Entropy- A Tale of Ice and Fire

open access: yesAnnals of the West University of Timisoara: Mathematics and Computer Science, 2023
In this review paper, we recall, in a unifying manner, our recent results concerning the Lie symmetries of nonlinear Fokker-Plank equations, associated to the (weighted) Tsallis and Kaniadakis entropies.

A new refinement of Jensen’s inequality with applications in information theory

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2020
In this paper, we present a new refinement of Jensen’s inequality with applications in information theory. The refinement of Jensen’s inequality is obtained based on the general functional in the work of Popescu et al.

Characterizations of generalized entropy functions by functional equations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We shall show that a two-parameter extended entropy function is characterized by a functional equation. As a corollary of this result, we obtain that the Tsallis entropy function is characterized by a functional equation, which is a different form used ...

Refinement of the Jensen integral inequality

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2016
In this paper we give a refinement of Jensen’s integral inequality and its generalization for linear functionals. We also present some applications in Information Theory.

Majorization, “useful” Csiszár divergence and “useful” Zipf-Mandelbrot law

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2018
In this paper, we consider the definition of “useful” Csiszár divergence and “useful” Zipf-Mandelbrot law associated with the real utility distribution to give the results for majorizatioQn inequalities by using monotonic sequences.

Entropy of a bit-shift channel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We consider a simple transformation (coding) of an iid source called a bit-shift channel. This simple transformation occurs naturally in magnetic or optical data storage. The resulting process is not Markov of any order.

New bounds for Shannon, Relative and Mandelbrot entropies via Hermite interpolating polynomial

open access: yesDemonstratio Mathematica, 2018
To procure inequalities for divergences between probability distributions, Jensen’s inequality is the key to success. Shannon, Relative and Zipf-Mandelbrot entropies have many applications in many applied sciences, such as, in information theory, biology

Some inequalities on generalized entropies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We give several inequalities on generalized entropies involving Tsallis entropies, using some inequalities obtained by improvements of Young's inequality.

A conditional Entropy Power Inequality for dependent variables

open access: yes, 2001
We provide a condition under which a version of Shannon's Entropy Power Inequality will hold for dependent variables.
