In this paper, we introduce a particular class of matrices. We study the concept of a matrix to be \emph{balanced}. We study some properties of this concept in the context of matrix operations. We examine the behaviour of various matrix…

We show that, in 't Hooft's large N limit, matrix models can be formulated as a classical theory whose equations of motion are the factorized Schwinger--Dyson equations. We discover an action principle for this classical theory. This action…

Entropy rate of sequential data-streams naturally quantifies the complexity of the generative process. Thus entropy rate fluctuations could be used as a tool to recognize dynamical perturbations in signal sources, and could potentially be…

Let $X$ be a discrete random variable with support $S$ and $f : S \to S^\prime$ be a bijection. Then it is well-known that the entropy of $X$ is the same as the entropy of $f(X)$. This entropy preservation property has been well-utilized to…

We define and study a relative free entropy quantity, analogous in its properties to Voiculescu's relative free entropy Chi^*(...:B). Our definition uses matricial microstates, unlike his definition, which involves non-commutative Hilbert…

Transfer entropy is used to establish a measure of causal relationships between two variables. Symbolic transfer entropy, as an estimation method for transfer entropy, is widely applied due to its robustness against non-stationarity. This…

The phenomenon of entropy concentration provides strong support for the maximum entropy method, MaxEnt, for inferring a probability vector from information in the form of constraints. Here we extend this phenomenon, in a discrete setting,…
