Monotone complexity measures of multidimensional quantum systems with central potentials

In this work, we explore the (inequality-type) properties of the monotone complexity-like measures of the internal complexity (disorder) of multidimensional non-relativistic electron systems subject to a central potential. Each measure quantifies the combined balance of two spreading facets of the electron density of the system. We show that the hyperspherical symmetry (i.e., the multidimensional spherical symmetry) of the potential allows Cramér–Rao, Fisher–Shannon, and Lopez-Ruiz, Mancini, Calbet–Rényi complexity measures to be expressed in terms of the space dimensionality and the hyperangular quantum numbers of the electron state. Upper bounds, mutual complexity relationships, and complexity-based uncertainty relations of position–momentum type are also found by means of the electronic hyperangular quantum numbers and, at times, the Heisenberg–Kennard relation. We use a methodology that includes a variational approach with a covariance matrix constraint and some algebraic linearization techniques of hyperspherical harmonics and Gegenbauer orthogonal polynomials.
