Computing the topological entropy of maps of the interval with three monotone pieces

An algorithm is presented for computing the topological entropy of a piecewise monotone map of the interval having three monotone pieces. The accuracy of the algorithm is discussed and some graphs of the topological entropy obtained using the algorithm are displayed. Some of the ideas behind the algorithm have application to piecewise monotone functions with more than three monotone pieces.     

A Finite Partition in a Dynamical System with Entropy Depending on the Size

A finite partition X in a C*-dynamical system has the Alicki–Fannes entropy depending on the size of X so that the dynamical entropy is . Examples are given as Cuntz's canonical endomorphism, the inner automorphism Adu on the crossed product of a quantum spin chain by the shift, and the free shift.
