We study the estimation of Tsallis entropy of a finite number of independent populations, each following an exponential distribution with the same scale parameter and distinct location parameters for $q>0$. We derive a Stein-type improved…
We determine a general link between two different solutions of the MaxEnt variational problem, namely, the ones that correspond to using either Shannon's or Tsallis' entropies in the concomitant variational problem. It is shown that the two…

The microscopic foundation of the generalized equilibrium statistical mechanics based on the Tsallis entropy is given by using the Gibbs idea of statistical ensembles of the classical and quantum mechanics. The equilibrium distribution…
We demonstrate and discuss the process of gaining information and show an example in which some specific way of gaining information about an object results in the Tsallis form of entropy rather than in the Shannon one.
We present a stability analysis of the classical ideal gas in a new theory of nonextensive statistics and use the theory to understand the phenomena of negative specific heat in some self-gravitating systems. The stability analysis is made…

In this letter, we study the limit behavior of the evolution of Tsallis entropy in self-gravitating systems. The study is carried out under two different situations, drawing the same conclusion. No matter in the energy transfer process or…
Kullback-Leibler relative-entropy has unique properties in cases involving distributions resulting from relative-entropy minimization. Tsallis relative-entropy is a one parameter generalization of Kullback-Leibler relative-entropy in the…
In this paper we introduce an easy to compute upper bound on the Tsallis entropy of a density matrix describing a system coupled to a noise source. This suggests that the Tsallis entropy is most natural in the context of quantum information…
