The Entropy of Graded Algebras

Abstract: We define the entropy of a graded algebra A = n A n by lim sup n→∞ n dim A n . This is related to the notion of entropy in symbolic dynamics, and could serve as a natural dimension concept for algebras with exponential growth. We study the entropy of quotients and subalgebras of free associative algebras and free Lie algebras. We also study the behavior of the entropy function under free products, and obtain several characterizations of free algebras in terms of entropy.

“…Using Lemma 3.1 with m = 2 and n 1 = 5 and n 2 = 6, we see that there exists a subspace N of G ⊗ G such that dim G = 11, dim N d 6 + d 5 + d 5,6 22 + 15 + 33 = 70 and E 4 (N, G) = 0. By Lemma 2.3, h 4 (K, 11, 51) = 0.…”
