On a representation of the inverse Fq transform

A recent generalization of the Central Limit Theorem consistent with nonextensive statistical mechanics has been recently achieved through a generalized Fourier transform, noted $q$-Fourier transform. A representation formula for the inverse $q$-Fourier transform is here obtained in the class of functions $\mathcal{G}=\bigcup_{1\le q<3}\mathcal{G}_q,$ where $\mathcal{G}_{q}=\{f = a e_{q}^{-\beta x2}, \, a>0, \, \beta>0 \}$. This constitutes a first step towards a general representation of the inverse $q$-Fourier operation, which would enable interesting physical and other applications.Comment: 4 page

About an alternative distribution function for fractional exclusion statistics

We show that it is possible to replace the actual implicit distribution function of the fractional exclusion statistics by an explicit one whose form does not change with the parameter $\alpha$. This alternative simpler distribution function given by a generalization of Pauli exclusion principle from the level of the maximal occupation number is not completely equivalent to the distributions obtained from the level of state number counting of the fractional exclusion particles. Our result shows that the two distributions are equivalent for weakly bosonized fermions ($\alpha>>0$) at not very high temperatures.Comment: 8 pages, 3 eps figures, TeX.

How to proceed with nonextensive systems at equilibrium?

In this paper, we show that 1) additive energy is not appropriate for discussing the validity of Tsallis or R\'enyi statistics for nonextensive systems at meta-equilibrium; 2) $N$-body systems with nonadditive energy or entropy should be described by generalized statistics whose nature is prescribed by the existence of thermodynamic stationarity. 3) the equivalence of Tsallis and R\'enyi entropies is in general not true.Comment: 14 pages, TEX, no figur

On the generalized entropy pseudoadditivity for complex systems

We show that Abe's general pseudoadditivity for entropy prescribed by thermal equilibrium in nonextensive systems holds not only for entropy, but also for energy. The application of this general pseudoadditivity to Tsallis entropy tells us that the factorization of the probability of a composite system into product of the probabilities of the subsystems is just a consequence of the existence of thermal equilibrium and not due to the independence of the subsystems.Comment: 8 pages, no figure, RevTe

κ\kappa-generalization of Gauss' law of error

Based on the $\kappa$-deformed functions ($\kappa$-exponential and $\kappa$-logarithm) and associated multiplication operation ($\kappa$-product) introduced by Kaniadakis (Phys. Rev. E \textbf{66} (2002) 056125), we present another one-parameter generalization of Gauss' law of error. The likelihood function in Gauss' law of error is generalized by means of the $\kappa$-product. This $\kappa$-generalized maximum likelihood principle leads to the {\it so-called} $\kappa$-Gaussian distributions.Comment: 9 pages, 1 figure, latex file using elsart.cls style fil
