we provide two classes of coherence measures based on the sandwiched Rényi relative entropy.We also prove that we cannot get a new coherence measure f(C(·))by a function f acting on a given coherence measure C.

Quantum entanglement in the system of a moving V-type three-level atom interacting with the SU（1,1）-related coherent fields

In a system with a moving V-type three-level atom interacting with the SU（1,1）-related coherent fields, we investigate the entanglement between the moving three-level atom and the SU（1,1）-related coherent fields by using the quantum-reduced entropy, and that between the SU（1,1）-related coherent fields by using the quantum relative entropy of entanglement. It is shown that the two kinds of entanglement are dependent on the atomic motion and exhibit the periodic evolution with a period of 2π/p. The maximal atom-field qutrit entanglement state can be prepared, and the entanglement preservation of the SU（1,1）-related coherent fields can be realized in the interacting process via the appropriate selection of system parameters and interaction time.

RELATIVE ENTROPY AND COMPRESSIBLE POTENTIAL FLOW

Compressible （full） potential flow is expressed as an equivalent first-order system of conservation laws for density ρ and velocity v. Energy E is shown to be the only nontrivial entropy for that system in multiple space dimensions, and it is strictly convex in ρ, v if and only if ｜v｜ 〈 c. For motivation some simple variations on the relative entropy theme of Dafer- mos/DiPerna are given, for example that smooth regions of weak entropy solutions shrink at finite speed, and that smooth solutions force solutions of singular entropy-compatible per- turbations to converge to them. We conjecture that entropy weak solutions of compressible potential flow are unique, in contrast to the known counterexamples for the Euler equations.

Relative entropy entanglement for as a measure of Gaussian states

In this paper, we derive an explicit analytic expression of the relative entropy between two general Gaussian states. In the restriction of the set for Gaussian states and with the help of relative entropy formula and Peres-Simon separability criterion, one can conveniently obtain the relative entropy entanglement for Gaussian states. As an example, the relative entanglement for a two-mode squeezed thermal state has been obtained.

RELATIVE ENTROPY DIMENSION FOR COUNTABLE AMENABLE GROUP ACTIONS

We study the topological complexities of relative entropy zero extensions acted upon by countable-infinite amenable groups.First,for a given Følner sequence,we define the relative entropy dimensions and the dimensions of the relative entropy generating sets to characterize the sub-exponential growth of the relative topological complexity.we also investigate the relations among these.Second,we introduce the notion of a relative dimension set.Moreover,using the method,we discuss the disjointness between the relative entropy zero extensions via the relative dimension sets of two extensions,which says that if the relative dimension sets of two extensions are different,then the extensions are disjoint.

Relative entropy of entanglement of two-qubit 'X' states

Two closest single-qubit states could be diagonalised by the same unitary matrix, which helps to find the relative entropy of entanglement of a two-qubit ＇X＇ state. We formulate two binary equations for the relative entropy of entanglement and the corresponding closest separable state of a given two-qubit ＇X＇ state. This approach can be applied to get the relative entropy of entanglement of many widely-discussed two-qubit states, such as pure states, Werner states, and so on.

Quantum information entropy for one-dimensional system undergoing quantum phase transition

Calculations of the quantum information entropy have been extended to a non-analytically solvable situation. Specifically, we have investigated the information entropy for a one-dimensional system with a schematic ＂Landau＂ potential in a numerical way. Particularly, it is found that the phase transitional behavior of the system can be well expressed by the evolution of quantum information entropy. The calculated results also indicate that the position entropy S_x and the momentum entropy S_p at the critical point of phase transition may vary with the mass parameter M but their sum remains as a constant independent of M for a given excited state. In addition, the entropy uncertainty relation is proven to be robust during the whole process of the phase transition.

New Retrieval Method Based on Relative Entropy for LanguageModeling with Different Smoothing Methods

A language model for information retrieval is built by using a query language model to generate queries and a document language model to generate documents. The documents are ranked according to the relative entropies of estimated document language models with respect to the estimated query language model. Two popular and relatively efficient smoothing methods, the Jelinek- Mercer method and the absolute discounting method, are used to smooth the document language model in estimation of the document language, A combined model composed of the feedback document language model and the collection language model is used to estimate the query model. A performacne comparison between the new retrieval method and the existing method with feedback is made, and the retrieval performances of the proposed method with the two different smoothing techniques are evaluated on three Text Retrieval Conference （TREC） data sets. Experimental results show that the method is effective and performs better than the basic language modeling approach; moreover, the method using the Jelinek-Mercer technique performs better than that using the absolute discounting technique, and the perfomance is sensitive to the smoothing peramters.

