We develop a maximum relative entropy formalism to generate optimal approximations to probability distributions. The central results consist in (a) justifying the use of relative entropy as the uniquely natural criterion to select a…

Traditionally, the Method of (Shannon-Kullback's) Relative Entropy Maximization (REM) is considered with linear moment constraints. In this work, the method is studied under frequency moment constraints which are non-linear in…

This paper considers an information bottleneck problem with the objective of obtaining a most informative representation of a hidden feature subject to a R\'enyi entropy complexity constraint. The optimal bottleneck trade-off between…

Data partitioning that maximizes/minimizes the Shannon entropy, or more generally the R\'enyi entropy is a crucial subroutine in data compression, columnar storage, and cardinality estimation algorithms. These partition algorithms can be…

We present a universal relation between the flow of a Renyi entropy and the full counting statistics of energy transfers. We prove the exact relation for a flow to a system in thermal equilibrium that is weakly coupled to an arbitrary…

Many complex systems are characterized by non-Boltzmann distribution functions of their statistical variables. If one wants to -- justified or not -- hold on to the maximum entropy principle for complex statistical systems (non-Boltzmann)…

We obtain formulas for Petz-R\'enyi and Umegaki relative entropy from the idea of distribution of a positive selfadjoint operator. Classical results on R\'enyi and Kullback-Leibler divergences are applied to obtain new results and new…

We prove a quantitative dimension-free bound in the Shannon-Stam Entropy inequality for the convolution of two log-concave distributions in dimension d interms of the spectral gap of the density. The method relies on the analysis of the…

R\'enyi entropy is a one-parameter generalization of Shannon entropy, which has been used in various fields of physics. Despite its wide applicability, the physical interpretations of the R\'enyi entropy are not widely known. In this paper,…

We consider 3d N>= 2 superconformal field theories on a branched covering of a three-sphere. The Renyi entropy of a CFT is given by the partition function on this space, but conical singularities break the supersymmetry preserved in the…

In this study an attempt has been made to propose a way to develop new distribution. For this purpose, we need only idea about distribution function. Some important statistical properties of the new distribution like moments, cumulants,…

A framework for deriving R\'enyi entropy-power inequalities (EPIs) is presented that uses linearization and an inequality of Dembo, Cover, and Thomas. Simple arguments are given to recover the previously known R\'enyi EPIs and derive new…

By replacing linear averaging in Shannon entropy with Kolmogorov-Nagumo average (KN-averages) or quasilinear mean and further imposing the additivity constraint, R\'{e}nyi proposed the first formal generalization of Shannon entropy. Using…

Maximum entropy principle does not seem to distinguish between the use of Tsallis and Renyi entropies as either of them may be used to derive similar power-law distributions. In this paper, we address the question whether the Renyi entropy…

We developed a perturbative calculation for entropy dynamics considering a sudden coupling between a system and a bath. The theory we developed can work in general environment without Markovian approximation. A perturbative formula is given…

The thermodynamic maximum principle for the Boltzmann-Gibbs-Shannon (BGS) entropy is reconsidered by combining elements from group and measure theory. Our analysis starts by noting that the BGS entropy is a special case of relative entropy.…

An amended MaxEnt formulation for systems displaced from the conventional MaxEnt equilibrium is proposed. This formulation involves the minimization of the Kullback-Leibler divergence to a reference $Q$ (or maximization of Shannon…

In the world of generalized entropies---which, for example, play a role in physical systems with sub- and super-exponential phasespace growth per degree of freedom---there are two ways for implementing constraints in the maximum entropy…

We show how convergence to the Gumbel distribution in an extreme value setting can be understood in an information-theoretic sense. We introduce a new type of score function which behaves well under the maximum operation, and which implies…

There are no universally accepted definitions of R\'enyi conditional entropy and R\'enyi mutual information, although motivated by different applications, several definitions have been proposed in the literature. In this paper, we consider…
