Entropy of Closure Operators and Network Coding Solvability

The entropy of a closure operator has been recently proposed for the study of network coding and secret sharing. In this paper, we study closure operators in relation to their entropy. We first introduce four different kinds of rank functions for a given closure operator, which determine bounds on t...
