The uniqueness theorem for a two-parameter extended relative entropy is proven. This result extends our previous one, the uniqueness theorem for a one-parameter extended relative entropy, to a two-parameter case. In addition, the properties…
In order to study as a whole a wide part of entropy measures, we introduce a two-parameter non-extensive entropic form with respect to the $h$-derivative, which generalizes the conventional Newton--Leibniz calculus. This new entropy,…
Based on the generalized Boltzmann equation and the reverse function of the distribution function, we investigate the two-parameter generalized statistics and get an expression between the two parameters (k,r) and the physical quantities…
We investigate a two-parameter entropy introduced by Schw\"{a}mmle and Tsallis and obtain its probability distribution in the canonical ensemble. The probability distribution is given in terms of the Lambert W-function which has been used…
In order to apply thermodynamics to systems in which entropy is not extensive, it has become customary to define generalized entropies. While this approach has been effective, it is not the only possible approach. We suggest that some…
This article proposes a new two-parameter generalized entropy, which can be reduced to the Tsallis and the Shannon entropy for specific values of its parameters. We develop a number of information-theoretic properties of this generalized…
We develop information-theoretic measures of spatial structure and pattern in more than one dimension. As is well known, the entropy density of a two-dimensional configuration can be efficiently and accurately estimated via a converging…
In a recent Letter [1] a framework for estimating entropy was introduced and applied to one-dimensional and two-dimensional systems. In this Comment we show that the method is not well suited for estimating entropy in bidimensional systems…
We propose a new way of defining entropy of a system, which gives a general form which may be nonextensive as Tsallis entropy, but is linearly dependent on component entropies, like Renyi entropy, which is extensive. This entropy has a…
We consider the joint density distribution of the elements of certain random matrix models which are example of globally correlated and asymptotically scale-invariant distributions. It is shown that in their cases, the nonadditive entropy…
It exists a large class of systems for which the traditional notion of extensivity breaks down. From experimental examples we induce two general hypothesis concerning such systems. In the first the existence of an internal coordinate system…
We consider some classes of piecewise expanding maps in finite dimensional spaces having invariant probability measures which are absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure. We derive an entropy formula for such measures and,…
It is known that the nonextensive statistics was originally formulated for the systems composed of subsystems having same $q$. In this paper, the existence of composite system with different $q$ subsystems is investigated by fitting the…
Entropy and relative or cross entropy measures are two very fundamental concepts in information theory and are also widely used for statistical inference across disciplines. The related optimization problems, in particular the maximization…
Finding the entropy rate of Hidden Markov Processes is an active research topic, of both theoretical and practical importance. A recently used approach is studying the asymptotic behavior of the entropy rate in various regimes. In this…
The Boltzmann--Gibbs entropy is a functional on the space of probability measures. When a state space is countable, one characterization of the Boltzmann--Gibbs entropy is given by the Shannon--Khinchin axioms, which consist of continuity,…
During the past dozen years there have been numerous articles on a relation between entropy and probability which is non-additive and has a parameter $q$ that depends on the nature of the thermodynamic system under consideration. For $q=1$…
We shall show that a two-parameter extended entropy function is characterized by a functional equation. As a corollary of this result, we obtain that the Tsallis entropy function is characterized by a functional equation, which is a…
Examples of joint probability distributions are studied in terms of Tsallis' nonextensive statistics both for correlated and uncorrelated variables, in particular it is explicitely shown how correlations in the system can make Tsallis…
