Limiting case α → 1? edit

The article claims (at the end) that the limiting case for α → 1 is the von Neumann entropy. But that would make it infinity, which doesn't make sense (to me anyway). Vaughan Pratt (talk) 14:36, 17 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Ok, I get it. The numerator is 0 so 0 times infinity could be anything. When you look at α very near 1 the ratio is very near H(X) (the Shannon entropy). Vaughan Pratt (talk) 04:39, 18 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
