Complexity Study of a Single Particle Under q-Deformed Potentials

Abstract

We have studied the variation of the position space statistical complexity measure defined by López-Ruiz, Mancini, and Calbet such as the product of exponential of the Shannon information entropy and the disequilibrium by using the 1D-normalized probability densities derived from solutions of the Schrödinger equation corresponding to the q-deformed harmonic oscillator and q-deformed Morse potentials. An analysis of the numerical results in terms of Shannon information entropy, disequilibrium and complexity measure are presented. In q-deformed harmonic oscillator, q-dependence of the complexity shows a minimum point for all excited energy levels. In the case of q-deformed Morse Potential, complexity decreases with increasing $q$ for the investigated diatomic molecules.
