Abstract

A proof of the quantum HH-theorem taking into account nonextensive effects on the quantum entropy SqQS^Q_q is shown. The positiveness of the time variation of SqQS^Q_q combined with a duality transformation implies that the nonextensive parameter qq lies in the interval [0,2]. It is also shown that the equilibrium states are described by quantum qq-power law extensions of the Fermi-Dirac and Bose-Einstein distributions. Such results reduce to the standard ones in the extensive limit, thereby showing that the nonextensive entropic framework can be harmonized with the quantum distributions contained in the quantum statistics theory.
