Book Synopsis Nonextensive Entropy by : Murray Gell-Mann

Download or read book Nonextensive Entropy written by Murray Gell-Mann and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2004-04-15 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A great variety of complex phenomena in many scientific fields exhibit power-law behavior, reflecting a hierarchical or fractal structure. Many of these phenomena seem to be susceptible to description using approaches drawn from thermodynamics or statistical mechanics, particularly approaches involving the maximization of entropy and of Boltzmann-Gibbs statistical mechanics and standard laws in a natural way. The book addresses the interdisciplinary applications of these ideas, and also on various phenomena that could possibly be quantitatively describable in terms of these ideas.
