    Non-Extensive Quantum Statistics with Particle - Hole Symmetry

    Full text link
    Based on Tsallis entropy and the corresponding deformed exponential function, generalized distribution functions for bosons and fermions have been used since a while. However, aiming at a non-extensive quantum statistics further requirements arise from the symmetric handling of particles and holes (excitations above and below the Fermi level). Naive replacements of the exponential function or cut and paste solutions fail to satisfy this symmetry and to be smooth at the Fermi level at the same time. We solve this problem by a general ansatz dividing the deformed exponential to odd and even terms and demonstrate that how earlier suggestions, like the kappa- and q-exponential behave in this respect

    Deformed quantum mechanics and q-Hermitian operators

    Full text link
    Starting on the basis of the non-commutative q-differential calculus, we introduce a generalized q-deformed Schr\"odinger equation. It can be viewed as the quantum stochastic counterpart of a generalized classical kinetic equation, which reproduces at the equilibrium the well-known q-deformed exponential stationary distribution. In this framework, q-deformed adjoint of an operator and q-hermitian operator properties occur in a natural way in order to satisfy the basic quantum mechanics assumptions.Comment: 10 page

    Variational representations related to Tsallis relative entropy

    Full text link
    We develop variational representations for the deformed logarithmic and exponential functions and use them to obtain variational representations related to the quantum Tsallis relative entropy. We extend Golden-Thompson's trace inequality to deformed exponentials with deformation parameter q[0,1], q\in[0,1], thus complementing the second author's previous study of the cases with deformation parameter q[1,2] q \in [1,2] or $ q \in [2,3].

    Quantum statistical manifolds: the linear growth case

    Full text link
    A class of vector states on a von Neumann algebra is constructed. These states belong to a deformed exponential family. One specific deformation is considered. It makes the exponential function asymptotically linear. Difficulties arising due to non-commutativity are highlighted.Comment: 24 pages, 12pt, A4; improved version, now making use of the commutant algebr

    Special Deformed Exponential Functions Leading to More Consistent Klauder's Coherent States

    Full text link
    We give a general approach for the construction of deformed oscillators. These ones could be seen as describing deformed bosons. Basing on new definitions of certain quantum series, we demonstrate that they are nothing but the ordinary exponential functions in the limit when the deformation parameters goes to one. We also prove that these series converge to a complex function, in a given convergence radius that we calculate. Klauder's Coherent States are explicitly found through these functions that we design by deformed exponential functionsComment: 10 page

    The maximization of Tsallis entropy with complete deformed functions and the problem of constraints

    Full text link
    We first observe that the (co)domains of the q-deformed functions are some subsets of the (co)domains of their ordinary counterparts, thereby deeming the deformed functions to be incomplete. In order to obtain a complete definition of qq-generalized functions, we calculate the dual mapping function, which is found equal to the otherwise \textit{ad hoc} duality relation between the ordinary and escort stationary distributions. Motivated by this fact, we show that the maximization of the Tsallis entropy with the complete qq-logarithm and qq-exponential implies the use of the ordinary probability distributions instead of escort distributions. Moreover, we demonstrate that even the escort stationary distributions can be obtained through the use of the ordinary averaging procedure if the argument of the qq-exponential lies in (-\infty, 0].Comment: 7 page
