Lower bounds for the R\'enyi entropies of sums of independent random variables taking values in cyclic groups of prime order under permutations are established. The main ingredients of our approach are extended rearrangement inequalities in…
We derive new inequalities for the probabilities of projective measurements in mutually unbiased bases of a qudit system. These inequalities lead to wider ranges of validity and tighter bounds on entropic uncertainty inequalities previously…
We prove new results, related to the Littlewood and Mixed Littlewood conjectures in Diophantine approximation.
This note reviews the studies of the last decades emphasizing a common principle based on entropy, logarithmic Sobolev inequality and hypercontractivity, behind four most celebrated inequalities by M. Talagrand: the convex distance…
We provide a unifying axiomatics for Renyi's entropy and non-extensive entropy of Tsallis. It is shown that the resulting entropy coincides with Csiszar's measure of directed divergence known from communication theory.
We establish results with an arithmetic flavor that generalize the polynomial multidimensional Szemeredi theorem and related multiple recurrence and convergence results in ergodic theory. For instance, we show that in all these statements…
The Shannon entropy is used as a basis for applying different lemmas and conjectures concerning the set of gaps between prime numbers G_p , thus estimating several measures of it. The same procedures are applied to artificially created…
Inequalities for exponential sums are studied. Our results improve an old result of G. Halasz and a recent result of G. Kos. We prove several other essentially sharp related results in this paper.
Various lower bounds are established for the entropy of sums, products and their combinations. First, we derive a prime-field analogue of a version of the entropy power inequality established by Tao over torsion-free groups. Next, we prove…
We study an inequality suggested by Littlewood, our result refines a result of Bennett.
The paper reexamines an argument by Talagrand that leads to a remarkable exponential tail bound for the concentration of probability near a set. The main novelty is the replacement of a mysterious Calculus inequality by an application of…
We consider the problem of approximating a given element $f$ from a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ by means of greedy algorithms and the application of such procedures to the regression problem in statistical learning theory. We improve on the…
The entropy power inequality for independent random vectors is a foundational result of information theory, with deep connections to probability and geometric functional analysis. Several extensions of the entropy power inequality have been…
In order to reconcile the entropy reduction of a system through external interventions that are linked to a measurement with the second law of thermodynamics, there are two main proposals: (i) The entropy reduction is compensated by the…
We give a very simple proof of a strengthened version of Chernoff's Inequality. We derive the same conclusion from much weaker assumptions.
A mathematical interpretation of the usual definition of entropy (for a discrete probability distribution or a trace 1 positive operator) is given. This formulation makes some properties of entropy immediate.
This note contributes to the understanding of generalized entropy power inequalities. Our main goal is to construct a counter-example regarding monotonicity and entropy comparison of weighted sums of independent identically distributed…
This paper introduces "swiveled Renyi entropies" as an alternative to the Renyi entropic quantities put forward in [Berta et al., Phys. Rev. A 91, 022333 (2015)]. What distinguishes the swiveled Renyi entropies from the prior proposal of…
We offer a conjecture on sharp estimation of a definite improper integral depend on a parameter $\lambda \in (0,+\infty)$ by means of given estimate of other definite integral depend on parameters $t\in [0,+\infty)$ and $\lambda$. Such…
Entropy notions for $\varepsilon$-incremental practical stability and incremental stability of deterministic nonlinear systems under disturbances are introduced. The entropy notions are constructed via a set of points in state space which…
