Nonadditive entropy: the concept and its use

Constantino Tsallis

The entropic form is, for any , {\it nonadditive}. Indeed, for two probabilistically independent subsystems, it satisfies $S_q(A+B)/k=[S_q(A)/k]+[S_q(B)/k]+(1-q)[S_…

A simple branching model that reproduces language family and language population distributions

V. Schwämmle, P. M. C. de Oliveira

Human history leaves fingerprints in human languages. Little is known over language evolution and its study is of great importance. Here, we construct a simple stochastic model and…

Connectivity and Dynamics of Neuronal Networks as Defined by the Shape of Individual Neurons

Sebastian Ahnert, Luciano da Fontoura Costa

Neuronal networks constitute a special class of dynamical systems, as they are formed by individual geometrical components, namely the neurons. In the existing literature, relative…

The Web of Connections between Tourism Companies in Elba: Structure and Dynamics

Luciano da Fontoura Costa, Rodolfo Baggio

Tourism destination networks are amongst the most complex dynamical systems, involving a myriad of human-made and natural resources. In this work we report a complex network-based…

Escort mean values and the characterization of power-law-decaying probability densities

Constantino Tsallis, Angel R. Plastino, Ramon F. Alvarez-Estrada

Escort mean values (or -moments) constitute useful theoretical tools for describing basic features of some probability densities such as those which asymptotically decay like {\…

A closer look at time averages of the logistic map at the edge of chaos

Ugur Tirnakli, Constantino Tsallis, Christian Beck

The probability distribution of sums of iterates of the logistic map at the edge of chaos has been recently shown [see U. Tirnakli, C. Beck and C. Tsallis, Phys. Rev. E 75, 040106(…
