Entanglement and nonextensive statistics

Quantum Physics 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

It is presented a generalization of the von Neumann mutual information in the context of Tsallis' nonextensive statistics. As an example, entanglement between two (two-level) quantum subsystems is discussed. Important changes occur in the generalized mutual information, which measures the degree of entanglement, depending on the entropic index q.
