Taylor Expansion for the Entropy Rate of Hidden Markov Chains
We study the entropy rate of a hidden Markov process, defined by observing the output of a symmetric channel whose input is a first order Markov process. Although this definition is very simple, obtaining the exact amount of entropy rate in calculation is an open problem. We introduce some probability matrices based on Markov chain's and channel's parameters. Then, we try to obtain an estimate ...
متن کاملIs gravitational entropy quantized?
In Einstein’s gravity, the entropy of horizons is proportional to their area. Several arguments given in the literature suggest that, in this context, both area and entropy should be quantized with an equallyspaced spectrum for large quantum numbers. But in more general theories (like, for example, in the black hole solutions of Gauss-Bonnet or Lanczos-Lovelock gravity) the horizon entropy is n...
متن کاملGravitational Collapse and Cosmic Censorship
This article gives an elementary overview of the end-state of gravitational collapse according to classical general relativity. The focus of discussion is the formation of black holes and naked singularities in various physically reasonable models of gravitational collapse. Possible implications for the cosmic censorship hypothesis are outlined. based on a talk given at the XVIIIth meeting of t...
متن کاملGravitational Entropy and Inflation
The main topic of this paper is a description of the generation of entropy at the end of the inflationary era. As a generalization of the present standard model of the Universe dominated by pressureless dust and a Lorentz invariant vacuum energy (LIVE), we first present a flat Friedmann universe model, where the dust is replaced with an ideal gas. It is shown that the pressure of the gas is inv...
متن کاملGravitational Waves from Cosmic Strings
Gravitational waves from cosmic strings are generated in the first fractions of a second after the Big Bang, potentially providing a unprecedented probe of the early universe. We discuss the key dynamical processes underlying calculations of the stochastic background produced by a string network and we detail the parameter dependencies of the resulting spectral density Ωgr(f). The present const...
