In this letter we show that the Shore--Johnson axioms for Maximum Entropy Principle in statistical estimation theory account for a considerably wider class of entropic functional than previously thought. Apart from a formal side of the…

We study the diffusion of a charged particle in a magnetic field subject to stochastic dichotomous fluctuations. The associated induced electric field gives rise to non-trivial dynamical regimes. In particular, when the mean magnetic field…

Depending on context, the term entropy is used for a thermodynamic quantity, a~measure of available choice, a quantity to measure information, or, in the context of statistical inference, a maximum configuration predictor. For systems in…
