It is shown that the distribution derived from the principle of maximum Tsallis entropy is a superposable Levy-type distribution. Concomitantly, the leading order correction to the limit distribution is also deduced. This demonstration…
Linear irreversible thermodynamics asserts that the instantaneous local spontaneous entropy production is always nonnegative. However for a viscoelastic fluid this is not always the case. Given the fundamental status of the Second Law, this…
It is supposed that the exponential multiplier in the method of the non-equilibrium statistical operator (Zubarev`s approach) can be considered as a distribution density of the past lifetime of the system, and can be replaced by an…
We investigate stochastic averaging theory for locally Lipschitz discrete-time nonlinear systems with stochastic perturbation and its applications to convergence analysis of discrete-time stochastic extremum seeking algorithms. Firstly, by…
The fundamental inequality of Guivarc'h relates the entropy and the drift of random walks on groups. It is strict if and only if the random walk does not behave like the uniform measure on balls. We prove that, in any nonelementary…
The ordinal approach to evaluate time series due to innovative works of Bandt and Pompe has increasingly established itself among other techniques of nonlinear time series analysis. In this paper, we summarize and generalize the theory of…
We study the Kolmogorov's entropy of uniform attractors for non-autonomous dissipative PDEs. The main attention is payed to the case where the external forces are not translation-compact. We present a new general scheme which allows us to…
Lower bounds for the R\'enyi entropies of sums of independent random variables taking values in cyclic groups of prime order under permutations are established. The main ingredients of our approach are extended rearrangement inequalities in…
We use rigorous non-equilibrium thermodynamic arguments to prove (i) the residual entropy of any system is bounded below by the experimentally (calorimetrically) determined absolute temperature entropy, which itself is bounded below by the…
We give a lower bound on the growth of a subshift based on a simple condition on the set of forbidden patterns defining that subshift. Aubrun et Al. showed a similar result based on the Lov\'asz Local Lemma for subshift over any countable…
The general formalism for the nonextensive statistics based on the Landsberg-Vedral entropy was derived. The formula for the first law of thermodynamics and the exact relations of the thermodynamic quantities to their ensemble averages were…
Ergodicity, this is to say, dynamics whose time averages coincide with ensemble averages, naturally leads to Boltzmann-Gibbs (BG) statistical mechanics, hence to standard thermodynamics. This formalism has been at the basis of an enormous…
In this work, we first derive the evolution equation for the general energy-momentum moment of $\delta f$, where $\delta f$ is the deviation from the local equilibrium phase space density. We then introduce a relativistic extension of…
We study the sum of first passage times along an arbitrary cycle made up of N>2 states of a small physical system. We show that, if the system is at thermodynamic equilibrium, this sum follows the same probability distribution regardless of…
Probability distributions defined on the half space are known to be quite different from those in the full space. Here, a nonextensive entropic treatment is presented for the half space in an analytic and self-consistent way. In this…
We extend Peng's maximum principle for semilinear stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) in one space-dimension with non-convex control domains and control-dependent diffusion coefficients to the case of general cost functionals…
(abbreviated) The statistical mechanics of self-gravitating systems is a long-held puzzle. In this work, we employ a phenomenological entropy form of ideal gas, first proposed by White & Narayan, to revisit this issue. By calculating the…
We seek an entropy estimator for discrete distributions with fully empirical accuracy bounds. As stated, this goal is infeasible without some prior assumptions on the distribution. We discover that a certain information moment assumption…
We consider the second Ostrogradsky expansion from the number theory, probability theory, dynamical systems and fractal geometry points of view, and establish several new phenomena connected with this expansion. First of all we prove the…
Large entropy fluctuations in a nonequilibrium steady state of classical mechanics were studied in extensive numerical experiments on a simple 2-freedom model with the so-called Gauss time-reversible thermostat. The local fluctuations (on a…
