Let $\lambda_{max}$ be a shifted maximal real eigenvalue of a random $N\times N$ matrix with independent $N(0,1)$ entries (the `real Ginibre matrix') in the $N\to\infty$ limit. It was shown by Poplavskyi, Tribe, Zaboronski \cite{PZT} that…

We present a new class of estimators of Shannon entropy for severely undersampled discrete distributions. It is based on a generalization of an estimator proposed by T. Schuermann, which itself is a generalization of an estimator proposed…

This paper proposes a new method for estimating the joint probability mass function of a pair of discrete random variables. This estimator is used to construct joint Shannon R\'enyi-Tsallis entropies, and the mutual information estimates of…

Based on the work of Chen and Its [{\em J. Approx. Theory} {\bf 162} ({2010}) {270--297}], we further study orthogonal polynomials with respect to the singularly perturbed Laguerre weight $w(x;t,\alpha) = {x^\alpha}{\mathrm e^{-…

Let $L$ be an analytic Jordan curve and let $\{p_n(z)\}_{n=0}^\infty$ be the sequence of polynomials that are orthonormal with respect to the area measure over the interior of $L$. A well-known result of Carleman states that \label{eq12}…

Relations between Shannon entropy and Renyi entropies of integer order are discussed. For any N-point discrete probability distribution for which the Renyi entropies of order two and three are known, we provide an lower and an upper bound…

Generalized Jacobi polynomials are orthogonal polynomials related to a weight function which is smooth and positive on the whole interval of orthogonality up to a finite number of points, where algebraic singularities occur. The influence…

Shannon entropy for discrete distributions is a fundamental and widely used concept, but its continuous analogue, known as differential entropy, lacks essential properties such as positivity and compatibility with the discrete case. In this…

The behavior of the Kozachenko - Leonenko estimates for the (differential) Shannon entropy is studied when the number of i.i.d. vector-valued observations tends to infinity. The asymptotic unbiasedness and L^2-consistency of the estimates…
