The entropy of a graph was first introduced by Rashevsky \cite{Rashevsky} and Trucco \cite{Trucco} to interpret as the structural information content of the graph and serve as a complexity measure. In this paper, we first state a number of…

Loosely speaking, the Shannon entropy rate is used to gauge a stochastic process' intrinsic randomness; the statistical complexity gives the cost of predicting the process. We calculate, for the first time, the entropy rate and statistical…
