All presently available results lead to the conclusion that nonextensivity, in the sense of nonextensive statistical mechanics (i.e., $q \ne 1$), does {\it not} modify anything to the second principle of thermodynamics, which therefore…
We study the evolution of the energy (mode-power) distribution for a class of randomly perturbed Hamiltonian partial differential equations and derive {\it master equations} for the dynamics of the expected power in the discrete modes. In…
Nonextensive quantum gas distributions are investigated on the basis of the factorization hypothesis of compound probability required by thermodynamic equilibrium. It is shown that the formalisms of Tsallis nonextensive statistical…
We study the collision frequencies of particles in the weakly and highly ionized plasmas with the power-law q-distributions in nonextensive statistics. We derive the average collision frequencies of neutral-neutral particle,…
Recently we have demostrated that the nonextensitivity parameter q occuring in some applications of Tsallis statistics (known also as index of the corresponding L\'evy distribution) is, in the q>1 case, given entirely by the fluctuations of…
We examine the question of whether the formal expressions of equilibrium statistical mechanics can be applied to time independent non-dissipative systems that are not in true thermodynamic equilibrium and are nonergodic. By assuming the…
We study the nonequilibrium steady state realized in a general stochastic system attached to multiple heat baths and/or driven by an external force. Starting from the detailed fluctuation theorem we derive concise and suggestive expressions…
We discuss the basic transport phenomena in gases and plasmas obeying the $q$-nonextensive velocity distribution (power-law). Analytical expressions for the thermal conductivity ($K_q$) and viscosity ($\eta_q$) are derived by solving the…
Recently, there has been an examination of the nonexponential relaxation profiles of the NMR signal. The exponential relaxation from Bloch-Torrey equations with constant diffusion coefficients are known to be an approximation, and research…
Non-equilibrium states of a thermodynamic statistical system are investigated using the thermodynamic parameter of the system lifetime, first-passage time, the time before degeneration of the system under influence of fluctuations.…
Tsallis' non-extensive entropy $S_q$ enables us to treat both a power and exponential evolutions of underlying microscopic dynamics on equal footing by adjusting the variable entropic index $q$ to proper one $q^*$. We propose an alternative…
We study the statistical force of a nonequilibrium environment on a quasi-static probe. In the linear regime the isothermal work on the probe equals the excess work for the medium to relax to its new steady condition with displaced probe.…
We have set ourselves the task of obtaining the probability distribution function of the mass density of a self-gravitating isothermal compressible turbulent fluid from its physics. We have done this in the context of a new notion: the…
We show how the Lyapunov exponents of a dynamic system can in general be expressed in terms of the free energy of a (non-Hermitian) quantum many-body problem. This puts their study as a problem of statistical mechanics, whose intuitive…
In the case of a system with an unbounded hamiltonian the entropic index q of non-extensive thermodynamics has an upperbound q_c>1 beyond which the formalism becomes meaningless. The expression 1/(q_c-1) is the dimension of the state space…
Building on the notion of $q$-integral introduced by Thomae in 1869, we introduce $q$-order statistics (that, is $q$-analogues of the classical order statistics, for $0<q<1$) which arise from dependent and not identically distributed…
Relaxation dynamics of complex quantum systems with strong interactions towards the steady state is a fundamental problem in statistical mechanics. The steady state of subsystems weakly interacting with their environment is described by the…
A longstanding goal of nonequilibrium statistical mechanics has been to extend the conceptual power of the Boltzmann distribution to driven systems. We report some new progress towards this goal. Instead of writing the nonequilibrium…
We review the ubiquitous presence in multiparticle production processes of quasi-power law distributions (i.e., distributions following pure power laws for large values of the argument but remaining finite, usually exponential, for small…
A novel approach to parton distributions parameterization in terms of quantum statistical functions is here outlined. The description, already proposed in previous publications, is here improved by adding to the statistical distributions an…
