We introduce a variant of the R\'enyi entropy definition that aligns it with the well-known H\"older mean: in the new formulation, the r-th order R\'enyi Entropy is the logarithm of the inverse of the r-th order H\"older mean. This brings…

In this work we firstly review some results in Classical Information Theory. Next, we try to generalize these results by using the Tsallis entropy. We present a preliminary result and discuss our aims in this field.

We discuss the idea that the Tsallis-type (q-additive) entropic chain rule allows for a wider class of entropic functionals than previously thought. In particular, we point out that the ensuing entropy solutions (e.g., Tsallis entropy) can…

We investigate the cumulative Tsallis entropy, an information measure recently introduced as a cumulative version of the classical Tsallis differential entropy, which is itself a generalization of the Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics. This…
