Let $0 < \epsilon < 1/2$ be a noise parameter, and let $T_{\epsilon}$ be the noise operator acting on functions on the boolean cube $\{0,1\}^n$. Let $f$ be a nonnegative function on $\{0,1\}^n$. We upper bound the entropy of $T_{\epsilon}…
Suppose $f : [0,1]^2 \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is a $(c,\alpha)$-mixed H\"older function that we sample at $l$ points $X_1,\ldots,X_l$ chosen uniformly at random from the unit square. Let the location of these points and the function values…
Building on work of Kontsevich, we introduce a definition of the entropy of a finite probability distribution in which the "probabilities" are integers modulo a prime p. The entropy, too, is an integer mod p. Entropy mod p is shown to be…
For a function $f$ over the discrete cube, the total $L_1$ influence of $f$ is defined as $\sum_{i=1}^n \|\partial_i f\|_1$, where $\partial_i f$ denotes the discrete derivative of $f$ in the direction $i$. In this work, we show that the…
Chater and MacKay [CM] derived an entropy function of state for exchange economies satisfying a list of axioms, and showed that a change of state of a system of such economies is possible if and only if their total entropy does not…
We study the periodic Ostrovsky-Hunter equation in the case where the flux function may depend on the spatial variable. Our main results are that if the flux function is twice differentiable, then there exists a unique entropy solution.…
It is shown, non--rigorously, that the effective action on a Z_q factored odd spheres (lune) has a vanishing derivative at q=1. This leaves the effective action on the ordinary odd d-sphere as (minus) the value of the entanglement entropy…
We deal with a problem of the reconstruction of any holomorphic function $f$ on the unit ball of $\mathbb{C}^2$ from its restricions on a union of complex lines. We give an explicit formula of Lagrange interpolation's type that is…
In this paper we show a new inequality which generalizes to the unit sphere the Lebedev-Milin inequality of the exponentiation of functions on the unit circle. It may also be regarded as the counterpart on the sphere of the second…
We consider a scalar conservation law with source in a bounded open interval $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb R$. The equation arises from the macroscopic evolution of an interacting particle system. The source term models an external effort driving…
Shannon entropy is widely used to quantify the uncertainty of discrete random variables. But when normalized to the unit interval, as is often done in practice, it no longer conveys the alphabet sizes of the random variables being studied.…
In this paper we give simple proofs for the bounds (some of them sharp) of the difference of the moduli of the second and the first logarithmic coefficient for the general class of univalent functions and for the class of convex univalent…
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…
The $f$-invariant is a notion of entropy for probability-measure-preserving actions of free groups. We show it is invariant under bounded orbit-equivalence.
Within the context of the entropic principle, we consider the entropy of supersymmetric black holes in N=2 supergravity theories in four dimensions with higher-curvature interactions, and we discuss its maximization at points in moduli…
A sofic approximation to a countable group is a sequence of partial actions on finite sets that asymptotically approximates the action of the group on itself by left-translations. A group is sofic if it admits a sofic approximation. Sofic…
We consider inductive limits of weighted spaces of holomorphic functions in the unit ball of $\mathbb C^n$. The relationship between sets of uniqueness, weakly sufficient sets and sampling sets in these spaces is studied. In particular, the…
Building on a general variational framework for multi-fluid dynamics, we discuss finite temperature effects in superfluids. The main aim is to provide insight into the modelling of more complex finite temperature superfluid systems, like…
Recently Lewis Bowen introduced a notion of entropy for measure-preserving actions of a countable sofic group on a standard probability space admitting a generating partition with finite entropy. By applying an operator algebra perspective…
Consanguinity of entropy and complexity is pointed out through the example of coherent states of the group $SL(d+1,\C)$. Both are obtained from the K\"ahler potential of the underlying geometry of the sphere corresponding to the…
