It is shown that a probability distribution can be invariant in the thermodynamic limit if there is no long term interaction or correlation and no relativistic effect. So this invariance should not be considered as a universal theoretical property. Some peculiarities within the invariant

The entropy change in time due to the fractal geometry is assimilated to the information growth through the scale reÿnement. Due to the incompleteness of the state number counting at any scale on fractal support, the incomplete normalization i p q i =1 is applied throughout the paper, where q is the fractal dimension divided by the dimension of the smooth Euclidean space in which the fractal structure of the phase space is embedded. It is shown that the information growth is nonadditive and is proportional to the trace-form i pi − i p q i which can be connected to several nonadditive entropies. This information growth can be extremized to give power-law distributions for these nonequilibrium systems. It can also be used for the study of the thermodynamics derived from Tsallis entropy for nonadditive systems which contain subsystems each having its own q. It is argued that, within this thermodynamics, the Stefan-Boltzmann law of blackbody radiation can be preserved.

Research paper thumbnail of Understanding Heavy Fermion from Generalized Statistics

Journal of Low Temperature Physics, 2008

Numerical results have shown that the Fermi surface of these correlated particles undergoes a flattening effect according to the coupling degree J. This behaviour is not easy to understand from the theoretical point of view within standard Fermi-Dirac statistics and non-standard theories such as fractional exclusion statistics for anyons and Tsallis nonextensive statistics. The present work is an attempt to account for the heavy electron distribution within incomplete statistics (IS) which is developed for complex systems with interactions which make the statistics incomplete such that 1 1 = ∑ = w i q i p . The parameter q, when different from unity, characterizes the incompleteness of the statistics. It is shown that the correlated electrons can be described with the help of IS with q related to the coupling constant J in the context of Kondo model.

Research paper thumbnail of A Nonextensive Approach to Bose-Einstein Condensation of Trapped Interacting Boson Gas

The S-wave collision model fails sometimes to account for the condensation temperatures. In this work, we look at the problem within the nonextensive statistics which is considered as a possible theory describing interacting systems. The generalized energy U q and the particle number N q of boson gas are given in terms of the nonextensive parameter q. q>1 (q<1) implies repulsive (attractive) interaction with respect to the perfect gas. The generalized condensation temperature T cq is derived versus T c given by the perfect gas theory. Thanks to the observed condensation temperatures, we find q ≈ 0.1 for 87 Rb atomic gas, q ≈ 0.95 for 7 Li and q ≈ 0.62 for 23 Na. It is concluded that the effective interactions are essentially attractive for the three considered atoms, which is consistent with the observed temperatures higher than those predicted by the conventional theory.
