Maximizing entropy of cycles on trees

In this paper we give a partial characterization of the periodic tree patterns of maximum entropy. More precisely, we prove that each periodic pattern with maximal entropy is irreducible and simplicial. Moreover, it is also maximodal in the sense that for every monotone representative of the pattern...

Description
Summary:In this paper we give a partial characterization of the periodic tree patterns of maximum entropy. More precisely, we prove that each periodic pattern with maximal entropy is irreducible and simplicial. Moreover, it is also maximodal in the sense that for every monotone representative of the pattern every periodic point is a "turning point".
