Properties of convergence of nonextensive statistical distribution to the Levy distribution

arXiv:cond-mat/0003303

Abstract

It is shown that the distribution derived from the principle of maximum Tsallis entropy is a superposable Levy-type distribution. Concomitantly, the leading order correction to the limit distribution is also deduced. This demonstration fills an important gap in the derivation of the Levy-stable distribution from the nonextensive statistical framework.
