DESCRIPTION:The Entropy Accumulation Theorem is\, roughly speaking\, the &
 ldquo\;Beyond-IID&rdquo\;-version of the Asymptotic Equipartition Property
 . It asserts that the smooth min-entropy of a system that consists of many
  parts is well approximated by the sum of the von Neumann entropies of its
  subsystems (evaluated for suitably chosen states of these subsystems). In
  my talk\, I will revisit this theorem and conjecture a generalisation. Th
 e latter would extend the accumulation theorem to quantities other than en
 tropies.<br><br><br><br>
