Deformed Generalization of the Semiclassical Entropy
Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Semiclassical distribution in phase-space
3. q-deformed coherent states
4. The q-Husimi distribution for 0 < q < 1
5. Deformed Wehrl entropies
6. q-Wehrl entropy bounds
7. Conclusions
- we have advanced a q-generalization of the Husimi distribution µq(z), which arises from the family of q-coherent states and found that the q-deformation does not change the HD’s property of being legitimate probability distributions.
- the above leads to a concomitant generalization, that we call the q-Wehrl one, Wq(µq), whose lower bound coincides with the well-known Lieb one. These semiclassical q-entropy approach the standard one when q tends to unity.
- Although in general deformed (or Tsallis’) entropies are quite different objects as compared with Shannon’s one, save for q close to unity, such is not the case for q-Wehrl entropies, which differ from the orthodox ones in just an additive quantity.
