A note on the entropy of a doubly stochastic operator

Brunon Kamiński, José de Sam Lazaro (2000)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We investigate the properties of the entropy and conditional entropy of measurable partitions of unity in the space of essentially bounded functions defined on a Lebesgue probability space.

Quantum dynamical entropy revisited

Thomas Hudetz (1998)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We define a new quantum dynamical entropy for a C*-algebra automorphism with an invariant state (and for an appropriate 'approximating' subalgebra), which entropy is a 'hybrid' of the two alternative definitions by Connes, Narnhofer and Thirring resp. by Alicki and Fannes (and earlier, Lindblad). We report on this entropy's properties and on three examples.

A note on the interval-valued marginal problem and its maximum entropy solution

Jiřina Vejnarová (1998)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

This contribution introduces the marginal problem, where marginals are not given precisely, but belong to some convex sets given by systems of intervals. Conditions, under which the maximum entropy solution of this problem can be obtained via classical methods using maximum entropy representatives of these convex sets, are presented. Two counterexamples illustrate the fact, that this property is not generally satisfied. Some ideas of an alternative approach are presented at the end of...

A new approach to mutual information

Fumio Hiai, Dénes Petz (2007)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

A new expression as a certain asymptotic limit via "discrete micro-states" of permutations is provided for the mutual information of both continuous and discrete random variables.

A new approach to mutual information. II

Fumio Hiai, Takuho Miyamoto (2010)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

A new concept of mutual pressure is introduced for potential functions on both continuous and discrete compound spaces via discrete micro-states of permutations, and its relations with the usual pressure and the mutual information are established. This paper is a continuation of the paper of Hiai and Petz in Banach Center Publications, Vol. 78.

Fiber entropy and conditional variational principles in compact non-metrizable spaces

Tomasz Downarowicz, Jacek Serafin (2002)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider a pair of topological dynamical systems on compact Hausdorff (not necessarily metrizable) spaces, one being a factor of the other. Measure-theoretic and topological notions of fiber entropy and conditional entropy are defined and studied. Abramov and Rokhlin's definition of fiber entropy is extended, using disintegration. We prove three variational principles of conditional nature, partly generalizing some results known before in metric spaces: (1) the topological conditional...
