A class of small-deviation theorems for the relative entropy densities of arbitrary random field on
the generalized Bethe tree are discussed by comparing the arbitrary measure μ with the Markov measure μ Q on the generalized Bethe tree As corollaries, some Shannon-Mcmillan theorems for the arbitrary random field on the generalized Bethe tree, Markov chain field on the generalized Bethe tree are obtained
1 Introduction and Lemma
Let T be a tree which is infinite, connected and contains no circuits Given any two vertices
x / y ∈ T, there exists a unique path x x1, x2, , xm y from x to y with x1, x2, , xm
connecting x and y To index the vertices on T, we first assign a vertex as the “root” and label
it as O A vertex is said to be on the nth level if the path linking it to the root has n edges The root O is also said to be on the 0th level.
Definition 1.1 Let T be a tree with root O, and let {N n, n ≥ 1} be a sequence of positive
integers T is said to be a generalized Bethe tree or a generalized Cayley tree if each vertex

Level 2 Level 3
Figure 1: Bethe tree T B,2
which each vertex has N branches to the next level.
In the following, we always assume that T is a generalized Bethe tree and denote by

X {Xt, t ∈ T} be the coordinate stochastic process defined on the measurable space Ω, F;
X T n

Now we give a definition of Markov chain fields on the tree T by using the cylinder
distribution directly, which is a natural extension of the classical definition of Markov chains

almost sure convergence is called the Shannon-McMillan theorem or the entropy theorem or
with the development of the information theory scholars get to study the Shannon-McMillan
drawn increasing interest from specialists in physics, probability and information theory
Shannon-McMillan theorem for PPG-invariant random fields on trees But their results only relate to
Shannon-McMillan theorems, the limit properties and the asymptotic equipartition property for Markov chains indexed by a homogeneous tree and the Cayley tree, respectively Shi and
second-order Markov chains indexed by a tree
In this paper, we study a class of Shannon-McMillan random approximation theorems for arbitrary random fields on the generalized Bethe tree by comparison between the arbitrary measure and Markov measure on the generalized Bethe tree As corollaries, a class of Shannon-McMillan theorems for arbitrary random fields and the Markov chains field on the generalized Bethe tree are obtained Finally, some limit properties for the expectation of the random conditional entropy are discussed
