Probability-Representation Entropy for Spin-State Tomogram

  • Published:
Journal of Russian Laser Research Aims and scope

Abstract

The probability-representation entropy (tomographic entropy) of an arbitrary quantum state is introduced. Using the properties of the spin tomogram as the standard probability-distribution function, the tomographic entropy notion is discussed. The relation of tomographic entropy to Shannon entropy and von Neumann entropy is elucidated.
