In this paper, we show that 1) additive energy is not appropriate for discussing the validity of Tsallis or R\'enyi statistics for nonextensive systems at meta-equilibrium; 2) $N$-body systems with nonadditive energy or entropy should be…
Generic axiomatic-nonextensive statistics characterized by two asymptotic properties, to each of them a scaling function is assigned, characterized by c and d for first and second scaling property, respectively, is formulated in a…
It is shown that a recent proposal to give physically meaningful definitions of temperature and pressure within Tsallis formalism for non-extensive thermostatistics leads to expressions which coincide with those obtained by using the…
By assuming an appropriate energy composition law between two systems governed by the same non-extensive entropy, we revisit the definitions of temperature and pressure, arising from the zeroth principle of thermodynamics, in a manner…
Conventional thermo-statistics address infinite homogeneous systems within the canonical ensemble. (Only in this case this is equivalent to the fundamental microcanonical ensemble.) However, some 170 years ago the original motivation of…
We discuss different aspects of the present status of the Statistical Physics focusing the attention on the non-extensive systems, and in particular, on the so called small systems. Multimicrocanonical Distribution and some of its geometric…
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…
Starting from the basic prescriptions of the Tsallis' nonextensive thermostatistics, i.e. generalized entropy and normalized q-expectation values, we study the relativistic nonextensive thermodynamics and derive a Boltzmann transport…
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 role played by non extensive thermodynamics in physical systems has been under intense debate for the last decades. With many applications in several areas, the Tsallis statistics has been discussed in details in many works and…
We compute the internal energy of different Ising type models, both long-range and short-range, under Tsallis statistics using the microcanonical and the canonical ensembles and we discuss under which conditions both ensembles give…
The underlying connection between the degrees of freedom of a system and its nonextensive thermodynamic behavior is addressed. The problem is handled by starting from a thermodynamical system with fractal structure and its analytical…
Statistical formulations of thermodynamic entropy, such as those by Boltzmann and Gibbs, were originally developed for classical systems and are well understood in that context. However, the foundational aspects of quantum statistical…
The Renyi statistics in the canonical and microcanonical ensembles is examined in the general case and in particular for the ideal gas. In the microcanonical ensemble the Renyi statistics is equivalent with the Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics.…
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…
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…
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…
Nonadditive Tsallis $q$-statistics has successfully been applied for a plethora of systems in natural sciences and other branches of knowledge. Nevertheless, its foundations have been severely criticised by some authors based on the…

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,…
