We show that in many cases the entropy displays a semi-regular behaviour, i.e. it is smooth on an open and dense set. This feature is due to a combinatorial property called matching", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-07-24T11:14:29.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37E05", "37E10" ], "keywords": [ "piecewise affine maps", "entropy changes", "combinatorial property", "dense set", "parameter families" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
