We prove that intersections and unions of independent random sets in finite spaces achieve a form of Lipschitz continuity. More precisely, given the distribution of a random set $\Xi$, the function mapping any random set distribution to the…

Entropic tilting (ET) is a Bayesian decision-analytic method for constraining distributions to satisfy defined targets or bounds for sets of expectations. This report recapitulates the foundations and basic theory of ET for conditioning…

We are concerned with the problem of determining the damping boundary coefficient appearing in a dissipative wave equation from a single boundary measurement. We prove that the uniqueness holds at the origin provided that the initial…

By developing the entropy theory of random walks on equivalence relations and analyzing the asymptotic geometry of horospheric products we describe the Poisson boundary for random walks on random horospheric products of trees.

In this article, we study strictly elliptic, second-order differential operators on a bounded Lipschitz domain in $\mathbb{R}^d$, subject to certain non-local Wentzell-Robin boundary conditions. We prove that such operators generate…

Let $X$ be a discrete random variable with support $S$ and $f : S \to S^\prime$ be a bijection. Then it is well-known that the entropy of $X$ is the same as the entropy of $f(X)$. This entropy preservation property has been well-utilized to…

Entropy and differential entropy are important quantities in information theory. A tractable extension to singular random variables-which are neither discrete nor continuous-has not been available so far. Here, we present such an extension…

We explore an asymptotic behavior of entropies for sums of independent random variables that are convolved with a small continuous noise.

We consider the controllability problem for the continuity equation, corresponding to neural ordinary differential equations (ODEs), which describes how a probability measure is pushedforward by the flow. We show that the controlled…

A definition of entropy via the Kolmogorov algorithmic complexity is discussed. As examples, we show how the meanfield theory for the Ising model, and the entropy of a perfect gas can be recovered. The connection with computations are…

We consider a one parameter family of Lorenz maps indexed by their point of discontinuity $p$ and constructed from a pair of bilipschitz functions. We prove that their topological entropies vary continuously as a function of $p$ and discuss…

We consider a Brownian particle in a harmonic trap. The location of the trap is modulated according to an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. We investigate the fluctuation of the work done by the modulated trap on the Brownian particle in a given…

Perturbation theory can be reformulated as dynamical theory. Then a sequence of perturbative approximations is bijective to a trajectory of dynamical system with discrete time, called the approximation cascade. Here we concentrate our…

We introduce the notion of conditional Lipschitz shadowing, which does not aim to shadow every pseudo-orbit, but only those which belong to a certain prescribed set. We establish two types of sufficient conditions under which certain…

We develop a theory of existence and uniqueness of solutions of MFG master equations when the initial condition is Lipschitz continuous. Namely, we show that as long as the solution of the master equation is Lipschitz continuous in space,…
