Information-theoretic measures for Morse and Pöschl–Teller potentials

Abstract: The spreading of the quantum-mechanical probability cloud for the ground state of the Morse and modified Po¨schl-Teller potentials, which controls the chemical and physical properties of some molecular systems, is studied in position and momentum space by means of global (Shannon's information entropy, variance) and local (Fisher's information) informationtheoretic measures. We establish a general relation between variance and Fisher's information, proving that, in the case of a real-valued and symmetric wavef… Show more

“…Contrary to the quantum entropies, which always obey the lower bound from Eq. (16), similar universal relation between position and momentum components of the Fisher information is not known though for several particular systems some inequalities have been derived [52][53][54][55][56]. In quantum mechanics, one of its main applications is due to the fact that it enters into the expression for the kinetic energy of the manyparticle system [57] and in this way establishes the link between, for example, density functional methods and information theory.…”

“…This line of inquiry has recently led to numerous researchers to calculate the measures of information for various quantummechanical potentials of a specific analytic form [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] as well as for hydrogenic systems with standard and nonstandard dimensionalities [3,8,[10][11][12][13], circular membranes [14], confined systems [15,16], and many-electron systems [17][18][19][20][21].…”

“…The disorder aspect has been discussed in depth by Frieden [23,24], and the uncertainty properties are clearly shown by the Stam inequalities [52] and the recently discovered Fisher-information-based uncertainty relation [7,14] I(ρ)I(ρ) ≥ 4, whereρ denotes the probability density associated to the Fourier transform of the variable X. For a deeper understanding of the Fisher notion, let us point out that broad and smooth densities have low gradient contents and so their Fisher information is small.…”
