We give a new type of sufficient condition for the existence of measures with maximal entropy for an interval map $f$, using some non-uniform hyperbolicity to compensate for a lack of smoothness of $f$. More precisely, if the topological…
We derive a measurement-independent asymptotic continuity bound on the observational entropy for general POVM measurements, making essential use of its property of bounded concavity. The same insight is used to obtain continuity bounds for…
Assuming $\mathfrak b = \mathfrak c$ (or some weaker statement), we construct a compactification $\gamma\omega$ of $\omega$ such that its remainder $\gamma\omega\setminus\omega$ is nonseparable and carries a strictly positive measure.
Strassen's classical martingale coupling theorem states that two real-valued random variables are ordered in the convex (resp.\ increasing convex) stochastic order if and only if they admit a martingale (resp.\ submartingale) coupling. By…
This dissertation will serve as an introduction to entanglement quantification, containing highly detailed proofs ensuring solid understanding of the subject. Specifically, we will review the properties of entanglement that should be…
We describe a statistical test for association of two autocorrelated time series, one of which generated randomly at each time point from a known but possibly history-dependent distribution. The null hypothesis is that at each time point,…
We look at the maximal entropy (MME) measure of the boundaries of connected components of the Fatou set of a rational map of degree greater than or equal to 2. We show that if there are infinitely many Fatou components, and if either the…
For one-dimensional diffusions on the half-line, we study a specific type of conditioning to avoid zero. We introduce supermartingales defined via concave functions with respect to the scale function. A conditioning is formulated through…
The aim of this article is to establish basic results in a conditional measure theory. The results are applied to prove that arbitrary kernels and conditional distributions are represented by measures in a conditional set theory. In…
We address the extension problem for quantal measures of path-integral type, concentrating on two cases: sequential growth of causal sets, and a particle moving on the finite lattice Z_n. In both cases the dynamics can be coded into a…
In this paper we provide a sufficient condition for a Furstenberg measure generated by a finitely supported measure to be absolutely continuous. Using this, we give a very broad class of examples of absolutely continuous Furstenberg…
Protocols have been previously proposed to certify the presence of an entangled measurement in a fully device-independent manner. Here, I provide models for these protocols in which the claimed measurement is not entangled, and demonstrate…
We give conditions ensuring that the Fatou set and the complement of the fast escaping set of an exponential polynomial $f$ have finite Lebesgue measure. Essentially, these conditions are designed such that $|f(z)|\ge\exp(|z|^\alpha)$ for…
The hypothesis of randomness is fundamental in statistical machine learning and in many areas of nonparametric statistics; it says that the observations are assumed to be independent and coming from the same unknown probability…
We consider the one-parameter family of interval maps arising from generalized continued fraction expansions known as alpha-continued fractions. For such maps, we perform a numerical study of the behaviour of metric entropy as a function of…
Recently a class of generalized information measures was defined on sets of items parametrized by submodular functions. In this paper, we propose and study various notions of independence between sets with respect to such information…
We present necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a countably additive measure on a complete Boolean algebra.
We introduce probability estimation, a broadly applicable framework to certify randomness in a finite sequence of measurement results without assuming that these results are independent and identically distributed. Probability estimation…
A semi-measure is a generalization of a probability measure obtained by relaxing the additivity requirement to super-additivity. We introduce and study several randomness notions for left-c.e. semi-measures, a natural class of effectively…
This papers addresses the stock option pricing problem in a continuous time market model where there are two stochastic tradable assets, and one of them is selected as a num\'eraire. It is shown that the presence of arbitrarily small…
