In this paper, we study connections between the structure of a group and the structure of the group (under pointwise product) of its polynomial functions.
We consider the maximum entropy problems associated with R\'enyi $Q$-entropy, subject to two kinds of constraints on expected values. The constraints considered are a constraint on the standard expectation, and a constraint on the…
When humans perform inductive learning, they often enhance the process with background knowledge. With the increasing availability of well-formed collaborative knowledge bases, the performance of learning algorithms could be significantly…
Entropy functionals (i.e. convex integral functionals) and extensions of these functionals are minimized on convex sets. This paper is aimed at reducing as much as possible the assumptions on the constraint set. Dual equalities and…
The entropy of a graph is an information-theoretic quantity which expresses the complexity of a graph \cite{DM1,M}. After Shannon introduced the definition of entropy to information and communication, many generalizations of the entropy…
Intrinsic motivations are receiving increasing attention, i.e. behavioral incentives that are not engineered, but emerge from the interaction of an agent with its surroundings. In this work we study the emergence of behaviors driven by one…
We propose a means to relate properties of an interconnected system to its separate component systems in the presence of cascade-like phenomena. Building on a theory of interconnection reminiscent of the behavioral approach to systems…
The uniqueness theorem for a two-parameter extended relative entropy is proven. This result extends our previous one, the uniqueness theorem for a one-parameter extended relative entropy, to a two-parameter case. In addition, the properties…
We define some pointwise properties of topological dynamical systems and give pointwise conditions for such a system possesses positive topological entropy. We give sufficient conditions to obtain positive topological entropy for maps which…
A general theoretical framework based on group-subgroup and group-supergroup relations is proposed to describe and to derive interpenetrating nets.
This paper provides some first steps in developing empirical process theory for functions taking values in a vector space. Our main results provide bounds on the entropy of classes of smooth functions taking values in a Hilbert space, by…
Human dynamical social networks encode information and are highly adaptive. To characterize the information encoded in the fast dynamics of social interactions, here we introduce the entropy of dynamical social networks. By analysing a…
We study in this paper real-valued functions on the space of all sub-$\sigma$-algebras of a probability measure space, and introduce the notion of Kudo-continuity, which is an a priori strengthening of continuity with respect to strong…
Entropy rate is a real valued functional on the space of discrete random sources which lacks a closed formula even for subclasses of sources which have intuitive parameterizations. A good way to overcome this problem is to examine its…
In this paper, we introduce the notions of lowerable, D-lowerable, P-lowerable, hereditarily lowerable, and hereditarily uniformly lowerable for countably infinite amenable group actions. We show that a system with finite entropy is…
This paper presents an approach to expert-guided subgroup discovery. The main step of the subgroup discovery process, the induction of subgroup descriptions, is performed by a heuristic beam search algorithm, using a novel parametrized…
In animal groups, individual decisions are best characterised by probabilistic rules. Furthermore, animals of many species live in small groups. Probabilistic interactions among small numbers of individuals lead to a so called intrinsic…
Group Theory has become an invaluable tool in the physics community. Despite numerous introductory books, the subject remains challenging for beginners. Mathematica has emerged as a popular tool for research and education, offering various…
We present a natural extension of the process of taking a group quotient to arbitrary subgroups. We first review basic concepts from group theory. This will allow us to see the relationship between our new, more general quotient operation…
By making use of the entropy function formalism we study the generalized attractor equations in the four dimensional N=2 supergravity in presence of higher order corrections. This result might be used to understand a possible ensemble one…
