A Generalization of Relative Entropy to Count Vectors and its Concentration Property

KN Oikonomou - arXiv preprint arXiv:2404.15867, 2024 - arxiv.org
We introduce a new generalization of relative entropy to non-negative vectors with sums $\gt
1$. We show in a purely combinatorial setting, with no probabilistic considerations, that in …
