Entropy Analysis of Soccer Dynamics

Abstract: This paper adopts the information and fractional calculus tools for studying the dynamics of a national soccer league. A soccer league season is treated as a complex system (CS) with a state observable at discrete time instants, that is, at the time of rounds. The CS state, consisting of the goals scored by the teams, is processed by means of different tools, namely entropy, mutual information and Jensen–Shannon divergence. The CS behavior is visualized in 3-D maps generated by multidimensional scaling. The po… Show more

“…The KdV equations of order three and five have been discussed in [ 3 ] by using two numerical methods. Entropies based on fractional calculus [ 7 ], integer and fractional dynamical systems can be solved by entropy analysis [ 8 ], nonlinear partial differential equations [ 9 ] in entropy and convexity, as well as ractional derivative advection–diffusion in two-dimensional semi-conductor systems and the dynamics of a national soccer league [ 10 , 11 ]. The exact solution to differential equations (DEs) of fractional order with mixed partial derivatives [ 12 ] are fractional linear differential equations with constant coefficients in Laplace transform [ 13 ].…”

“…An approximate solution for fractional differentiation of the generalized Mittag Leffler law by means of exponential decay was discussed in [6], and Kilbas et al discussed various applications of FDEs in [7]. Exact solutions to the FDEs and Laplace Transform of FDEs [8,9], have been things such as fractional dynamical systems [10], entropy and convexity PDEs [11], entropy analysis of soccer dynamics [12], the Laplace homotopy analysis method (LHAM) [13], and the new analytical technique (NAT) [14].…”
