Abstract: Classical inequalities used in information theory such as those of de Bruijn, Fisher, and Kullback carry over from the setting of probability theory on Euclidean space to that of unimodular Lie groups. These are groups that posses integration measures that are invariant under left and right shifts, which means that even in noncommutative cases they share many of the useful features of Euclidean space. In practical engineering terms the rotation group and Euclidean motion group are the unimodular Lie groups of most interest, and the development of information theory applicable to these Lie groups opens up the potential to study problems relating to image reconstruction from irregular or random projection directions, information gathering in mobile robotics, satellite attitude control, and bacterial chemotaxis and information processing. Several definitions are extended from the Euclidean case to that of Lie groups including the Fisher information matrix, and inequalities analogous to those in classical information theory are derived and stated in the form of fifteen small theorems. In all such inequalities, addition of random variables is replaced with the group product, and the appropriate generalization of convolution of probability densities is employed.
