Channel Ordering and Supermodularity [PDF]
2019 IEEE Information Theory Workshop (ITW), 2019 This work introduces a new preorder over channels that is monotonic with Shannon’s mutual information for all distributions over the input alphabet. Moreover, this monotonicity also holds when substituting mutual information for quantities relative to Arimoto-Renyi conditional entropies and guessing entropy. Several results connecting this new preorder

Sharing Supermodular Costs [PDF]
Operations Research, 2010 We study cooperative games with supermodular costs. We show that supermodular costs arise in a variety of situations; in particular, we show that the problem of minimizing a linear function over a supermodular polyhedron—a problem that often arises in combinatorial optimization—has supermodular optimal costs.

On a Connection between Information and Group Lattices
Entropy, 2011 In this paper we review a particular connection between information theory and group theory. We formalize the notions of information elements and information lattices, first proposed by Shannon.

Resource redeployment as an entry advantage in resource‐poor settings
Strategic Management Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Research Summary Scarcity of productive factors poses a challenge for firms entering underdeveloped regions. We theorize that incumbent firms can overcome scarcity of skilled human capital in local labor markets by redeploying workers from existing units.

Supermodularity and Tipping [PDF]
, 2006 We model tipping as a game-theoretic phenomenon and investigate the connection between supermodular games, tipping of equilibria and cascading, and apply the results to issues that arise in the context of homeland security and computer security. We show that tipping and cascading can occur in supermodular games and that "increasing differences"is a ...

Welfare maximization and the supermodular degree [PDF]
Proceedings of the 4th conference on Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science, 2013 Given a set of items and a collection of players, each with a nonnegative monotone valuation set function over the items, the welfare maximization problem requires that every item be allocated to exactly one player, and one wishes to maximize the sum of values obtained by the players, as computed by applying the respective valuation function to the ...
