Abstract

Bento \textit{et al.} [Phys. Rev. E 91, 022105 (2015)] state that the Tsallis entropy violates the third law of thermodynamics for $q \leq 0$ and $0<q<1$ . We show that their results are valid only for $q \geq 1$ , since there is no distribution maximizing the Tsallis entropy for the intervals $q \leq 0$ and $0<q<1$ compatible with the system energy expression.
