Abstract: Shannon quantum information entropies Sho,gamma, Fisher informations Iho,gamma, Onicescu energies Oho,gamma and complexities eSO are calculated both in position (subscript ho) and momentum (gamma) spaces for azimuthally symmetric 2D nanoring that is placed into combination of transverse uniform magnetic field and Aharonov-Bohm (AB) flux phiAB and whose potential profile is modeled by superposition of quadratic and inverse quadratic dependencies on radius r. Increasing intensity B flattens momentum waveforms and in the limit of infinitely large fields they turn to zero, what means that the position wave functions , which are their Fourier counterparts, tend in this limit to the delta-functions. Position (momentum) Shannon entropy depends on the field B as a negative (positive) logarithm of omegaeffequivleft(omega02+omegac2/4ight)1/2, where omega0 determines the quadratic steepness of the confining potential and omegac is a cyclotron frequency. This makes the sum Shonm+Sgammanm a field-independent quantity that increases with the principal n and azimuthal m quantum numbers and does satisfy entropic uncertainty relation. Position Fisher information does not depend on m, linearly increases with n and varies as omegaeff whereas its n and m dependent Onicescu counterpart Ohonm changes as omegaeff1. The products IhonmIgammanm and OhonmOgammanm are B-independent quantities. A dependence of the measures on the ring geometry is discussed. It is argued that a variation of the position Shannon entropy or Onicescu energy with the AB field uniquely determines an associated persistent current as a function of phiAB at B=0. An inverse statement is correct too.
