We adapt the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy to the non-extensive perspective recently advocated by Tsallis. The resulting expression is an average on the invariant distribution, which should be used to detect the genuine entropic index Q. We…
The study considers advantages of the introduced measure of time based on the entropy change under irreversible processes (entropy production). Using the example of non-equilibrium expansion of an ideal gas in vacuum, such a measure is…
In this paper we consider the dynamic Tsallis entropy and employ it for four model systems: (i) the motion of Brownian oscillator, (ii) the motion of Brownian oscillator with noise, (iii) the fluctuation of particle density in hydrodynamics…
We revisit the issues on the thermodynamic property of stellar self-gravitating system arising from Tsallis' non-extensive entropy. Previous papers (Taruya & Sakagami, Physica A 307 (2002) 185 (cond-mat/0107494); ibid. (2002) in press…
It is always some constraint that yields any nontrivial structure from statistical averages. As epitomized by the Boltzmann distribution, the energy conservation is often the principal constraint acting on mechanical systems. Here, we…
Information plays an important role in our understanding of the physical world. We hence propose an entropic measure of information for any physical theory that admits systems, states and measurements. In the quantum and classical world,…
Boltzmann's principle S(E,N,V)=k*ln W(E,N,V) relates the entropy to the geometric area e^{S(E,N,V)} of the manifold of constant energy in the N-body phase space. From the principle all thermodynamics and especially all phenomena of phase…
We discuss the form of the entropy for classical hamiltonian systems with long-range interaction using the Vlasov equation which describes the dynamics of a $N$-particle in the limit $N\to\infty$. The stationary states of the hamiltonian…
The most rigorous physical description of non-equilibrium gas dynamics is rooted in the numerical solution of the Boltzmann equation. Yet, the large number of degrees of freedom and the wide range of both spatial and temporal scales render…
The thermodynamic definition of entropy can be extended to nonequilibrium systems based on its relation to information. To apply this definition in practice requires access to the physical system's microstates, which may be prohibitively…
An attempt is made to construct composable composite entropy with different $q$ indices of subsystems and address the H-theorem problem of the composite system. Though the H-theorem does not hold in general situations, it is shown that some…
Molecular collision within an ideal gas originates from an intrinsic short-range repulsive interaction. The collision reduces the average accessible physical space for a single molecule and this has a direct consequence on the entropy of…
Increasing the number $N$ of elements of a system typically makes the entropy to increase. The question arises on {\it what particular entropic form} we have in mind and {\it how it increases} with $N$. Thermodynamically speaking it makes…
Entropy is a quantity for counting physical degrees of freedom in a system. At a finite temperature, one can use thermal entropy to study thermodynamical properties. At zero temperature, entanglement entropy is expected to provide a…
The entropy of Boltzmann-Gibbs, as proved by Shannon and Khinchin, is based on four axioms, where the fourth one concerns additivity. The group theoretic entropies make use of formal group theory to replace this axiom with a more general…
We demonstrate that dual entropy expressions of the Tsallis type apply naturally to statistical-mechanical systems that experience an exceptional contraction of their configuration space. The entropic index $\alpha>1$ describes the…
Firstly, we calculate quantitatively decrease of entropy by the known formulas in the ordering phenomena and nucleation of thermodynamics of microstructure. They show again that a necessary condition of decrease of entropy in isolated…
We consider statistically independent non-identical subsystems with different entropic indices q1 and q2. A relation between q1, q2 and q' (for the entire system) extends a power law for entropic index as a function of distance r. A few…
The log-periodic equation for the entropy $S = - (k/a) \sum_{i=1}^{N} p_{i} \sin(a \ln p_{i})$, based on the forgotten Sharma-Taneja entropy measure, is studied for the first time with $N$ the total number of system states and $p_{i}$ the…
We prove that the gravitational binding energy {\Omega} of a self gravitating system described by a mass density distribution {\rho}(x) admits an upper bound B[{\rho}(x)] given by a simple function of an appropriate, non-additive Tsallis'…
