An Entropic Approach To Dynamics, Pedro Henrique Moreira Pessoa
An Entropic Approach To Dynamics, Pedro Henrique Moreira Pessoa
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
The present thesis deals with different aspects of probability, the method of maximum entropy, information geometry, and dynamical systems and their applications to statistical physics and complex systems. Those topics come together in the framework for dynamics termed entropic dynamics. Work on the topic was initiated by my PhD advisor Professor Ariel Caticha and many colleagues at University at Albany as a method for explaining the dynamical processes in quantum mechanics from first principles of probability theory.
