Entropy numbers and covering numbers of sets and operators are well known geometric notions, which found many applications in various fields of mathematics, statistics, and computer science. Their values for finite-dimensional embeddings…
These notes arose from my Cambridge Part III course on Additive Combinatorics, given in Lent Term 2009. The aim was to understand the simplest proof of the Bourgain-Glibichuk-Konyagin bounds for exponential sums over subgroups. As a…
This paper has a flaw in an argument that uses the weak-* convergence of measures. The paper was replaced by "Entropy and Its Variational Principle for Locally Compact Metrizable Systems", by the same authors.
This article deals with the error estimates for numerical approximations of the entropy solutions of coupled systems of nonlocal hyperbolic conservation laws. The systems can be strongly coupled through the nonlocal coefficient present in…
We have presented first an axiomatic derivation of Boltzmann entropy on the basis of two axioms consistent with two basic properties of thermodynamic entropy. We have then studied the relationship between Boltzmann entropy and information…
In this paper we estimate the rest of the approximation of a stationary process by a martingale in terms of the projections of partial sums. Then, based on this estimate, we obtain almost sure approximation of partial sums by a martingale…
Observational entropy provides a general notion of quantum entropy that appropriately interpolates between Boltzmann's and Gibbs' entropies, and has recently been argued to provide a useful measure of out-of-equilibrium thermodynamic…
This is a short analysis of the changes in the concept of entropy as applied to physics of the present-day and Early Universe. Of special interest is a leading role of such a notion as deformation of a physical theory. The relation to a…
We present simple and computationally efficient nonparametric estimators of R\'enyi entropy and mutual information based on an i.i.d. sample drawn from an unknown, absolutely continuous distribution over $\R^d$. The estimators are…
Clarke and Barron analysed the relative entropy between an i.i.d. source and a Bayesian mixture over a continuous class containing that source. In this paper a comparable result is obtained when the source is permitted to be both…
Consider the set of all sequences of $n$ outcomes, each taking one of $m$ values, that satisfy a number of linear constraints. If $m$ is fixed while $n$ increases, most sequences that satisfy the constraints result in frequency vectors…
This manuscript includes some classical results we select apart from the new results we've found on the Analysis of Boolean Functions and Fourier-Entropy-Influence conjecture. We try to ensure the self-completeness of this work so that…
This paper provides tight bounds on the R\'enyi entropy of a function of a discrete random variable with a finite number of possible values, where the considered function is not one-to-one. To that end, a tight lower bound on the R\'enyi…
The paper mentioned in the title introduces the entropic value at risk. I give some extra comments and using the general theory make a relation with some commonotone risk measures.
We present a unified approach to extensions of Bourgain's Double Recurrence Theorem and Bourgain's Return Times Theorem to integer parts of the Kronecker sequence, emphasizing stopping times and metric entropy. Specifically, we prove the…
We present a general framework for the approximation of systems of hyperbolic balance laws. The novelty of the analysis lies in the construction of suitable relaxation systems and the derivation of a delicate estimate on the relative…
The paper is mostly a survey on recent results in Diophantine approximation, with emphasis on properties of exponents measuring various notions of Diophantine <approximation.
I review some basic facts about entropy bounds in general and about cosmological entropy bounds. Then I review the Causal Entropy Bound, the conditions for its validity and its application to the study of cosmological singularities. This…
This is an English (annotated) translation of the German paper by Max Planck (1916) "On the absolute entropy of monatomic bodies" (\"Uber die absolute Entropie einatomiger K\"orper).
The following is a concise exposition of the conjecture and three of its proofs for the case of positive entropy by D. Rudolph [22] , B. Host [14] and W. Parry [21]. A simpler theorem of R. Lyons [19] - preceding them - is also presented…
