Bento \textit{et al.} [Phys. Rev. E 91, 022105 (2015)] recently stated that the Tsallis entropy violates the third law of thermodynamics for $0 < q <1$ in the sub-additive regime. We first show that the division between the regimes $q < 1$…
It is pointed out that the constraint to be imposed to the maximization of the entropy for processes outside the class of thermodynamical systems, is generally not well defined. In fact, any probability distribution can be derived from…
We show that the zeroth law of thermodynamics holds within an alternative version of nonextensive statistical mechanics based on {\it incomplete probability distribution}. The generalized zeroth law leads to a generalized definition of…
Previous results on Renyi and Wang's formalism of the Tsallis thermostatics are founded by using an extensive variable z connected to the entropic parameter q. It is shown that in the thermodynamical limit both the Tsallis and Renyi…
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,…
We discuss the idea that the Tsallis-type (q-additive) entropic chain rule allows for a wider class of entropic functionals than previously thought. In particular, we point out that the ensuing entropy solutions (e.g., Tsallis entropy) can…
Recently, Gross claims that Boltzmann entropy $S=k\ln W$ is valid for any system at equilibrium, so that Tsallis entropy is useless in this case. I comment on some arguments forwarded to reach this conclusion and argue that the additive…
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 nonextensive statistical ensembles are revisited for the complex systems with long-range interactions and long-range correlations. An approximation, the value of nonextensive parameter (1-q) is assumed to be very tiny, is adopted for…
We have studied finite $N$-body $D$-dimensional nonextensive ideal gases and harmonic oscillators, by using the maximum-entropy methods with the $q$- and normal averages ($q$: the entropic index). The validity range, specific heat and…
Within Tsallis' nonextensive statistics, a model is elaborated to address self-similar time series as a thermodynamic system. Thermodynamic-type characteristics relevant to temperature, pressure, entropy, internal and free energies are…
The Tsallis entropy, which is a generalization of the Boltzmann-Gibbs entropy, plays a central role in nonextensive statistical mechanics of complex systems. A lot of efforts have recently been made on establishing a dynamical foundation…
The maximum entropy principle in Tsallis statistics is reformulated in the mathematical framework of the q-product, which results in the unique non self-referential q-canonical distribution. As one of the applications of the present…
The paper introduces nonadditivity parameter transformation group induced by Tsallis entropy. We discuss simple physical applications of a system in the contact with finite heat bath or with temperature fluctuations. With help of the…
The homogeneous entropy for continuous systems in nonextensive statistics reads $S^{H}_{q}=k_B\,{(1 - (K \int d\Gamma \rho^{1/q}(\Gamma))^{q})}/({1-q})$, where $\Gamma$ is the phase space variable. Optimization of $S^{H}_{q}$ combined with…
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…
We show that Tsallis ensemble of power-law distributions provides a mechanical model of nonextensive equilibrium thermodynamics for small interacting Hamiltonian systems, i.e., using Boltzmann's original nomenclature, we prove that it is an…
Many complex systems are characterized by non-Boltzmann distribution functions of their statistical variables. If one wants to -- justified or not -- hold on to the maximum entropy principle for complex statistical systems (non-Boltzmann)…
Tsallis' non-extensive entropy $S_q$ enables us to treat both a power and exponential evolutions of underlying microscopic dynamics on equal footing by adjusting the variable entropic index $q$ to proper one $q^*$. We propose an alternative…
The standard formulation of thermostatistics, being based on the Boltzmann-Gibbs distribution and logarithmic Shannon entropy, describes idealized uncorrelated systems with extensive energies and short-range interactions. In this letter, we…
