Mathstat Graduate Student Seminar - Alessandro Ricottone

This week, Alessandro Ricottone will talk to us about how he learned to stop worrying and love irreversibility:

What is the role of information in physics? Would you get more information by reading Michele's PhD thesis or one of Borges's imaginary books? I will discuss the relation between entropy and information, giving increasingly simpler definitions of entropy and using cellular automata as illustrative examples. I will also draw two triangles and the sun.

See you all there!
