Kaniadakis statistics represents a significant extension of classical statistical mechanics. At its core is the concept of a κ-deformation, which generalises the traditional Boltzmann–Gibbs framework ...

In this paper, we introduce a quantile version of past entropy for order statistics and study some of its properties. It is shown that this measure uniquely determine the quantile function. Two ...

In a study published in Physical Review Letters, physicists have demonstrated that black holes satisfy the third law of ...

Entropy also increases in initially ordered quantum systems until it reaches a final state of disorder. Entropy and the direction of time Equating 'entropy' with 'disorder' is not entirely correct.

The second law of thermodynamics is one of those puzzling laws of nature that simply emerges from the fundamental rules. It says that entropy, a measure of disorder in the Universe, must always ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract M. E. D. Poore's classical idea of successive approximation is revisited in the context of ecosystem survey, process sampling, sample ...

What is the concept of entropy? Embedded-system applications that exploit entropy. How to implement entropy. What sources of entropy are available? Computers are designed to be predictable. Under the ...

Looking back a variety of distances corresponds to a variety of times since the Big Bang. Entropy has always increased from any moment to the next, but that doesn't mean that the Big Bang began with ...
