Inequalities for nonnegative numbers and information properties of qudit tomograms

We discuss some inequalities for N nonnegative numbers. We use these inequalities to obtain known inequalities for probability distributions and new entropic and information inequalities for quantum tomograms of qudit states. The inequalities characterize the degree of quantum correlations in addition to noncontextuality and quantum discord. We use the subadditivity and strong subadditivity conditions for qudit tomographic-probability distributions depending on the unitary-group parameters in order to derive new inequalities for Shannon, Rényi, and Tsallis entropies of spin states.     

Tight multipartite Bell's inequalities involving many measurement settings

We derive tight Bell's inequalities for N>2 observers involving more than two alternative measurement settings. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a general quantum state to violate the new inequalities. The inequalities are violated by some classes of states, for which all standard Bell's inequalities with two measurement settings per observer are satisfied.     

A Strengthened Monotonicity Inequality of Quantum Relative Entropy: A Unifying Approach Via Rényi Relative Entropy

We derive a strengthened monotonicity inequality for quantum relative entropy by employing properties of \({\alpha}\)-Rényi relative entropy. We develop a unifying treatment toward the improvement of some quantum entropy inequalities. In particular, an emphasis is put on a lower bound of quantum conditional mutual information (QCMI) as it gives a Pinsker-like lower bound for the QCMI. We also give some improved entropy inequalities based on Rényi relative entropy. The inequalities obtained, thus, extend some well-known ones. We also obtain a condition under which a tripartite operator becomes a Markov state. As a by-product we provide some trace inequalities of operators, which are of independent interest.     

Entropic Inequalities and Properties of Some Special Functions

Using known entropic and information inequalities, we obtain new inequalities for some classical polynomials. We consider examples of Jacobi and Legendre polynomials.     

General Bell-CHSH type and entropic inequalities based on quantum tomograms

Review of Bell-CHSH type and entropic inequalities in composite quantum correlated systems in the probability representation of states is presented. The upper bounds for some new Bell-CHSH type inequalities within the framework of classical probability theory and in quantum tomography are compared. Violation of Bell-CHSH type inequalities are shown explicitly using the method of averaging in tomographic picture of quantum states. Joint tomographic entropies of multiqubit systems are studied. Limitations on inequalities for tomographic entropies are obtained. A negative result of possible connection between the violation of entropic and Bell-CHSH type inequalities in multi-partite states is reported.     

Some correlation inequalities for Ising antiferromagnets

We prove some inequalities for two-point correlations of Ising antiferromagnets and derive inequalities relating correlations of ferromagnets to correlations of antiferromagnets whose interactions and field strengths have equal magnitudes. The proofs are based on the method of duplicate spin variables introduced by J. Percus and used by several authors to derive correlation inequalities for Ising ferromagnets.     

Optimal Concentration Inequalities for Dynamical Systems

For dynamical systems modeled by a Young tower with exponential tails, we prove an exponential concentration inequality for all separately Lipschitz observables of n variables. When tails are polynomial, we prove polynomial concentration inequalities. Those inequalities are optimal. We give some applications of such inequalities to specific systems and specific observables.     

Some Integral Inequalities Involving Metrics

In this work, we establish some integral inequalities involving metrics. Moreover, some applications to partial metric spaces are given. Our results are extension of previous obtained metric inequalities in the discrete case.     

Entanglement Conditions for Mixed SU(2) and SU(1, 1) Systems

We derive a class of inequalities for detecting entanglement in the mixed SU(2) and SU(1,?1) systems based on the Schrödinger-Robertson indeterminacy relations in conjugation with the partial transposition. These inequalities are in general stronger than those based on the usual Heisenberg uncertainty relations for detecting entanglement. Furthermore, based on the complete reduction from SU(2) and SU(1,?1) systems to bosonic systems, we derive some entanglement conditions for two-mode systems. We also use the partial reduction to obtain some inequalities in the mixed SU(2) (or SU(1,?1)) and bosonic systems.     

Some Parameterized Quantum Midpoint and Quantum Trapezoid Type Inequalities for Convex Functions with Applications

Quantum information theory, an interdisciplinary field that includes computer science, information theory, philosophy, cryptography, and entropy, has various applications for quantum calculus. Inequalities and entropy functions have a strong association with convex functions. In this study, we prove quantum midpoint type inequalities, quantum trapezoidal type inequalities, and the quantum Simpson’s type inequality for differentiable convex functions using a new parameterized q-integral equality. The newly formed inequalities are also proven to be generalizations of previously existing inequities. Finally, using the newly established inequalities, we present some applications for quadrature formulas.     

