• Abstract: Entropic uncertainty relations are interesting in their own rights as well as for a lot of applications. Keeping this in mind, we try to make the corresponding inequalities as tight as possible. The use of parametrized entropies also allows one to improve relations between various information measures. Measurements of special types are widely used in quantum information science. For many of them we can estimate the index of coincidence defined as the total sum of squared probabilities. Inequalities between entropies and the index of coincidence form a long-standing direction of researches in classical information theory. The so-called information diagrams provide a powerful tool to obtain inequalities of interest. In the literature, results of such a kind mainly deal with standard information functions linked to the Shannon entropy. At the same time, generalized information functions have found use in questions of quantum information theory. In effect, R\'{e}nyi and Tsallis entropies and related functions are of a separate interest. This paper is devoted to entropic uncertainty relations derived from information diagrams. The obtained inequalities are then applied to mutually unbiased bases, symmetric informationally complete measurements and their generalizations. We also improve entropic uncertainty relations for quantum measurement assigned to an equiangular tight frame.

  We develop a "qubit information logic" (QIL) theory that uses the "qubit information equation" (QIE) and logic to describe the correlation behaviors of multi-qubit entanglement. The QIL directly describes the correlation of each possible pair of qubits and how the correlation changes when other qubits are measured.

• Which entropy for general physical theories? [44.99833362998488]
  We address the problem of quantifying the information content of a source for an arbitrary information theory. The functions that solve this problem in classical and quantum theory are Shannon's and von Neumann's entropy, respectively. In a general information theory there are three different functions that extend the notion of entropy, and this opens the question as to whether any of them can universally play the role of the quantifier for the information content.
