Introduction to Information Entropy

Focusing on the foundational concepts of information entropy, this introductory book explores its role in measuring uncertainty within information theory. It connects information entropy to thermodynamic entropy and highlights its dependence on probability distributions. The text delves into quantum information science, emphasizing its potential in developing quantum computers to tackle complex problems. Additionally, it discusses the application of information theory across various scientific and technological fields, examining quantum information entropy in relation to important potentials and uncertainty relations in both position and momentum space.
