DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Vojkan Jaksic (Université McGill)\n\nThe performanc
 e studies of the celebrated Lempel–Ziv coding algorithm have led to some
  deep insights into the specific entropy and relative entropy of stationar
 y measures on shift spaces. Notable among those is the characterization of
  the specific entropy of a stochastic source in terms of the exponential a
 symptotics of recurrence times of a typical signal\, and the related chara
 cterization of the specific cross entropy in terms of waiting times. These
  and other related entropic estimatorshave found diverse practical applica
 tions beyond information theory.In this talk I will describe a research pr
 ogram dealing with  refinements of the mathematical theory of entropic es
 timators that originated in information theory\, and to their theoretical 
 and practical applications.Based on the joint works with G. Cristadoro\, M
 . Degli Esposti\, and R. Raquepas.\n\nhttps://indico.math.cnrs.fr/event/10
