Information theoretic measure under the field of a cotangent hyperbolic potential

Fisher information (FI) and Shannon entropy (SP), as fundamental theoretical constructs, play crucial roles in quantum information, offering significant insights into communication systems. This work addresses the radial Schrödinger equation for a cotangent hyperbolic potential, solved using the parametric Nikiforov–Uvarov method. The derived wave functions are utilized to explore FI and SP within a one-dimensional system. The analysis focuses on the influence of the screening parameter and potential depth on these quantities, examining their behavior for the ground state and the first excited state. The study complies with key theoretical principles, including the Cramer–Rao inequality, the Beckner-Bialynicki-Birula-Mycielski (BBM) inequality, and the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. The results shed light on the dynamics of quantum states, emphasizing the relationship between quantum uncertainties and information measures. Significant variations in FI and SP emerge with changes in the screening parameter and potential depth, enhancing the understanding of quantum mechanics in confined systems. The findings also reveal the phenomenon of entropy squeezing, underscoring the complex nature of quantum uncertainties. The model demonstrates realistic behavior, with distinct transition points in SP as a function of potential depth, highlighting unique and intriguing characteristics. These contributions enrich the theoretical framework for investigating quantum systems, providing valuable perspectives on their intricate behaviors.