Characterizing entanglement via uncertainty relations

We derive a family of necessary separability criteria for finite-dimensional systems based on inequalities for variances of observables. We show that every pure bipartite entangled state violates some of these inequalities. Furthermore, a family of bound entangled states and true multipartite entangled states can be detected. The inequalities also allow us to distinguish between different classes of true tripartite entanglement for qubits. We formulate an equivalent criterion in terms of covariance matrices. This allows us to apply criteria known from the regime of continuous variables to finite-dimensional systems.     

Minisuperspace model of Machian resolution of Problem of Time. I. Isotropic case

It is well known that the three parameters that characterize the Kerr black hole (mass, angular momentum and horizon area) satisfy several important inequalities. Remarkably, some of these inequalities remain valid also for dynamical black holes. This kind of inequalities play an important role in the characterization of the gravitational collapse. They are closed related with the cosmic censorship conjecture. In this article recent results in this subject are reviewed.     

Bell-type inequalities in orthomodular lattices. II. Inequalities of higher order

This paper is a continuation of the first part and it is devoted to the study of Bell-type inequalities of order at least 3 in orthomodular lattices. We give some necessary and sufficient conditions for the validity of Bell-type inequalities of order 3 and also, more generally, for those of ordern.     

Experimental detection of quantum entanglement

In this review, we introduce some methods for detecting or measuring entanglement. Several nonlinear entanglement witnesses are presented. We derive a series of Bell inequalities whose maximally violations for any multipartite qubit states can be calculated by using our formulas. Both the nonlinear entanglement witnesses and the Bell inequalities can be operated experimentally. Thus they supply an effective way for detecting entanglement. We also introduce some experimental methods to measure the entanglement of formation, and the lower bound of the convex-roof extension of negativity.     

Geometric inequalities in spherically symmetric spacetimes

In geometric inequalities ADM mass plays more fundamental role than the concept of quasi-local mass. This paper is to demonstrate that using the quasi-local mass some new insights can be acquired. In spherically symmetric spacetimes the Misner–Sharp mass and the concept of the Kodama vector field provides an ideal setting to the investigations of geometric inequalities. We applying the proposed new techniques to investigate the spacetimes containing black hole or cosmological horizons but we shall also apply them in context of normal bodies. Most of the previous investigations applied only the quasi-local charges and the area. Our main point is to include the quasi-local mass in the corresponding geometrical inequalities. This way we recover some known relations but new inequalities are also derived.     

Mathematical inequalities for some divergences

Some natural phenomena are deviating from standard statistical behavior and their study has increased interest in obtaining new definitions of information measures. But the steps for deriving the best definition of the entropy of a given dynamical system remain unknown. In this paper, we introduce some parametric extended divergences combining Jeffreys divergence and Tsallis entropy defined by generalized logarithmic functions, which lead to new inequalities. In addition, we give lower bounds for one-parameter extended Fermi–Dirac and Bose–Einstein divergences. Finally, we establish some inequalities for the Tsallis entropy, the Tsallis relative entropy and some divergences by the use of the Young’s inequality.     

On Bell-Like Inequalities and Pseudo-Hermitian Operators

We review some well-known Bell inequalities, the relations between the Bell inequality and quantum separability, and the entanglement distillation of quantum states. Bell inequalities with pseudo Hermitian operators are also discussed.     

Some inequalities for norm ideals

Several inequalities for norms of operators are extended to more operators and/or to more norms. These include results of Halmos and Bouldin on approximating a normal operator by another with restricted spectrum, the Powers-Størmer and the van Hemmen-Ando inequalities for the distance between the square roots of two positive operators and also some recent generalisations of these latter results by Kittaneh.     

GHS and other inequalities

We use a transformation due to Percus to give a simple derivation of the Griffiths, Hurst, and Sherman, and some other new inequalities, for Ising ferromagnets with pair interactions. The proof makes use of the Griffiths, Kelly, and Sherman and the Fortuin, Kasteleyn, and Ginibre inequalities.Work supported in part by USAFOSR-73-2430.     

Tighter Constraints of Multiqubit Entanglement

Monogamy and polygamy relations characterize the distributions of entanglement in multipartite systems.We provide classes of monogamy and polygamy inequalities of multiqubit entanglement in terms of concurrence, entanglement of formation, negativity, Tsallis-q entanglement, and Rényi-α entanglement, respectively. We show that these inequalities are tighter than the existing ones for some classes of quantum states.
