چکیده

We establish upper and lower bounds for the metric entropy and bracketing entropy of the class of d-dimensional bounded monotonic functions under L norms. It is interesting to see that both the metric entropy and bracketing entropy have different behaviors for p < d/(d − 1) and p > d/(d − 1). We apply the new bounds for bracketing entropy to establish a global rate of convergence of the MLE of a d-dimensional monotone density.

Entropy Estimate for Maps on Forests

A 1993 result of J. Llibre, and M. Misiurewicz, (Theorem A [5]), states that if a continuous map f of a graph into itself has an s-horseshoe, then the topological entropy of f is greater than or equal to logs, that is h( f ) ? logs. Also a 1980 result of L.S. Block, J. Guckenheimer, M. Misiurewicz and L.S. Young (Lemma 1.5 [3]) states that if G is an A-graph of f then h(G) ? h( f ). In this pap...

Relative Entropy in 2D Quantum Field Theory, Finite-Size Corrections, and Irreversibility of the Renormalization Group

The relative entropy in two-dimensional field theory is studied for its application as an irreversible quantity under the renormalization group, relying on a general monotonicity theorem for that quantity previously established. In the cylinder geometry, interpreted as finite-temperature field theory, one can define from the relative entropy a monotonic quantity similar to Zamolodchikov’s c fun...

Scaling Behavior of Black Hole Entropy

It is shown that the entropy of fourdimensional black holes in string theory compactified on weighted Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces shows scaling behavior in a certain limit. This leads to non-monotonic functions on the moduli space. Email address: [email protected], [email protected]

Entropic C theorems in free and interacting two-dimensional field theories

The relative entropy in two-dimensional field theory is studied on a cylinder geometry, interpreted as finite-temperature field theory. The width of the cylinder provides an infrared scale that allows us to define a dimensionless relative entropy analogous to Zamolodchikov’s c function. The one-dimensional quantum thermodynamic entropy gives rise to another monotonic dimensionless quantity. I i...

Rényi Entropies for Free Field Theories

Rényi entropies Sq are useful measures of quantum entanglement; they can be calculated from traces of the reduced density matrix raised to power q, with q ≥ 0. For (d + 1)dimensional conformal field theories, the Rényi entropies across S may be extracted from the thermal partition functions of these theories on either (d+1)-dimensional de Sitter space or R×H, where H is the d-dimensional hyperb...
