Continuity conjecture for the Rényi entropy rate at order one
Continuity conjecture for the Rényi entropy rate at order one
Let be a stationary ergodic process over a finite alphabet . Its Shannon entropy rate is
and, when the limit exists, its -th order Rényi entropy rate is
Continuity conjecture. For every stationary ergodic process ,
The conjecture is a natural rate-level analogue of the finite-block identity , but the existence of the Rényi entropy rate itself is not known for general stationary ergodic processes. The source reports this conjecture as neither proved nor disproved in the literature.
