Title of Seminar: Infosys Chandrasekharan Random Geometry Colloquium
Title of Talk: Introduction to Entropy
Speaker: Viswanathan S, ICTS
Date: February 19, 2024
Time: 16:00:00 Hours
Venue: A-369
Abstract: In this talk we'll attempt to give an overview of entropy. We shall begin by defining Shannon entropy for a probability measure space, then upgrade it to a measure-preserving system, and subsequently to a topological dynamical system. The goal would be to understand what entropy attempts to capture.
