Information Geometric Aspects of Probability Paths with Minimum Entropy Production for Quantum State Evolution

Steven Gassner, Carlo Cafaro, Sean A. Ali +1

We present an information geometric analysis of both entropic speeds and entropy production rates arising from geodesic evolution on manifolds parametrized by pure quantum states.…

An information geometric perspective on the complexity of macroscopic predictions arising from incomplete information

Sean Alan Ali, Carlo Cafaro, Steven Gassner +1

Motivated by the presence of deep connections among dynamical equations, experimental data, physical systems, and statistical modeling, we report on a series of findings uncovered…

Theoretical investigations of an information geometric approach to complexity

Sean Alan Ali, Carlo Cafaro

It is known that statistical model selection as well as identification of dynamical equations from available data are both very challenging tasks. Physical systems behave according…

Application of the Maximum relative Entropy method to the physics of ferromagnetic materials

Adom Giffin, Carlo Cafaro, Sean Alan Ali

It is known that the Maximum relative Entropy (MrE) method can be used to both update and approximate probability distributions functions in statistical inference problems. In this…

Thermodynamic aspects of information transfer in complex dynamical systems

Carlo Cafaro, Sean Alan Ali, Adom Giffin

From the Horowitz-Esposito stochastic thermodynamical description of information flows in dynamical systems [J. M. Horowitz and M. Esposito, Phys. Rev. X4, 031015 (2014)], it is kn…

Local softening of information geometric indicators of chaos in statistical modeling in the presence of quantum-like considerations

Adom Giffin, S. A. Ali, Carlo Cafaro

In a previous paper (C. Cafaro et al., 2012), we compared an uncorrelated 3D Gaussian statistical model to an uncorrelated 2D Gaussian statistical model obtained from the former mo…

On a Differential Geometric Viewpoint of Jaynes' Maxent Method and its Quantum Extension

S. A. Ali, Carlo Cafaro, Adom Giffin +2

We present a differential geometric viewpoint of the quantum MaxEnt estimate of a density operator when only incomplete knowledge encoded in the expectation values of a set of quan…

Information Geometric Modeling of Scattering Induced Quantum Entanglement

D. -H. Kim, S. A. Ali, C. Cafaro +1

We present an information geometric analysis of entanglement generated by an s-wave scattering between two Gaussian wave packets. We conjecture that the pre and post-collisional qu…

Interferometer Response to Scalar Gravitational Waves

C. Corda, S. A. Ali, C. Cafaro

It was recently suggested that the magnetic component of Gravitational Waves (GWs) is relevant in the evaluation of frequency response functions of gravitational interferometers. I…
