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…

Let X_1 ,..., X_n be a collection of binary valued random variables and let f : {0,1}^n -> R be a Lipschitz function. Under a negative dependence hypothesis known as the {\em strong Rayleigh} condition, we show that f - E f satisfies a…

Let $ \tau : [0,1] \rightarrow [0,1] $ be a piecewise expanding map with full branches. Given $ \lambda : [0,1] \rightarrow (0,1) $ and $ g : [0,1] \rightarrow \mathbb{R} $ satisfying $ \tau ' \lambda > 1 $, we study the Weierstrass-type…

We develop the argument that the Gibbs-von Neumann entropy is the appropriate statistical mechanical generalisation of the thermodynamic entropy, for macroscopic and microscopic systems, whether in thermal equilibrium or not, as a…

We consider Coulomb gas models for which the empirical measure typically concentrates, when the number of particles becomes large, on an equilibrium measure minimizing an electrostatic energy. We study the behavior when the gas is…

We consider Dyson models, Ising models with slow polynomial decay, at low temperature and show that its Gibbs measures deep in the phase transition region are not $g$-measures. The main ingredient in the proof is the occurrence of an…

Numerous characterizations of Sobolev norms via the asymptotic behavior of non-local functionals have been established over the past decades; however, their validity beyond the PI framework remains poorly understood. We establish such a…

In this paper, we show that Gibbs measures on self-conformal sets generated by a $C^{1+\alpha}$ conformal IFS on $\mathbb{R}^d$ satisfying the OSC are exponentially mixing. We exploit this to obtain essentially sharp asymptotic counting…

We consider Gibbs measures relative to Brownian motion of Feynman-Kac type, with single site potential V. We show that for a large class of V, including the Coulomb potential, there exist infinitely many infinite volume Gibbs measures.

In this paper, a definition of entropy for $\mathbb{Z}_+^k(k\geq2)$-actions due to S. Friedland \cite{Friedland} is studied. Unlike the traditional definition, it may take a nonzero value for actions whose generators have finite (even zero)…

We consider distributions of ordered random vectors with given one-dimensional marginal distributions. We give an elementary necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of such a distribution with finite entropy. In this case, we…

We extend D. Burguet's construction of SRB measures for the non invertible scenario obtaining hyperbolic invariant measures with absolutely continuous disintegrations on stable manifolds for a certain class of endomorphisms on the two…

The Boltzmann-Gibbs celebrated entropy $S_{BG}=-k\sum_ip_i \ln p_i$ is {\it concave} (with regard to all probability distributions $\{p_i\}$) and {\it stable} (under arbitrarily small deformations of any given probability distribution). It…

In this work we consider a problem related to the equilibrium statistical mechanics of spin glasses, namely the study of the Gibbs measure of the random energy model. For solving this problem, new results of independent interest on sums of…

We consider the Ising model on a general tree under various boundary conditions: all plus, free and spin-glass. In each case, we determine when the root is influenced by the boundary values in the limit as the boundary recedes to infinity.…

Let $(X, \phi)$ be a compact metric flow without fixed points. We will be concerned with the entropy of flows which takes into consideration all possible reparametrizations of the flows. In this paper, by establishing the Brin-Katok's…

Our aim is to provide a short and self contained synthesis which generalise and unify various related and unrelated works involving what we call Phi-Sobolev functional inequalities. Such inequalities related to Phi-entropies can be seen in…

In spite of their simple description in terms of rotations or symplectic transformations in phase space, quadratic Hamiltonians such as those modeling the most common Gaussian operations on bosonic modes remain poorly understood in terms of…

We prove that when $f$ is a continuous selfmap acting on compact metric space $(X,d)$ which satisfies the shadowing property, then the set of irregular points (i.e. points with divergent Birkhoff averages) has full entropy. Using this fact…

We discuss a strategy for classifying anomalous actions through model action absorption. We use this to upgrade existing classification results for Rokhlin actions of finite groups on C$^*$-algebras, with further assuming a UHF-absorption…
