We consider the analysis of probability distributions through their associated covariance operators from reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. We show that the von Neumann entropy and relative entropy of these operators are intimately related…
We propose a method to derive the stationary size distributions of a system, and the degree distributions of networks, using maximisation of the Gibbs-Shannon entropy. We apply this to a preferential attachment-type algorithm for systems of…
Boltzmann introduced in the 1870's a logarithmic measure for the connection between the thermodynamical entropy and the probabilities of the microscopic configurations of the system. His entropic functional for classical systems was…
Radon-Nikodym (RN) derivative between two measures arises naturally in the affine structure of the space of probability measures with densities. Entropy, free energy, relative entropy, and entropy production as mathematical concepts…
We examine the {combinatorial} or {probabilistic} definition ("Boltzmann's principle") of the entropy or cross-entropy function $H \propto \ln \mathbb{W}$ or $D \propto - \ln \mathbb{P}$, where $\mathbb{W}$ is the statistical weight and…
