Summary

The purpose of this monograph is to present a unified theory of measures of entropy which have been developed since the seventies. Only rudiments of additive measures of entropy are given, and the main part of this book is on measures of non additive entropy and its application in coding theory. Extract from the table of contents: introduction; measures of additive entropy (the Shannon entropy, the Renyi entropy); measures of non additive entropy (polynomial entropy, non polynomial algebraic entropy, transcendental entropy); coding theory.
