We introduce a series of quantities which characterize a given local operator in any conformal field theory from the viewpoint of quantum entanglement. It is defined by the increased amount of (Rényi) entanglement entropy at late time for an excited state defined by acting the local operator on the vacuum. We consider a conformal field theory on an infinite space and take the subsystem in the d...

Following the lead of [Carrillo, Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 147 (1999) 269–361], recently several authors have used Kružkov’s device of “doubling the variables” to prove uniqueness results for entropy solutions of nonlinear degenerate parabolic equations. In all these results, the second order differential operator is not allowed to depend explicitly on the spatial variable, which certainly rest...

The pure quantum entanglement is generalized to the case of mixed compound states on an operator algebra to include the classical and quantum encodings as particular cases. The true quantum entanglements are characterized by quantum couplings which are described as transpose-CP, but not Completely Positive (CP), trace-normalized linear positive maps of the algebra. The entangled (total) informa...

One important issue in the theory of Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) operators is the determination of the associated weights. One of the first approaches, suggested by O’Hagan, determines a special class of OWA operators having maximal entropy of the OWA weights for a given level of orness; algorithmically it is based on the solution of a constrained optimization problem. In this paper, using...

Mean values of any observable variable are always calculated in a coherent state as in a mixed state because the coherent state is an eigenstate of non-Hermitian operator. Thus, we propose the concept of a coherent ensemble closely resemble the canonical ensemble. The entropy and temperature are naturally defined for the coherent ensemble. As an example, entropy and temperature are evaluated fo...

In this work, the axiomatical definition of similarity measure, distance measure and inclusion measure for interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy soft set (IV IFSSs) are given. An axiomatical definition of entropy measure for IV IFSSs based on distance is firstly proposed, which is consistent with the axiomatical definition of fuzzy entropy of fuzzy sets introduced by De Luca and Termini. By diff...

The determination of ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operator weights is a very important issue of applying the OWA operator for decision making. One of the first approaches, suggested by O’Hagan, determines a special class of OWA operators having maximal entropy of the OWA weights for a given level of orness; algorithmically it is based on the solution of a constrained optimization problem. I...

In the framework of the Lindblad theory for open quantum systems, expressions for the density operator, von Neumann entropy and effective temperature of the damped harmonic oscillator are obtained. The entropy for a state characterized by a Wigner distribution function which is Gaussian in form is found to depend only on the variance of the distribution function. We give a series of inequalitie...

When quantifying the mixing properties of a quantum dynamical system in terms of dynamical entropy, the following scheme appears natural: observe the state of the system at regular time intervals while it evolves and determine the entropy produced over time. It is clear that this entropy will not only depend on the type of dynamics, but also on the type of observations. Intuitively, one can exp...
