Abstract

The main goal of this report is to do the next step in the investigation of generalized Fisher's (replicator) equations. Recently Lyapunov-Meyer function was constructed by the author for above equation as relative entropy. In this paper we prove that negative relative entropy is a convex function for a probability space and receive new distance measure between two probability distributions. Also we use Legendre-Donkin-Fenchel transformation for dual coordinates. In particular it follows from these cross-disciplinary issue that nonlinear pairwise interactions is the origin of all known entropy functions.
