Shannon Mutual Information Applied to Genetic Systems
Shannon information has, in the past, been applied to quantify the genetic diversity of many natural populations. Here, we apply the Shannon concept to consecutive generations of alleles as they evolve over time. We suppose a genetic system analogous to the discrete noisy channel of Shannon, where the signal emitted by the input (mother population) is a number of alleles that will form the next...
متن کاملShannon Meets Carnot: Mutual Information Via Thermodynamics
In this contribution, the Gaussian channel is represented as an equivalent thermal system allowing to express its input-output mutual information in terms of thermodynamic quantities. This thermodynamic description of the mutual information is based upon a generalization of the 2 thermodynamic law and provides an alternative proof to the Guo-Shamai-Verdú theorem, giving an intriguing connection...
متن کاملGeometry of the Divergences Problem in QFT
The divergences problem in QFT should be overcame presumably due to the unification of the fundamental interactions [1]. We evidently cannot to achieve this goal now. Together with this there are divergences in problems where the highenergy processes simply cannot be involved (say electron self-energy, Lamb’s shift, etc.). Last ones reflect the formal character of perturbation theory applied to...
متن کاملShannon Entropy and Mutual Information for Multivariate SkewElliptical Distributions
The entropy and mutual information index are important concepts developed by Shannon in the context of information theory. They have been widely studied in the case of the multivariate normal distribution. We first extend these tools to the full symmetric class of multivariate elliptical distributions and then to the more flexible families of multivariate skew-elliptical distributions. We study...
متن کاملApplications of QFT to Geometry
1 Introductory motivation 1.1 Linear equations Suppose we are interested in studying the topology of smooth manifolds X. One powerful tool for this purpose is to introduce an ingredient which at first seems alien to the problem: namely we fix a Riemannian metric g on X. This allows us to define the form Laplacian (A.12) and consider the space of harmonic forms Hk(X) = {ω ∈ Ωk(X)|∆ω = 0}. (1.1) ...
