摘要
We present an axiomatic characterization of entropies with properties of branching, continuity, and weighted additivity. We deliberately do not assume that the entropies are symmetric. The resulting entropies are generalizations of the entropies of degree alpha, including the Shannon entropy as the case alpha = 1. Such "weighted" entropies have potential applications to the "utility of gambling" problem.
