TitleIntroduction to Nonextensive Statistical Mechanics : Approaching a Complex World
Author(s)Tsallis, Constantino
PublicationCham, 1. Imprint: Springer 2. Springer International Publishing, 2023.
DescriptionXVII, 569 p. 372 illus., 208 illus. in color : online resource
Abstract NoteMetaphors, generalizations and unifications are natural and desirable ingredients of the evolution of scientific theories and concepts. Physics in particular has walked along these paths since its very beginning. This book focuses on nonextensive statistical mechanics, a current generalization of Boltzmann-Gibbs (BG) statistical mechanics. Conceived nearly 150 years ago by Maxwell, Boltzmann and Gibbs, the BG theory, one of the greatest monuments of contemporary physics, exhibits many impressive successes in physics, chemistry, mathematics, and computational sciences. Presently, several thousands of publications by scientists around the world have been dedicated to its nonextensive generalization. A variety of applications have emerged in complex systems and its mathematical grounding is by now well advanced. Since the first edition release thirteen years ago, there has been a vast amount of new results in the field, all of which have been incorporated in thiscomprehensive second edition. Heavily revised and updated with new sections and figures, the second edition remains the go-to text on the subject. A pedagogical introduction to the BG theory concepts and their generalizations ??? nonlinear dynamics, extensivity of the nonadditive entropy, global correlations, generalization of the standard CLT???s, complex networks, among others ??? is presented in this book, as well as a selection of paradigmatic applications in various sciences together with diversified experimental verifications of some of its predictions. Introduction to Nonextensive Statistical Mechanics is suitable for students and researchers with an interest in complex systems and statistical physics

TitleIntroduction to Nonextensive Statistical Mechanics : Approaching a Complex World
Author(s)Tsallis, Constantino
PublicationNew York, NY, Springer New York, 2009.
DescriptionXVIII, 382 p. 238 illus., 40 illus. in color : online resource
Abstract NoteThis book focuses on nonextensive statistical mechanics, a current generalization of Boltzmann-Gibbs (BG) statistical mechanics, one of the greatest monuments of contemporary physics. Conceived more than 130 years ago by Maxwell, Boltzmann and Gibbs, the BG theory exhibits many impressive successes in physics, chemistry, mathematics, and computational sciences. Presently, several thousands of publications by scientists around the world have been dedicated to its nonextensive generalization. A variety of applications have emerged in complex systems and its mathematical grounding is by now well advanced. A pedagogical introduction to its concepts ??? nonlinear dynamics, extensivity of the nonadditive entropy, global correlations, and extensions of the standard central limit theorems, among others ??? is presented in this book, as well as a selection of paradigmatic applications in various sciences and diversified experimental verifications of some of its predictions. Introduction to Nonextensive Statistical Mechanics is suitable for students and researchers with an interest in complex systems and statistical physics
