Piotr Nayar, University of Warsaw, Poland, Sharp variance-entropy comparison for Gaussian quadratic forms

September 7, 2020 | 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm EDT

We show that among nonnegative quadratic forms in n independent standard normal random variables, a diagonal form with equal coefficients maximizes differential entropy when variance is fixed. We also discuss some related open problems.
