Popis: The notion of entropy (including macro state entropy and information entropy) is used, among others, to define the fractal dimension. Rényi entropy constitutes the basis for the generalized correlation dimension of multifractals. A motivation for the study of the information measures of orthogonal polynomials is because these polynomials appear in the densities of many quantum mechanical systems with shape-invariant potentials (e.g., the harmonic oscillator and the hydrogenic systems). With the help of a sequence of some generalized Jacobi polynomials, we define a sequence of discrete probability distributions. We introduce fractal Kullback–Leibler divergence, fractal Tsallis divergence, and fractal Rényi divergence between every element of the sequence of probability distributions introduced above and the element of the equiprobability distribution corresponding to the same index. Practically, we obtain three sequences of fractal divergences and show that the first two are convergent and the last is divergent.
