The Physical Meaning of the Rényi Relative Entropy

Abstract: The Boltzmann-Gibbs relative entropy provides the difference between the offequilibrium and equilibrium free energy terms associated with Boltzmann-Gibbs entropy. In this work, we studied whether this physical meaning can be given to Rényi relative entropy definition. We find that this is possible only in the limit as q approaches to 1. This shows that Rényi relative entropy has a physical meaning only when the system can already be explained by ordinary Boltzmann-Gibbs entropy. We also note that this result i… Show more
