Abstract: The entropic moments of the probability density of a quantum system in position and momentum spaces describe not only some fundamental and/or experimentally accessible quantities of the system, but also the entropic uncertainty measures of R'enyi type which allow one to find the most relevant mathematical formalizations of the position-momentum Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, the entropic uncertainty relations. It is known that the solution of difficult three-dimensional problems can be very well approximated by a series development in 1/D in similar systems with a non-standard dimensionality D; moreover, several physical quantities of numerous atomic and molecular systems have been numerically shown to have values in the large-D limit comparable to the corresponding ones provided by the three-dimensional numerical self-consistent field methods. The D-dimensional hydrogenic atom is the main prototype of the physics of multidimensional many-electron systems. In this work we rigorously determine the leading term of the R'enyi entropies of the D-dimensional hydrogenic atom at the limit of large D. As a byproduct, we show that our results saturate the known position-momentum R'enyi-entropy-based uncertainty relations.
