We show that the generalized Boltzmann distribution is the only distribution for which the Gibbs-Shannon entropy equals the thermodynamic entropy. This result means that the thermodynamic entropy and the Gibbs-Shannon entropy are not…
Few parameters dependent generalised entropy includes Tsallis entropy, R{\'e}nyi entropy, Sharma-Mittal entropy, Barrow entropy, Kaniadakis entropy, etc as particular representatives. Its relation to physical systems is not always clear. In…
The empirical Orlicz norm based on a random sample is defined as a natural estimator of the Orlicz norm of a univariate probability distribution. A law of large numbers is derived under minimal assumptions. The latter extends readily to a…
The entropy of a thermally isolated system should not decrease after a quench or external driving. For a classical system following Hamiltonian dynamics, we show how this statement emerges for a large system in the sense that the extensive…
Bashkirov's comments (cond-mat/0410667) on the paper [S. Abe, Phys. Rev. E 66, 046134 (2002)] are all refuted. In addition, it is discussed that the Renyi entropy is irrelevant to generalization of Boltzmann-Gibbs statistical mechanics for…
Traditionally the exponential canonical distributions of Gibbsian statistical mechanics are given theoretical justification in at least four different ways: steepest descent method, counting method, Khinchin's method based on te central…
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…
We show that size-rank distributions with power-law decay (often only over a limited extent) observed in a vast number of instances in a widespread family of systems obey Tsallis statistics. The theoretical framework for these distributions…
Microcanonical equations for several thermodynamic properties of a system, suitable for molecular dynamics simulations, are derived from the nonextensive Tsallis entropy functional. Two possible definitions of temperature, the usual one and…
High-energy phenomena presenting strong dynamical correlations, long-range interactions and microscopic memory effects are well described by nonextensive versions of the canonical Boltzmann-Gibbs statistical mechanics. After a brief…
Given physical systems, counting rule for their statistical mechanical descriptions need not be unique, in general. It is shown that this nonuniqueness leads to the existence of various canonical ensemble theories which equally arise from…
The stochastic properties of variables whose addition leads to $q$-Gaussian distributions $G_q(x)=[1+(q-1)x^2]_+^{1/(1-q)}$ (with $q\in\mathbb{R}$ and where $[f(x)]_+=max\{f(x),0\}$) as limit law for a large number of terms are…
In this paper we introduce a nonextensive quantum information theoretic measure which may be defined between any arbitrary number of density matrices, and we analyze its fundamental properties in the spectral graph-theoretic framework.…
Shannon and Khinchin showed that assuming four information theoretic axioms the entropy must be of Boltzmann-Gibbs type, $S=-\sum_i p_i \log p_i$. Here we note that in physical systems one of these axioms may be violated. For non-ergodic…
Though Shannon entropy of a probability measure $P$, defined as $- \int_{X} \frac{\ud P}{\ud \mu} \ln \frac{\ud P}{\ud\mu} \ud \mu$ on a measure space $(X, \mathfrak{M},\mu)$, does not qualify itself as an information measure (it is not a…
We provide a unifying axiomatics for Renyi's entropy and non-extensive entropy of Tsallis. It is shown that the resulting entropy coincides with Csiszar's measure of directed divergence known from communication theory.
We demonstrate that selection of the minimal value of ordered variables leads in a natural way to its distribution being given by the Tsallis distribution, the same as that resulting from Tsallis nonextensive statistics. The possible…
It is argued that the factorization of compound probability over subsystems is a consequence of the existence of thermodynamic equilibrium in the composite system having Tsallis entropy. So it should be respected by all exact calculations…
The paper demonstrates that the canonical probability distribution of the occupancy numbers of a bosonic system is multinomial, and shows how the thermodynamics of the canonical system descends from this distribution. The categorical…
In this paper we introduce an easy to compute upper bound on the Tsallis entropy of a density matrix describing a system coupled to a noise source. This suggests that the Tsallis entropy is most natural in the context of quantum information…
