In order to study as a whole a wide part of entropy measures, we introduce a two-parameter non-extensive entropic form with respect to the $h$-derivative, which generalizes the conventional Newton--Leibniz calculus. This new entropy,…

Nonextensive entropies are divided into three classes, each of which is characterized by Shannon additivity and pseudoadditivity. One of the three classes has properties of both additivities. The remaining classes have only one property of…
