In the following analysis, we develop an intuition for the Asymptotic Equipartition Theorem which is a fundamental cornerstone of information theory before formally proving that it describes the compressibility of sequences output from a stochastic source.
Pour la grande majorité des esprits humains la capacité d’attention diminue de manière progressif depuis l'an 2000. Cela rend de plus en plus improbable le développement d’idées complexes et originales.
Starting from the observation that the statistical behaviour of the Mertens function is reminiscent of a one-dimensional random walk on non-zero values of the Möbius function, we demonstrate that the Riemann Hypothesis implies an entropy-bound on the Mertens function.

In this treatise we develop the thesis of J.L. Kelly and T.M. Cover that the financial value of side information is equal to the mutual information between a wager and the side information. From this principle, we may deduce that a market is efficient to the degree that it reflects all available information via data compression.
From an information-theoretic approach to the St Petersburg paradox we may conjecture that money has the same units as entropy as a result of it being used for price discovery via maximum entropy inference.
