We provide a quantification of the uniqueness of Gibbs measure for topologically mixing countable Markov shifts with locally H\"older continuous potentials. Corollaries for speed of convergence for approximation by finite subsystems are…
In [6], a constraint on invariant measures of bi-permutative cellular automata has been observed: fixed values at the positive indices determine almost-surely a uniform conditional probability on the subset of values of positive conditional…
Ergodic theory includes several notions of entropy for probability-preserving actions of countable groups. These include Kolmogorov--Sinai entropy based on F\o lner sequences for amenable groups, entropy defined using a random ordering of…
We consider Glauber dynamics reversible with respect to Gibbs measures with heavy tails. Spins are unbounded. The interactions are bounded and finite range. The self potential enters into two classes of measures, $\kappa$-concave…
Shannon and Khinchin showed that assuming four information theoretic axioms the entropy must be of Boltzmann-Gibbs type, $S=-\sum_i p_i \log p_i$. Here we note that in physical systems one of these axioms may be violated. For non-ergodic…
We investigate the limit behaviour of the spectral measures of matrices following the Gibbs measure for the Ising model on random graphs, Potts model on random graphs, matrices coupled in a chain model or induced QCD model. For most of…
Given a finite-to-one map acting on a compact metric space, one classically constructs for each potential in an appropriate Banach space of functionsa transfer operator acting on functions. Under suitable condition, the…
Let K be a self-similar or self-affine set in R^d, let \mu be a self-similar or self-affine measure on it, and let G be the group of affine maps, similitudes, isometries or translations of R^d. Under various assumptions (such as separation…
We present a simple combinatorial framework for establishing approximate tensorization of variance and entropy in the setting of spin systems (a.k.a. undirected graphical models) based on balanced separators of the underlying graph. Such…
We extend the probabilistic approach for constructing Kahler-Einstein metrics on log Fano manifolds X - involving random point processes - to the case of non-discrete automorphism groups, by breaking the symmetry using a moment map…
We prove that the (necessarily existing) pseudo-physical or SRB-like measures of C1 expanding dynamical systems on a compact Riemannian manifold satisfy Pesin entropy formula. We include examples of C1 (non C1 plus Holder) expanding maps on…
We study a class of dynamical systems generated by random substitutions, which contains both intrinsically ergodic systems and instances with several measures of maximal entropy. In this class, we show that the measures of maximal entropy…
We prove that certain Gibbs measures on subshifts of finite type are nonsingular and ergodic for certain countable equivalence relations, including the orbit relation of the adic transformation (the same as equality after a permutation of…
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…
Motivated by the notion of topological entropy for free semigroup actions introduced by Bi\'s, we define the Pesin--Pitskel topological pressure for non-autonomous iterated function systems via the Carath\'eodory--Pesin structure. We show…
We study a model of spatial random permutations over a discrete set of points. Formally, a permutation $\sigma$ is sampled proportionally to the weight $\exp\{-\alpha \sum_x V(\sigma(x)-x)\},$ where $\alpha>0$ is the temperature and $V$ is…
We revisit the well-studied problem of estimating the Shannon entropy of a probability distribution, now given access to a probability-revealing conditional sampling oracle. In this model, the oracle takes as input the representation of a…
We formulate uncertainty relations for mutually unbiased bases and symmetric informationally complete measurements in terms of the R\'{e}nyi and Tsallis entropies. For arbitrary number of mutually unbiased bases in a finite-dimensional…
The Gibbs measures of a spin system on $Z^d$ with unbounded pair interactions $J_{xy} \sigma (x) \sigma (y)$ are studied. Here $\langle x, y \rangle \in E $, i.e. $x$ and $y$ are neighbors in $Z^d$. The intensities $J_{xy}$ and the spins…
