Thermodynamical and Nonthermodynamical Applications

  • Chapter
Introduction to Nonextensive Statistical Mechanics
  • 2032 Accesses

The nature of the present chapter is quite different from all the others of the book.

In all its other Chapters we have privileged the presentation and understanding of nonextensive statistical mechanics itself, and of some of its delicate and unusual concepts. In the present chapter, we focus on the concrete and typical applications that are available in the literature, as well as on some connections that have emerged along time with other areas such as quantum chaos, quantum entanglement, random matrices, theory of networks.
