Week 11 Coursework Test

  1. For each NN write down a partition ξ of {0,1}N such that H(ξ)N with respect to the fair coin measure.
    1. Describe the sequences that belong to Y={x{0,1}N:x(n)=0x(n+1)=0} and calculate the entropy of the shift map with respect to every shift-invariant probability measure on {0,1}N with the property that μ(Y)=1.
    2. For the Markov chain defined by the matrix [111100100] calculate the maximum possible value of the entropy for an invariant measure.
