We present here a completely operatorial approach, using Hilbert–Schmidt operators, to compute spectral distances between time-like separated “events”, associated with the pure states of the algebra describing the Lorentzian Moyal plane, using the axiomatic framework given by [N. Franco, The Lorentzian distance formula in noncommutative geometry, J. Phys. Conf. Ser. 968(1) (2018) 012005; N. Franco, Temporal Lorentzian spectral triples, Rev. Math. Phys. 26(8) (2014) 1430007]. The result shows no deformations of non-commutative origin, as in the Euclidean case, if the pure states are constructed out of Glauber–Sudarshan coherent states.

Years ago, A. Wehrl (Rev. Mod. Phys.50, 221 (1978)) introduced the concept of classicallike entropy of quantum states when a two-label continuous representation is used; for instance, the harmonic oscillator coherent states. Subsequently, E. H. Lieb (Commun. Math. Phys.62, 35 (1978)) extended that concept of entropy to the Bloch coherent spin states. Here, we consider spin-1/2 systems and calculate both the Wehrl–Lieb and von Neumann entropies, and then we compare the results and discuss the Wehrl–Lieb entropy as an alternative formulation to von Neumann's. As illustration, three examples are worked out: (i) the decoherence of a quantum state in a measurement process, (ii) the conservation of coherence, and (iii) the recoherence phenomena that appear in the solutions of a specific master equation that originates from a nonlinear Schrödinger equation.
