How Hidden are Hidden Processes? A Primer on Crypticity and Entropy Convergence
John R. Mahoney, Christopher J. Ellison, Ryan G. James +1
We investigate a stationary process's crypticity---a measure of the difference between its hidden state information and its observed information---using the causal states of comput…
Invariant barriers to reactive front propagation in fluid flows
John Mahoney, Dylan Bargteil, Mark Kingsbury +2
We present theory and experiments on the dynamics of reaction fronts in two-dimensional, vortex-dominated flows, for both time-independent and periodically driven cases. We find th…
Information Symmetries in Irreversible Processes
Christopher J. Ellison, John R. Mahoney, Ryan G. James +2
We study dynamical reversibility in stationary stochastic processes from an information theoretic perspective. Extending earlier work on the reversibility of Markov chains, we focu…
