We consider a self-gravitating system consisting of perfect fluid with spherical symmetry. Using the general expression of entropy density, we extremize the total entropy $S$ under the constraint that the total number of particles is fixed.…

We establish a new global endpoint Sobolev inequality for measures that extends the classical theorem of Meyers-Ziemer by placing a maximal function on the right-hand side. This result has several significant consequences. It extends…

We construct measures of maximal $u$-entropy for any partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism that factors over an Anosov torus automorphism and has mostly contracting center direction. The space of such measures has a finite dimension, and its…

We develop new techniques for computing the metric entropy of ellipsoids -- with polynomially decaying semi-axes -- in Banach spaces. Besides leading to a unified and comprehensive framework, these tools deliver numerous novel results as…

To calculate the entropy of a subalgebra or of a channel with respect to a state, one has to solve an intriguing optimalization problem. The latter is also the key part in the entanglement of formation concept, in which case the subalgebra…

We analyse certain degenerate infinite dimensional sub-elliptic generators, and obtain estimates on the long-time behaviour of the corresponding Markov semigroups that describe a certain model of heat conduction. In particular, we establish…

We study maximum-entropy inference for finite-dimensional quantum states under linear moment constraints. Given expectation values of finitely many observables, the feasible set of states is convex but typically non-unique. The…

In this note we lay some groundwork for the resource theory of thermodynamics in general probabilistic theories (GPTs). We consider theories satisfying a purely convex abstraction of the spectral decomposition of density matrices: that…

We give an equivalent condition for the existence of invariant Gibbs measures for sequences of continuous functions on one-sided subshifts and, more generally, for the existence of Gibbs measures. These extend the results of Kim [6] and…

In this article, we pay attention to transitive dynamical systems having the shadowing property and the entropy functions are upper semicontinuous. As for these dynamical systems, when we consider ergodic optimization restricted on the…

In this paper, we extend the concept of generalized entropy to uniform spaces, allowing computations beyond metrizable settings. We apply this to parabolic dynamics - systems with a unique fixed point uniformly attracting all compact…

We study the continuity of an abstract generalization of the maximum-entropy inference - a maximizer. It is defined as a right-inverse of a linear map restricted to a convex body which uniquely maximizes on each fiber of the linear map a…
