Physical quantities obtained from the microcanonical entropy surfaces of classical spin systems show typical features of phase transitions already in finite systems. It is demonstrated that the singular behaviour of the microcanonically defined order parameter and susceptibility can be understood from a Taylor expansion of the entropy surface. The general form of the expansion is determined fro...

Maximum entropy procedures for estimating coarse-grain parameters from molecular dynamics (MD) simulation data are considered within the specific context of the sequence-dependent cgDNA rigid-base model of DNA. We describe a quite general approach that exploits a maximum absolute entropy principle to fit an observed matrix of covariances subject to the constraint of only allowing a prescribed s...

information on water quality and pollution sources is important for the implementation of sustainable water resource management strategies. in this research, to evaluate spatial variation and the interpretation of large complex water quality data taken at seven different sites along the gorganrood river were subjected to multivariate statistical analysis. the factor analysis generated two signi...

The requirement that an entropy function be composable is key: it means that the entropy of a compound system can be calculated in terms of the entropy of its independent components. We prove that, under mild regularity assumptions, the only composable generalized entropy in trace form is the Tsallis one-parameter family (which contains Boltzmann–Gibbs as a particular case). This result leads t...

We apply Shannon entropy, an information content measure, in sensitivity analysis (SA), stemming from the fact that the essence of SA is to preserve the maximum information content of the parameters of interest that are inverted from the radar response. Then, the sensitivity to the observation configuration and surface parameters is subsequently analyzed. Attempts are also made to explore advan...

A parametrically extended entanglement measure due to Tsallis relative entropy in quantum system is proposed and then its properties with respect to the parameter q are shown. The relation between it and the relative entropy of entanglement is studied.

Tsallis relative operator entropy is defined and then its properties are given. Shannon inequality and its reverse one in Hilbert space operators derived by T.Furuta [4] are extended in terms of the parameter of the Tsallis relative operator entropy. Moreover the generalized Tsallis relative operator entropy is introduced and then several operator inequalities are derived.

Kullback–Leibler relative-entropy has unique properties in cases involving distributions resulting from relative-entropy minimization. Tsallis relative-entropy is a one-parameter generalization of Kullback–Leibler relative-entropy in the nonextensive thermostatistics. In this paper, we present the properties of Tsallis relative-entropy minimization and present some differences with the classica...
