چکیده

In this article, we discuss the problem of establishing relations between information measures for network structures. Two types of entropy based measures namely, the Shannon entropy and its generalization, the Rényi entropy have been considered for this study. Our main results involve establishing formal relationships, by means of inequalities, between these two kinds of measures. Further, we also state and prove inequalities connecting the classical partition-based graph entropies and partition-independent entropy measures. In addition, several explicit inequalities are derived for special classes of graphs.

A survey of recent results in (generalized) graph entropies

The entropy of a graph was first introduced by Rashevsky [1] and Trucco [2] to interpret as the structural information content of the graph and serve as a complexity measure. In this paper, we first state a number of definitions of graph entropy measures and generalized graph entropies. Then we survey the known results about them from the following three respects: inequalities and extremal prop...

Generalized Degree-Based Graph Entropies

Inspired by the generalized entropies for graphs, a class of generalized degree-based graph entropies is proposed using the known information-theoretic measures to characterize the structure of complex networks. The new entropies depend on assigning a probability distribution about the degrees to a network. In this paper, some extremal properties of the generalized degree-based graph entropies ...

Some inequalities on generalized entropies

We give several inequalities on generalized entropies involving Tsallis entropies, using some inequalities obtained by improvements of Young’s inequality. We also give a generalized Han’s inequality.

Displacement convexity of generalized relative entropies. II

We introduce a class of generalized relative entropies (inspired by the Bregman divergence in information theory) on the Wasserstein space over a weighted Riemannian or Finsler manifold. We prove that the convexity of all the entropies in this class is equivalent to the combination of the non-negative weighted Ricci curvature and the convexity of another weight function used in the definition o...

On the way towards a generalized entropy maximization procedure

We propose a generalized entropy maximization procedure, which takes into account the generalized averaging procedures and information gain definitions underlying the generalized entropies. This novel generalized procedure is then applied to Rényi and Tsallis entropies. The generalized entropy maximization procedure for Rényi entropies results in the exponential stationary distribution asymptot...
