The connection between Tsallis entropy for a multifractal distribution and Jackson’s q-derivative is established. Based on this derivation and definition of a homogeneous function, a q-analogue of Shannon’s entropy is discussed. q-additivity of this entropy is shown. We also define q-analogue of Kullback relative entropy. The implications of lattice structure beneath q-calculus are highlighted ...

Material of the paederine genus Lathrobium Gravenhorst, 1802 from the Chinese province of Guangxi is examined. Five apterous species are identified, two of which are described as new to science: L. damingense Peng & Li sp. n. (Daming Shan) and L. hujiayaoi Peng & Li sp. n. (Maoer Shan). The female sexual characters of L. proprium Peng & Li are described and illustrated for the first time. With ...

in this paper we introduce the concept of entropy operator for continuous systems of finite topological entropy. it is shown that it generates the kolmogorov entropy as a special case. if $phi$ is invertible then the entropy operator is bounded with the topological entropy of $phi$ as its norm.
