Abstract
Using convex Grothendieck fibrations, we characterize the von Neumann entropy as a functor from finite-dimensional non-commutative probability spaces and state-preserving *-homomorphisms to real numbers. Our axioms reproduce those of Baez, Fritz, and Leinster characterizing the Shannon entropy difference. The existence of disintegrations for classical probability spaces plays a crucial role in our characterization.
