Preserving biodiversity and ecosystem stability is a challenge that can be pursued through modern statistical mechanics modeling. Here we introduce a variational maximum entropy-based algorithm to evaluate the entropy in a minimal ecosystem…
Entropic independence is a structural property of measures that underlies modern proofs of functional inequalities, notably (modified) log-Sobolev inequalities, via ``annealing'' or local-to-global schemes. Existing sufficient criteria for…
Entropy, its production, and its change in a dynamical system can be understood from either a fully stochastic dynamic description or from a deterministic dynamics exhibiting chaotic behavior. By taking the former approach based on the…
Given an integer $k \geq 5$, and a $C^k$ Anosov flow $\Phi$ on some compact connected $3$-manifold preserving a smooth volume, we show that the measure of maximal entropy (MME) is the volume measure if and only if $\Phi$ is…
There is a commonly recognized paradigm in which a multipartite quantum system described by a density matrix having no product eigenbasis is considered to possess nonclassical correlation. Supporting this paradigm, we define two entropic…
We study the continuity of the maximum-entropy inference map for two observables in finite dimensions. We prove that the continuity is equivalent to the strong continuity of the set-valued inverse numerical range map. This gives a…
The aim of this note is to introduce a notion of dynamical entropy, which we call infinite-product entropy, for probability measures on (countable) infinite cartesian product of any measurable space with itself. The idea behind the…
We present two sets of computable entanglement measures for multipartite systems where each subsystem can have different degrees of freedom (so-called qudits). One set, called 'separability' measure, reveals which of the subsystems are…
In 1994, Ittai Kan provided the first examples of maps with intermingled basins. The Kan example corresponds to a partially hyperbolic endomorphism defined on a surface with the boundary exhibiting two intermingled hyperbolic physical…
Maximum Entropy is a powerful concept that entails a sharp separation between relevant and irrelevant variables. It is typically invoked in inference, once an assumption is made on what the relevant variables are, in order to estimate a…
Let f be a meromorphic correspondence on a compact Kahler manifold. We show that the topological entropy of f is bounded from above by the logarithm of its maximal dynamical degree. An analogous estimate for the entropy on subvarieties is…
Entropy is a very useful concept from physics that tries to explain how a system behaves from a point of view of the thermodynamics. However, there are two ways to explain entropy, and it depends on if we are studying a microsystem or a…
Permutation entropy quantifies the diversity of possible orderings of the values a random or deterministic system can take, as Shannon entropy quantifies the diversity of values. We show that the metric and permutation entropy…
Close connections between various notions of entropy and the apparatus of category theory have been observed already in the 1980s and more vigorously developed in the past ten years. The starting point of the paper is the recent categorical…
The entanglement entropy of a pure quantum state of a bipartite system is defined as the von Neumann entropy of the reduced density matrix obtained by tracing over one of the two parts. Critical ground states of local Hamiltonians in one…
Thermodynamic entropy is determined by a heat measurement through the Clausius equality. The entropy then formalizes a fundamental limitation of operations by the second law of thermodynamics. The entropy is also expressed as the Shannon…
Let $f$ be an endomorphism of $\mathbb{CP}^k$ and $\nu$ be an $f$-invariant measure with positive Lyapunov exponents $(\lambda_1,\...,\lambda_k)$. We prove a lower bound for the pointwise dimension of $\nu$ in terms of the degree of $f$,…
Let $f$ be a holomorphic map of $\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^2$ of degree $d\geq 2$, let $T$ be its Green current and $\mu=T\wedge T$ be its equilibrium measure. We give a new proof of a theorem due to Dujardin asserting that $\mu \ll…
In a paper [8] the authors classify entropy into three categories, as a thermodynamics quantity, as a measure of information production, and as a means of statistical inference. An entropy measure introduced by Mathai falls into the second…
We revisit the maximum-entropy inference of the state of a finite-level quantum system under linear constraints. The constraints are specified by the expected values of a set of fixed observables. We point out the existence of…
