Entropic dynamics is a framework for defining dynamical systems that is aligned with the principles of information theory. In an entropic dynamics model for motion on a statistical manifold, we find that the rate of changes for expected…

We consider impulsive semiflows defined on compact metric spaces and deduce a variational principle. In particular, we generalize the classical notion of topological entropy to our setting of discontinuous semiflows.

The log-periodic equation for the entropy $S = - (k/a) \sum_{i=1}^{N} p_{i} \sin(a \ln p_{i})$, based on the forgotten Sharma-Taneja entropy measure, is studied for the first time with $N$ the total number of system states and $p_{i}$ the…

Thermodynamic entropy, as defined by Clausius, characterizes macroscopic observations of a system based on phenomenological quantities such as temperature and heat. In contrast, information-theoretic entropy, introduced by Shannon, is a…

We develop new techniques for computing the metric entropy of ellipsoids -- with polynomially decaying semi-axes -- in Banach spaces. Besides leading to a unified and comprehensive framework, these tools deliver numerous novel results as…

We consider an isomorphism invariant for measure-preserving systems - types of generalized entropy convergence rates. We show the connections of this invariant with the types of Shannon entropy convergence rates. In the case when they…

We revisit textbook claims that entropy must increase and show that, under time-reversal invariant microscopic dynamics, no universal trajectory-wise or statistical assertion that the coarse-grained entropy $S(t)$ is non-decreasing can…

We establish three variational principles for the upper metric mean dimension with potential of level sets of continuous maps in terms of the entropy of partitions and Katok's entropy of the underlying system. Our results hold for dynamical…

The notion of matrix entropy was introduced by Tropp and Chen with the aim of measuring the fluctuations of random matrices. It is a certain entropy functional constructed from a representing function with prescribed properties, and Tropp…

Entropy is a concept that has traditionally been reliant on a definite notion of causality. However, without a definite notion of causality, the concept of entropy is not all lost. Indefinite causal structure results from combining…

We generalize the definition of topological entropy due to Adler, Konheim, and McAndrew \cite{AKM} to set-valued functions from a closed subset $A$ of the interval to closed subsets of the interval. We view these set-valued functions, via…

Entropy might be a not well defined concept if the system can undergo transformations involving stationary nonequilibria. It might be analogous to the heat content (once called ``caloric'') in transformations that are not isochoric (i.e.…

In 1997, Katok--Thouvenot and Ferenczi independently introduced a notion of ``slow entropy'' as a way to quantitatively compare measure-preserving systems with zero entropy. We develop a relative version of this theory for a…

Probabilistic models of random walks in random sceneries give rise to examples of probability-preserving dynamical systems. A point in the state spaces consists of a walk-trajectory and a scenery, and its `motion' corresponds to shifting…
