Information, Entropy, Life, and the Universe [PDF]
In 2015, I wrote a book with the same title as this article. The book’s subtitle is: “What we know and what we do not know.” On the book’s dedication page, I wrote: “This book is dedicated to readers of popular science books who are baffled, perplexed ...

Measuring and analyzing the information entropy value of key Audit matters (KAMs) disclosure at the system and reporting scale [PDF]
Drawing upon information entropy theory, this study deduces a measurement formula for the information entropy for key audit matters (KAMs) disclosure, considering both system scale and audit report scale. The information entropy of an audit report within

We investigate the effects of different stochastic noises on the dynamics of the edge-localised modes (ELMs) in magnetically confined fusion plasmas by using a time-dependent PDF method, path-dependent information geometry (information rate, information ...

Quantum Information and Entropy [PDF]
Thermodynamic entropy is not an entirely satisfactory measure of information of a quantum state. This entropy for an unknown pure state is zero, although repeated measurements on copies of such a pure state do communicate information. In view of this, we

Information entropy in fragmenting systems [PDF]
The possibility of facing critical phenomena in nuclear fragmentation is a topic of great interest. Different observables have been proposed to identify such a behavior, in particular, some related to the use of information entropy as a possible signal ...

Entropy and Relative Entropy From Information-Theoretic Principles [PDF]
We introduce an axiomatic approach to entropies and relative entropies that relies only on minimal information-theoretic axioms, namely monotonicity under mixing and data-processing as well as additivity for product distributions. We find that these axioms induce sufficient structure to establish continuity in the interior of the probability simplex ...

Entropy, complexity, and spatial information [PDF]
We pose the central problem of defining a measure of complexity, specifically for spatial systems in general, city systems in particular. The measures we adopt are based on Shannon's (in Bell Syst Tech J 27:379-423, 623-656, 1948) definition of ...

Unruh Effect and Information Entropy Approach
The Unruh effect can be considered a source of particle production. The idea has been widely employed in order to explain multiparticle production in hadronic and heavy-ion collisions at ultrarelativistic energies.
