In this paper, we investigate the partition inequality, joint convexity, and Pinsker's inequality, for a divergence that generalizes the Tsallis Relative Entropy and Kullback-Leibler divergence. The generalized divergence is defined in…
We expand the Tsallis distribution in a Taylor series of powers of (q-1), where q is the Tsallis parameter, assuming q is very close to 1. This helps in studying the degree of deviation of transverse momentum spectra and other thermodynamic…
Taylor's law, also known as fluctuation scaling in physics and the power-law variance function in statistics, is an empirical pattern widely observed across fields including ecology, physics, finance, and epidemiology. It states that the…
Within framework of the quantum calculus, we represent the partition function and the mass exponent of a multifractal, as well as the average of random variables distributed over self-similar set, on the basis of the deformed expansion in…
By recourse to tempered ultradistributions, we show here that the effect of a q-Fourier transform (qFT) is to map {\it equivalence classes} of functions into other classes in a one-to-one fashion. This suggests that Tsallis' q-statistics…
A wide class of physical distributions appears to follow the q-Gaussian form, which plays the role of attractor according to a Central Limit Theorem generalized in the presence of specific correlations between the relevant random variables.…
We study a symmetric generalization $\mathfrak{p}^{(N)}_k(\eta, \alpha)$ of the binomial distribution recently introduced by Bergeron et al, where $\eta \in [0,1]$ denotes the win probability, and $\alpha$ is a positive parameter. This…
We revisit the derivation of a formula for the $q$-generalised multinomial coefficient rooted in the $q$-deformed algebra, a foundational framework in the study of nonextensive statistics. Previous approximate expressions in the literature…
Certain fluctuations in particle number at fixed total energy lead exactly to a cut-power law distribution in the one-particle energy, via the induced fluctuations in the phase-space volume ratio. The temperature parameter is expressed…
We present the conclusive mathematical structure behind Tsallis statistics. We obtain mainly the following five theoretical results: (i) the one-to-one correspondence between the q-multinomial coefficient and Tsallis entropy, (ii) symmetry…
The classic central limit theorem and $\alpha$-stable distributions play a key role in probability theory, and also in Boltzmann-Gibbs (BG) statistical mechanics. They both concern the paradigmatic case of probabilistic independence of the…
On the basis of the deformed series in quantum calculus, we generalize the partition function and the mass exponent of a multifractal, as well as the average of a random variable distributed over self-similar set. For the partition…
The generalized gamma distribution shows up in many problems related to engineering, hydrology as well as survival analysis. Earlier work has been done that estimated the deviation of the exponential and the Weibull distribution from…
We first observe that the (co)domains of the q-deformed functions are some subsets of the (co)domains of their ordinary counterparts, thereby deeming the deformed functions to be incomplete. In order to obtain a complete definition of…
We consider a multinomial distribution, where the number of cells increases and the cell-probabilities decreases as the number of observations grows. The probabilities of large deviations of statistics, which has form of a sum of Borel…
Trying to compute the nonextensive q-partition function for the Harmonic Oscillator in more than two dimensions, one encounters that it diverges, which poses a serious threat to the whole of Tsallis' thermostatistics. Appeal to the so…
Quasi-power law ensembles are discussed from the perspective of nonextensive Tsallis distributions characterized by a nonextensive parameter $q$. A number of possible sources of such distributions are presented in more detail. It is further…
Over the last two decades, it has been argued that the Lorentz transformation mechanism, which imposes the generalization of Newton's classical mechanics into Einstein's special relativity, implies a generalization, or deformation, of the…
A generalized-statistics variational principle for source separation is formulated by recourse to Tsallis' entropy subjected to the additive duality and employing constraints described by normal averages. The variational principle is…
