We consider the Student-t and Student-r distributions, which maximise Renyi entropy under a covariance condition. We show that they have information-theoretic properties which mirror those of the Gaussian distributions, which maximise…
The Renyi distribution ensuring the maximum of a Renyi entropy is investigated for a particular case of a power--law Hamiltonian. Both Lagrange parameters, $\alpha$ and $\beta$ can be excluded. It is found that $\beta$ does not depend on a…
Max stable laws are limit laws of linearly normalized partial maxima of independent identically distributed random variables. Saeb (2014) proves that the Renyi entropy of order b (b > 1) of linear normalized maximum of iid random variables…
In this paper the author analyses the weighted Renyi entropy in order to derive several inequalities in weighted case. Furthermore, using the proposed notions $\alpha$-th generalized derivation and ($\alpha$; p)-th weighted Fisher…
In this paper, we prove that the Renyi entropy of linearly normalized partial maxima of independent and identically distributed random variables is convergent to the corresponding limit Renyi entropy when the linearly normalized partial…
The equilibrium distributions of probabilities providing maximality of Renyi and Tsallis entropies are rederived. New S-forms of them are found which are normalised with corresponding entropies in contrast to the usual Z-forms normalised…

Shannon and Renyi entropies are quantitative measures of uncertainty in a data set. They are developed by Renyi in the context of entropy theory. These measures have been studied in the case of the multivariate t-distributions. We extend…
We consider the maximum entropy problems associated with R\'enyi $Q$-entropy, subject to two kinds of constraints on expected values. The constraints considered are a constraint on the standard expectation, and a constraint on the…
Using arguments built on ergodicity, we derive an analytical expression for the Renyi entanglement entropies corresponding to the finite-energy density eigenstates of chaotic many-body Hamiltonians. The expression is a universal function of…
Two maximization problems of R\'enyi entropy rate are investigated: the maximization over all stochastic processes whose marginals satisfy a linear constraint, and the Burg-like maximization over all stochastic processes whose…
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…
The classical problem of maximizing the Shannon entropy of a sum of independent random variables supported on a finite alphabet is considered and settled in the ternary case. Namely, the following theorem is established: if…
We investigate the large-time asymptotics of nonlinear diffusion equations $u_t = \Delta u^p$ in dimension $n \ge 1$, in the exponent interval $p > n/(n+2)$, when the initial datum $u_0$ is of bounded second moment. Precise rates of…
It is possible to derive the maximum entropy principle from thermodynamic stability requirements. Using as a starting point the equilibrium probability distribution, currently used in non-extensive thermostatistics, it turns out that the…
We address the problem of finding worst-case nonparametric bounds for T-statistic by considering the extremal problem of maximising the mid-quantile (a special case of 'smoothed quantile' as discussed in \cite{St77} and \cite{W11}) $\tilde…
In \cite{KumarS15J2}, it was shown that a generalized maximum likelihood estimation problem on a (canonical) $\alpha$-power-law model ($\mathbb{M}^{(\alpha)}$-family) can be solved by solving a system of linear equations. This was due to an…
It has long been conjectured that the entropy of quantum fields across boundaries scales as the boundary area. This conjecture has not been easy to test in spacetime dimensions greater than four because of divergences in the von Neumann…
We provide an upper bound on the maximal entropy rate at which the entropy of the expected density operator of a given ensemble of two states changes under nonlocal unitary evolution. A large class of entropy measures in considered, which…
