Thermodynamic non-additivity in disordered systems
Abstract
Description
It is shown that there is a mapping of the replica approach to disordered systems with finite replica index $n$ on the Tsallis non-extensive statistics, if the average thermodynamic entropy differs from the information entropy for the probability distribution. In the case of incomplete information the entropic index $q=1-n$ is shown to be related to the degree of lost information.
