We study intermediate sums, interpolating between integrals and discrete sums, which were introduced by A. Barvinok [Computing the Ehrhart quasi-polynomial of a rational simplex, Math. Comp. 75 (2006), 1449--1466]. For a given semi-rational…
In this note we show that sharp Kolmogorov-type inequalities that estimate the uniform norm $\|f^{(k)}\|$ of the $k$-th derivative of a function $f\colon \mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ by the values of the uniform norm of $f$ and uniform norms of…
Given a $k$-self similar set $X\subset [0,1]^{d}$ we calculate both its Hausdorff dimension and its entropy, and show that these two quantities are in fact equal. This affirmatively resolves a conjecture of Adamczewski and Bell.
The notions of fair measure and fair entropy were introduced by Misiurewicz and Rodrigues recently, and discussed in detail for piecewise monotone interval maps. In particular, they showed that the fair entropy $h(a)$ of the tent map $f_a$,…
We present novel and sharp lower bounds for higher load moments in the classical problem of mapping $M$ balls into $N$ bins by $q$-universal hashing, specialized to the case when $M=N$. As a corollary we prove a tight counterpart for the…
We investigate the joint moments of the 2k-th power of the characteristic polynomial of random unitary matrices with the 2h-th power of the derivative of this same polynomial. We prove that for a fixed h, the moments are given by rational…
We study the arctanh sums h(k) = sum_{n=2}^\infty arctanh(n^{-k}) as a function of a complex variable k. Building on the closed-form identity h(k) = (1/2) log(g(2k)/g(k)^2) (proved in the companion preprint arXiv:2602.06244), we develop the…
We consider the differential entropy of probability measures absolutely continuous with respect to a given $\sigma$-finite reference measure on an arbitrary measurable space. We state the asymptotic equipartition property in this general…
New and old results on closed polynomials, i.e., such polynomials f in K[x_1,...,x_n] that the subalgebra K[f] is integrally closed in K[x_1,...,x_n], are collected. Using some properties of closed polynomials we prove the following…
Let A be a finitely presented associative monomial algebra. We study the category qgr(A) which is a quotient of the category of graded finitely presented A-modules by the finite-dimensional ones. As this category plays a role of the…
Along recent decades, an intensive worldwide research activity is focusing both black holes and cosmos (e.g. the dark-energy phenomenon) on the basis of entropic approaches. The Boltzmann-Gibbs-based Bekenstein-Hawking entropy…
An extension of the entropy power inequality to the form $N_r^\alpha(X+Y) \geq N_r^\alpha(X) + N_r^\alpha(Y)$ with arbitrary independent summands $X$ and $Y$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is obtained for the R\'enyi entropy and powers $\alpha \geq…
Shearer's inequality bounds the sum of joint entropies of random variables in terms of the total joint entropy. We give another lower bound for the same sum in terms of the individual entropies when the variables are functions of…
Root-finding method is an iterative process that constructs a sequence converging to a solution of an equation. Householder's method is a higher-order method that requires higher order derivatives of the reciprocal of a function and has…
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…
From analysis of a big variety of different knots we conclude that at q which is an root of unity, q^{2m}=1, HOMFLY polynomials in symmetric representations [r] satisfy recursion identity: H_{r+m} = H_r H_m for any A, which is a…
In this work we analyze the entropic properties of the Euler equations when the system is closed with the assumption of a polytropic gas. In this case, the pressure solely depends upon the density of the fluid and the energy equation is not…
In this paper, we consider the value distribution of the differential polynomials $f^2f^{(k)}-1$ where $k$ is a positive integer, and obtain some estimates only by the reduced counting function. Our result answers a question in (Some…
We revisit entropy methods to prove new sharp trace logarithmic Sobolev and sharp Gagliardo-Nirenberg-Sobolev inequalities on the half space, with a focus on the entropy inequality itself and not the actual flow, allowing for somewhat…
We study holographic entanglement entropy for certain logarithmic conformal field theories by making use of their gravity descriptions. The corresponding gravity descriptions are provided by higher derivative gravity at critical points…
