According to the probabilistic arguments of Tsallis and Bukman [C.Tsallis, D.J. Bukman, Phys. Rev. E 54,R2197 (1996)] these processes are subdiffusional in nature. The non-extensive generalization of the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy yielding the same entropic index implies the stationary condition. We note, on the other hand, that enforcing the stationary property on subdiffusion has the effect of producing a localization process occurring within a finite time scale. We thus conclude that the stationary dynamic processes with Q<1 must undergo a localization process occurring at finite time. We check the validity of this conclusion by means of a numerical treatment of the dynamics of the logistic map at the critical point.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1999-07-29T14:18:28.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "stationary processes", "non-extensive thermodynamics", "localization process occurring", "finite time scale", "stationary dynamic processes" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1016/S0960-0779(99)00163-0", "journal": "Chaos Solitons and Fractals", "year": 2000, "month": "Nov", "volume": 11, "number": 14, "pages": 2361 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2000CSF....11.2361F" } } }
