We investigate entropy transport for universal scaling phenomena in closed quantum many-body systems far from equilibrium. From spatially resolved experimental data of a spinor Bose gas, we demonstrate that entropy decreases on…
The generalized zeroth law of thermodynamics indicates that the physical temperature in nonextensive statistical mechanics is different from the inverse of the Lagrange multiplier, beta. This leads to modifications of some of thermodynamic…
This paper extends a recently introduced theory describing particle transport for random statistically homogeneous systems in which the distribution function p(s) for chord lengths between scattering centers is non-exponential. Here, we…
In spite of its undeniable success, there are still open questions regarding Tsallis non-extensive statistical formalism, whose founding stone was laid in 1988 in JSTAT. Some of them are concerned with the so-called normalization problem of…
Thermodynamic models present binary interaction parameters, based on the Boltzmann weight. Discrepancies from experimental data lead to empirically consider temperature dependence of the parameters, but these modifications keep unchanged…
An updated review [1] of nonextensive statistical mechanics and thermodynamics is colloquially presented. Quite naturally the possibility emerges for using the value of q-1 (entropic nonextensivity) as a simple and efficient manner to…
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.…
We apply non-extensive methods to the statistical analysis of fully developed turbulent flows. Probability density functions of velocity differences at distance r obtained by extremizing the Tsallis entropies coincide well with what is…
In a recent paper, Wang. et al. (2009) claim that Tsallis' nonadditivity of q-nonextensive statistical mechanics (Gell-Mann and Tsallis 2004, Tsallis 2009) is mathematically inconsistent and hence one should carefully review Tsallis' ideas…
We examine the inference of quantum density operators from incomplete information by means of the maximization of general non-additive entropic forms. Extended thermodynamic relations are given. When applied to a bipartite spin 1/2 system,…
Superstatistics are superpositions of different statistics relevant for driven nonequilibrium systems with spatiotemporal inhomogeneities of an intensive variable (e.g., the inverse temperature). They contain Tsallis statistics as a special…
An axiomatic foundation regarding the entropy for complex systems is established. Missing from decades of research was the requirement that entropy must measure the uncertainty at the informational scale of the maximizing distribution,…
A new method is proposed for analyzing complexity and studying the information in random geometric networks using Tsallis entropy tool. Tsallis entropy of the ensemble of random geometric networks is calculated based on the components of…
We comment on some open questions and theoretical peculiarities in Tsallis nonextensive statistical mechanics. It is shown that the theoretical basis of the successful Tsallis' generalized exponential distribution shows some worrying…
Tsallis has proposed a generalization of Boltzmann-Gibbs thermostatistics by introducing a family of generalized nonextensive entropy functionals with a single parameter $q$. These reduce to the extensive Boltzmann-Gibbs form for $q=1$, but…
Traditionally, phase transitions are defined in the thermodynamic limit only. We propose a new formulation of equilibrium thermo-dynamics that is based entirely on mechanics and reflects just the {\em geometry and topology} of the N-body…
Inspired by the recent theory of Entropy-Transport problems and by the $\mathbf{D}$-distance of Sturm on normalised metric measure spaces, we define a new class of complete and separable distances between metric measure spaces of possibly…
Fundamental properties for the Tsallis relative entropy in both classical and quantum systems are studied. As one of our main results, we give the parametric extension of the trace inequality between the quantum relative entropy and the…
One of the few accepted dynamical foundations of non-additive "non-extensive") statistical mechanics is that the choice of the appropriate entropy functional describing a system with many degrees of freedom should reflect the rate of growth…
Regardless of studies and debates over a century, the statistical origin of the second law of thermodynamics still remains illusive. One essential obstacle is the lack of a proper theoretical formalism for non-equilibrium entropy. Here I…
