We examine the Kerr/CFT correspondence in Einstein gravity extended with quadratic curvature invariants. We consider two explicit examples in four and five dimensions and compute the central charges of the asymptotic symmetry algebras of…
In a quantum gravity theory the entropy of entanglement $S$ between the fundamental degrees of freedom spatially divided by a surface is discussed. The classical gravity is considered as an emergent phenomenon and arguments are presented…
This paper elucidates the connection between the KS entropy-rate kappa and the time evolution of the physical or statistical entropy S. For a large family of chaotic conservative dynamical systems including the simplest ones, the evolution…
One of the few accepted dynamical foundations of non-additive "non-extensive") statistical mechanics is that the choice of the appropriate entropy functional describing a system with many degrees of freedom should reflect the rate of growth…
The Hubeny-Rangamani-Takayanagi surface $\gamma_{HRT}$ computing the entropy $S(D)$ of a domain of dependence $D$ on an asymptotically AdS boundary is known to be causally inaccessible from $D$. We generalize this gravitational result to…
Let $Z$ be a Boolean model based on a stationary Poisson process $\eta$ of compact, convex particles in Euclidean space ${\mathbb{R}}^d$. Let $W$ denote a compact, convex observation window. For a large class of functionals $\psi$, formulas…
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…
In the Entropic Dynamics (ED) approach the essence of quantum theory lies in its probabilistic nature while the Hilbert space structure plays a secondary and ultimately optional role. The dynamics of probability distributions is driven by…
The first aims of this work are to endorse the advent of finitely additive set functions as equilibrium states and the possibility to replace the metric entropy by an upper semi-continuous map associated to a general variational principle.…
In this paper, we prove that for the doubly symmetric binary distribution, the lower increasing envelope and the upper envelope of the minimum-relative-entropy region are respectively convex and concave. We also prove that another function…
We give a notion of entropy for general gemetric structures, which generalizes well-known notions of topological entropy of vector fields and geometric entropy of foliations, and which can also be applied to singular objects, e.g. singular…
We generalize the usual exponential Boltzmann factor to any reasonable and potentially observable distribution function, $B(E)$. By defining generalized logarithms $\Lambda$ as inverses of these distribution functions, we are led to a…
We study the entropy production of Gibbs (equilibrium) measures for chaotic dynamical systems with folding of the phase space. The dynamical chaotic model is that generated by a hyperbolic non-invertible map $f$ on a general basic (possibly…
The Lin-Maldacena geometries are nonsingular gravity duals to degenerate vacuum states of a family of field theories with SU(2|4) supersymmetry. In this note, we show that at large N, where the number of vacuum states is large, there is a…
Motivated by the group entropy theory, in this work we generalize the algebra of real numbers (that we called G-algebra), from which we develop an associated G-differential calculus. Thus, the algebraic structures corresponding to the…
We perform the Hamiltonian constraint analysis for a wide class of gravity theories that are invariant under spatial diffeomorphism. With very general setup, we show that different from the general relativity, the primary and secondary…
Increasing the number $N$ of elements of a system typically makes the entropy to increase. The question arises on {\it what particular entropic form} we have in mind and {\it how it increases} with $N$. Thermodynamically speaking it makes…
The variational capacity cap_p in Euclidean spaces is known to enjoy the density dichotomy at large scales, namely that for every subset E of R^n, inf_{x in R^n} (cap_p(E \cap B(x,r),B(x,2r)) / cap_p(B(x,r),B(x,2r))) is either zero or tends…
We study the convergence to equilibrium of a class of nonlinear recombination models. In analogy with Boltzmann's H theorem from kinetic theory, and in contrast with previous analysis of these models, convergence is measured in terms of…
A comparative study of one-dimensional quantum structures which allow analytic expressions for the position and momentum R\'{e}nyi $R(\alpha)$ and Tsallis $T(\alpha)$ entropies, focuses on extracting the most characteristic physical…
