New class of reference distribution functions for numerical approximation of the solution of the Fokker-Planck equations associated to the charged particle dynamics in tokamak are studied. The reference distribution functions are obtained…

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…

Using R\'enyi entropy, a possible thermostatistics for nonextensive systems is discussed. We show that it is possible to get the $q$-exponential distribution function for nonextensive systems having nonadditive energy but additive entropy.…

In ordinary Boltzmann-Gibbs thermostatistics, the relative entropy expression plays the role of generalized free energy, providing the difference between the off-equilibrium and equilibrium free energy terms associated with Boltzmann-Gibbs…

We find solution to the metric function f(r)=0 of charged BTZ black hole making use of the Lambert function. The condition of extremal charged BTZ black hole is determined by a non-linear relation of M_e(Q)=Q^2(1-\ln Q^2). Then, we study…

Many thermodynamic relations involve inequalities, with equality if a process does not involve dissipation. In this article we provide equalities in which the dissipative contribution is shown to involve the relative entropy (a.k.a.…

We use the Falcone-Takesaki non-commutative flow of weights and the resulting theory of non-commutative Lp spaces in order to define the family of relative entropy functionals that naturally generalise the quantum relative entropies of…

The present work investigates the Lesche stability (experimental robustness), the thermodynamic stability, the Legendre structure of thermodynamics, and derives the Maximum Entropy distribution of the one--parametric ``nonextensive…

In this paper we review various information-theoretic characterizations of the approach to equilibrium in biological systems. The replicator equation, evolutionary game theory, Markov processes and chemical reaction networks all describe…

Lima et al recently claim that ({\em Chaos, Solitons $&$ Fractals,} 2004;19:1005)the entropy for the incomplete statistics based on the normalization$\sum_ip_i^q=1$ should be $S=-\sum_ip_i^{2q-1}\ln_qp_i$ instead…

The logarithm function and the exponential function are, by nature, base dependent. Thus, in this paper I introduces an arbitrary base in the logarithm and exponential functions, both dependent on $q$, in order to have $\log_a(x;q)$ and…

We introduce the concept of \textit{defect relative entropy} as a measure of distinguishability within the space of defects. We compute the defect relative entropy for conformal/topological defects, deriving a universal formula in conformal…

We define a general notion of entropy in elementary, algebraic terms. Based on that, weak forms of a scalar product and a distance measure are derived. We give basic properties of these quantities, generalize the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality,…

This paper deals with the diffusive limit of the Jin and Xin model and its approximation by an asymptotic preserving finite volume scheme. At the continuous level, we determine a convergence rate to the diffusive limit by means of a…

We study analytically the corrections to the leading terms in the Renyi entropy of a massive lattice theory, showing significant deviations from naive expectations. In particular, we show that finite size and finite mass effects give rise…

We study the entanglement entropy of random partitions in one- and two-dimensional critical fermionic systems. In an infinite system we consider a finite, connected (hypercubic) domain of linear extent $L$, the points of which with…

In this paper we combine the three universalisms: pairwise interactions concept, dynamical systems theory and relative entropy analysis to develop a theory of entropy issues. We introduce two hypotheses concerning the structure and types…

The q-exponential distributions, which are generalizations of the Zipf-Mandelbrot power-law distribution, are frequently encountered in complex systems at their stationary states. From the viewpoint of the principle of maximum entropy, they…

This article presents the calculation of the entropy of a system with Zipfian distribution and shows that a communication system tends to present an exponent value close to one, but still greater than one, so that it might maximize entropy…

Count data with an excessive number of zeros frequently arise in fields such as economics, medicine, and public health. Traditional count models often fail to adequately handle such data, especially when the relationship between the…
