Statistical mechanics is generalized on the basis of an additive information theory for incomplete probability distributions. The incomplete normalization $\sum_{i=1}^wp_i^q=1$ is used to obtain generalized entropy $S=-k\sum_{i=1}^wp_i^q\ln…

The nature of a physical law is examined, and it is suggested that there may not be any fundamental dynamical laws. This explains the intrinsic indeterminism of quantum theory. The probabilities for transition from a given initial state to…
