Maximum Entropy Probability Distributions on Spheres with Fixed Mean Busemann Function and Holomorphic-Information-Geometric Model of Cognition

RESUMO

In the first half of the paper we revisit the question regarding MaxEnt probability distributions on spheres. We derive families of MaxEnt distributions on spheres in real and complex vector spaces with fixed expected Busemann function (energy). As a particular case, we deduce sub-families on canonical energy levels where inverse temperature equals the dimension of the sphere. In the second part we focus on the information manifold of canonical MaxEnt distributions on the sphere in the complex vector space. This manifold is isomorphic to the Bergman ball. We introduce the reproducing kernel on this manifold and use the RKHS theory to elaborate the model of cognition. In particular, we state the principle of minimal cognitive effort in RKHS and demonstrate its dual relationship with the MaxEnt principle for probability distributions on the boundary sphere.
