This is a graduate level introductory course in Information Theory where we will introduce the mathematical notion of information and justify it by various operational meanings. This basic theory builds on probability theory and allows us to quantitatively measure the uncertainty and randomness in a random variable as well as information revealed on observing its value. We will encounter quantities such as entropy, mutual information, total variation distance, and KL divergence and explain how they play a role in important problems in communication, statistics, and computer science.
