The form invariance of pseudoadditivity is shown to determine the structure of nonextensive entropies. Nonextensive entropy is defined as the appropriate expectation value of nonextensive information content, similar to the definition of Shannon entropy. Information content in a nonextensive system is obtained uniquely from generalized axioms by replacing the usual additivity with pseudoadditiv...

The local structure entropy is a new method which is proposed to identify the influential nodes in the complex networks. In this paper a new form of the local structure entropy of the complex networks is proposed based on the Tsallis entropy. The value of the entropic index q will influence the property of the local structure entropy. When the value of q is equal to 0, the nonextensive local st...

Generalized Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac distributions in nonextensive quantum statistics have been discussed by the maximum-entropy method (MEM) with the optimum Lagrange multiplier based on the exact integral representation [A. K. Rajagopal, R. S. Mendes, and E. K. Lenzi, Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 3907 (1998)]. It has been shown that the (q-1) expansion in the exact approach agrees with the resul...

We seek to utilize the nonextensive statistics to the microscopic modeling of the interacting many-investor dynamics that drive the price changes in a market. The statistics of price changes are known to be fit well by the Students-T and power-law distributions of the nonextensive statistics. We therefore derive models of interacting investors that are based on the nonextensive statistics and w...

We have conducted experiments on an asymmetrically forced quasi-two-dimensional turbulent flow in a rapidly rotating annulus. Assuming conservation of potential enstrophy and energy, we maximize a nonextensive entropy function to obtain the azimuthally averaged vorticity as a function of radial position. The predicted vorticity profile is in good accord with the observations. A nonextensive for...

Using Rényi entropy, an alternative thermo-statistics to Tsallis one for nonextensive systems at equilibrium is discussed. We show that it is possible to have the q-exponential distribution function for equilibrium nonextensive systems having nonadditive energy but additive entropy. It is also shown that additive energy makes no sense and is not suitable for interacting systems described by non...

Bose-Einstein (BE) and Fermi-Dirac (FD) distributions in nonextensive quantum statistics have been discussed with the use of exact integral representations for the grand canonical partition function [Rajagopal, Mendes and Lenzi, Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 3907 (1998)]. Integrals along real axis in the case of q > 1.0 are modified by an appropriate change of variable, which makes numerical calculation...

Using Rényi entropy, an alternative thermo-statistics to Tsallis one for nonextensive systems at equilibrium is discussed. We show that it is possible to have the q-exponential distribution function for equilibrium nonextensive systems having nonadditive energy but additive entropy. It is also shown that additive energy, as a approximation within nonextensive statistics, is not suitable for dis...

Nonextensive statistics has been becoming a very useful tool to describe the complexity of dynamic systems. Recently, analysis of the magnitude distribution of earthquakes has been increasingly used in the context of nonextensivity. In the present paper, the nonextensive analysis of the southern California earthquake catalog was performed. The results show that the nonextensivity parameter q li...
