Finite size effects and error-free communication in Gaussian channels [PDF]
The efficacy of a specially constructed Gallager-type error-correcting code to communication in a Gaussian channel is being examined. The construction is based on the introduction of complex matrices, used in both encoding and decoding, which comprise ...

Shannon Entropy Reinterpreted [PDF]
In this paper we remark that Shannon entropy can be expressed as a function of the self-information (i.e. the logarithm) and the inverse of the Lambert $W$ function. It means that we consider that Shannon entropy has the trace form: $-k \sum_{i} W^{-1} \circ \mathsf{ln}(p_{i})$.

On Characterization of Entropic Vectors at the Boundary of Almost Entropic Cones
The entropy region is a fundamental object in information theory. An outer bound for the entropy region is defined by a minimal set of Shannon-type inequalities called elemental inequalities also referred to as the Shannon region.

Measurements and Information in Spin Foam Models [PDF]
We present a problem relating measurements and information theory in spin foam models. In the three dimensional case of quantum gravity we can compute probabilities of spin network graphs and study the behaviour of the Shannon entropy associated to the ...

Lattices with non-Shannon Inequalities
We study the existence or absence of non-Shannon inequalities for variables that are related by functional dependencies. Although the power-set on four variables is the smallest Boolean lattice with non-Shannon inequalities there exist lattices with many

Quantifying the impacts of regulatory delay on housing affordability and quality in Austin, Texas [PDF]
textRegulatory delay during site plan review of multifamily projects in Austin has three primary impacts: 1) it generates unexpected development costs which increases housing prices over-time; 2) it stifles innovation and decreases quality of development;
