Description
I present my personal view on non-extensive thermodynamics, where generalized canonical statistical factors replace the exponential function. By generalizing the familiar factor, exp(−E/T), in counting the relative occurrence frequency of states with energy E at temperature T one encounters primarily mathematical challenges. However, it is of equal importance to built up the formalism on physical phenomena, with an ample number of particular examples from the physical world. This motivates to show simple theoretical problems first and then gradually generalize. At the end alternative entropy formulas are presented.
