As a possible alternative to conventional quantum mechanics, the Bayesian version of
probability theory is extended to include complex probabilities. An additional assumption of …

The maximum-entropy principle (max-ent) is a valuable and extensively used tool in
statistical mechanics and quantum information theory. It provides a method for inferring the …

The concept of distance in Hilbert space is relevant in a variety of scenarios, in particular for
investigating the quality of different approximations. In this work we study the relations …

A scheme for detecting signatures of phase transitions associated with pure quantum states,
from the knowledge of a limited set of expectation values, is introduced. An accurate …

The position-and momentum-space information entropies of nuclei are calculated in the
framework of two models of the nucleus, ie the harmonic oscillator shell model and a …

Statistical Mechanics (SM) has been quite successful in providing one with exact, or at least
approximate, descriptions of the time-dependent solutions of the Liouville (or of the von …

An approach to the collective excitations of a many-body system, derived from a special
maximum-entropy-based variational approximation for the ground state, is developed and …

Arguments of the Jaynes maximum entropy sort have proved to be surprisingly successful in
providing one with approximate descriptions of pure states in a variety of scenarios, entirely …