Experimental Study on Entropy Features in Machining Vibrations of A Thin-Walled Tubular Workpiece

In machining processes,chatter vibrations are always regarded as one of the major limitations for production quality and efficiency.Accurate and timely monitoring of chatter is helpful to maintain stable machining operations.At present,most chatter monitoring methods are based on the energy level at specified chatter frequencies or frequency bands.However,the spectral features of chatter could change during machining operations due to complexity and time-varying dynamics of the physical machining process.The purpose of this paper is to investigate the time-varying chatter features in turning of thin-walled tubular workpieces from the perspective of entropy.The airborne acoustics was selected as the source of information for machining condition monitoring.First,corresponding to the distinguishing surface topographies relevant to machining conditions,the features of the sound signal emitted during turning of the thin-walled cylindrical workpieces were extracted using the spectral analysis and wavelet packet transform,respectively.It was shown that the dominant vibration frequency as well as the energy distribution could shift with the transition of the machining status.After that,two relative entropy indicators based on the spectrum and the wavelet packet energy were constructed to identify chattering events in turning of the thin-walled tubes.The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed indicators could accurately reflect the transition of machining conditions with high sensitivity and robustness in comparison with the traditional FFT-based methods.The achievement of this study lays the foundations of the online chatter monitoring and control technique for turning of the thin-walled tubular workpieces.

Measures of Variability for Qualitative Variables Using the R Software

Although there are many measures of variability for qualitative variables, they are little used in social research, nor are they included in statistical software. The aim of this article is to present six measures of variation for qualitative variables of simple calculation, as well as to facilitate their use by means of the R software. The measures considered are, on the one hand, Freemans variation ratio, Morals universal variation ratio, Kvalseths standard deviation from the mode, and Wilcoxs variation ratio which are most affected by proximity to a constant random variable, where the measures of variability for qualitative variables reach their minimum value of 0. On the other hand, the Gibbs-Poston index of qualitative variation and Shannons relative entropy are included, which are more affected by the proximity to a uniform distribution, where the measures of variability for qualitative variables reach their maximum value of 1. Point and interval estimation are addressed. Bootstrap by the percentile and bias-corrected and accelerated percentile methods are used to obtain confidence intervals. Two calculation situations are presented: with a sample mode and with two or more modes. The standard deviation from the mode among the six considered measures, and the universal variation ratio among the three variation ratios, are particularly recommended for use.

Quantum entanglement in the system of two two-level atoms interacting with a single-mode vacuum field

The entanglement properties of the system of two two-level atoms interacting with a single-mode vacuum field are explored. The quantum entanglement between two two-level atoms and a single-mode vacuum field is investigated by using the quantum reduced entropy; the quantum entanglement between two two-level atoms, and that between a single two-level atom and a single-mode vacuum field are studied in terms of the quantum relative entropy. The influences of the atomic dipole-dipole interaction on the quantum entanglement of the system are also discussed. Our results show that three entangled states of two atoms-field, atom-atom, and atom-field can be prepared via two two-level atoms interacting with a single-mode vacuum field.

Entanglement in a system of two two-level atoms interacting with a single-mode field

We investigate the entanglement in a system of two coupling atoms interacting with a single-mode field by means of quantum information entropy theory. The quantum entanglement between the two atoms and the coherent field is discussed by using the quantum reduced entropy, and the entanglement between the two coupling atoms is also investigated by using the quantum relative entropy. In addition, the influences of the atomic dipole^lipole interaction intensity and the average photon number of the coherent field on the degree of the entanglement is examined. The results show that the evolution of the degree of entanglement between the two atoms and the field is just opposite to that of the degree of entanglement between the two atoms. And the properties of the quantum entanglement in the system rely on the atomic dipole^lipole interaction and the average photon number of the coherent field.

Preparation and control of entangled states in the two-mode coherent fields interacting with a moving atom via two-photon process

We investigate the preparation and the control of entangled states in a system with the two-mode coherent fields interacting with a moving two-level atom via the two-photon transition. We discuss entanglement properties between the two-mode coherent fields and a moving two-level atom by using the quantum reduced entropy, and those between the two-mode coherent fields by using the quantum relative entropy. In addition, we examine the influences of the atomic motion and field-mode structure parameter p on the quantum entanglement of the system. Our results show that the period and the duration of the prepared maximal atom-field entangled states and the frequency of maximal two-mode field entangled states can be controlled, and that a sustained entangled state of the two-mode field, which is independent of atomic motion and the evolution time, can be obtained, by choosing appropriately the parameters of atomic motion, field-mode structure, initial state and interaction time of the system.

Revised Geometric Measure of Entanglement for Multipartite and Continuous Variable Systems

Based on the revised geometric measure of entanglement （RGME） proposed by us [J. Phys. A： Math. Theor. 40 （2007） 3507], we obtain the RGME of multipartite state including three-qubit GHZ state, W state, and the generalized Smolin state （GSS） in the presence of noise and the two-mode squeezed thermal state. Moreover, we compare their RGME with geometric measure of entanglement （GME） and relative entropy of entanglement （RE）. The results indicate RGME is an appropriate measure of entanglement. Finally, we define the Gaussian GME which is an entangled monotone.
