Comparative analysis of information measures of the Dirichlet and Neumann two-dimensional quantum dots

Abstract

Analytic representation of both position as well as momentum waveforms of the two-dimensional (2D) circular quantum dots with the Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions (BCs) allowed an efficient computation in either space of Shannon $S$, Rényi $R(\alpha )$ and Tsallis $T(\alpha )$ entropies, Onicescu energies $O$ and Fisher informations $I$. It is shown that a transition to the 2D geometry lifts the 1D degeneracy of the position components $S_{\rho }$, $O_{\rho }$, $R_{\rho }(\alpha )$. Among many other findings, it is established that the lower limit ${\alpha }_{TH}$ of the semi-infinite range of the dimensionless Rényi/Tsallis coefficient where one-parameter momentum entropies exist is equal to 2/5 for the Dirichlet requirement and 2/3 for the Neumann one. Since their 1D counterparts are $1/4$ and $1/2$, respectively, this simultaneously reveals that this critical value crucially depends not only on the position BC but the dimensionality of the structure too. As the 2D Neumann threshold ${\alpha }_{TH}^N$ is greater than one half, its Rényi uncertainty relation for the sum of the position and wave vector components $R_{\rho }(\alpha )+R_{\gamma }\left(\frac{\alpha }{2\alpha -1}\right)$ is valid in the range $[1/2,2)$ only with its logarithmic divergence at the right edge whereas for all other systems it is defined at any coefficient $\alpha$ not smaller than one half. For both configurations, the lowest-energy level at $\alpha =1/2$ does saturate Rényi and Tsallis entropic inequalities. Other properties are discussed and analyzed from the mathematical and physical points of view.
