We study minimization of a parametric family of relative entropies, termed relative $\alpha$-entropies (denoted $\mathscr{I}_{\alpha}(P,Q)$). These arise as redundancies under mismatched compression when cumulants of compressed lengths are…
To know the statistical distribution of a variable is an important problem in management of resources. Distributions of the power law type are observed in many real systems. However power law distributions have an infinite variance and thus…
There exist a large literature on the application of $q$-statistics to the out-of-equilibrium non-ergodic systems in which some degree of strong correlations exists. Here we study the distribution of first return times to zero, $P_R(0,t)$,…
We consider quadratic Weyl sums $S_N(x;c,\alpha)=\sum_{n=1}^N\exp\{2\pi i((\frac{1}{2}n^2+cn)x+\alpha n)\}$ for $c=\alpha=0$ (the rational case) or $(c,\alpha)\notin\mathbb{Q}^2$ (the irrational case), where $x$ is randomly distributed…
A simple proof of Euler's formula which states that the sum of the reciprocals of all natural numbers squared equals $\pi^2/6$ is presented based on the distribution theory introduced by Laurent Schwartz. Additional identities are obtained…
Let $\{\mu(\cdot,t):t\geq0\}$ be the family of probability measures corresponding to the solution of the inelastic Kac model introduced in Pulvirenti and Toscani [\textit{J. Stat. Phys.} \textbf{114} (2004) 1453-1480]. It has been proved by…
Li et al. presented a protocol [Int. Journal of Quantum Information, Vol. 4, No. 6 (2006) 899-906] for quantum key distribution based on entanglement swapping. In this protocol they use random and certain bits to construct a classical key…
We propose an elemantary approach to Zudilin's q-question about Schmidt's problem [Electron. J. Combin. 11 (2004), #R22], which has been solved in a previous paper [Acta Arith. 127 (2007), 17--31]. The new approach is based on a q-analogue…
The uniqueness theorem for Tsallis entropy was presented in {\it H.Suyari, IEEE Trans. Inform. Theory, Vol.50, pp.1783-1787 (2004)} by introducing the generalized Shannon-Khinchin's axiom. In the present paper, this result is generalized…
We have found several summation formulas that extend Ramanujan's psi sum. First contains a parameter $\alpha=1/N$, $N$ is a positive integer, and transforms to $q$-beta integral in the limit $N\to\infty$. The other is a $q$-analogue of…
We study linear recurrences of Eulerian type of the form \[ P_n(v) = (\alpha(v)n+\gamma(v))P_{n-1}(v) +\beta(v)(1-v)P_{n-1}'(v)\qquad(n\ge1), \] with $P_0(v)$ given, where $\alpha(v), \beta(v)$ and $\gamma(v)$ are in most cases polynomials…
We shall prove that if $N=p^\alpha q_1^{2\beta_1} q_2^{2\beta_2} \cdots q_{r-1}^{2\beta_{r-1}}$ is an odd perfect number such that $p, q_1, \ldots, q_{r-1}$ are distinct primes, $p\equiv\alpha\equiv 1\mod{4}$ and $t$ divides $2\beta_i+1$…
In this study it is shown that the Tsallis q-extended statistical theory was found efficient to describe faithfully the space plasmas statistics in every case, from the planetic magnetospheres, to solar corona and solar dynamics, as well as…
Let $n$ and $t$ be positive integers with $t<n$, and let $q$ be a prime power. A partial $(t-1)$-spread of ${\rm PG}(n-1,q)$ is a set of $(t-1)$-dimensional subspaces of ${\rm PG}(n-1,q)$ that are pairwise disjoint. Let $r\equiv n\pmod{t}$…
Bento \textit{et al.} [Phys. Rev. E 91, 022105 (2015)] state that the Tsallis entropy violates the third law of thermodynamics for $q \leq 0$ and $0<q<1$. We show that their results are valid only for $q \geq 1$, since there is no…

In statistical physics lately a specific kind of average, called the q-expectation value, has been extensively used in the context of q-generalized statistics dealing with distributions following power-laws. In this context q-expectation…
