The Rényi entropy is a generalization of Shannon entropy to a one-parameter family of entropies. Tsallis entropy too is a generalization of Shannon entropy. The measure for Tsallis entropy is non-logarithmic. After the introduction of Shannon entropy , the conditional Shannon entropy was derived and its properties became known. Also, for Tsallis entropy, the conditional entropy was introduced a...

a new definition of boundedness of linear order-homomorphisms (loh)in $l$-topological vector spaces is proposed. the new definition iscompared with the previous one given by fang [the continuity offuzzy linear order-homomorphism, j. fuzzy math. 5 (4) (1997)829$-$838]. in addition, the relationship between boundedness andcontinuity of lohs is discussed. finally, a new uniform boundednessprincipl...

there are different commentaries on rumi’s masnavi, each focusing on it from different pints of view such as literary aesthetics, mysticism, philosophy and subject matter. these various commentaries – including those by reynold nicholson, jafar shahidi, mohammad estelami and karim zamani – make their comparison and contrast inevitable. despite their great affinity, they are different from each ...
