Twenty Years of Kaniadakis Entropy

Overview & Synopsis

Entropy is publishing a Special Issue in honor of the twentieth anniversary of Kaniadakis entropy’s introduction. This then-new entropy is one of the most viable candidates for explaining the experimentally observed power-law-tailed statistical distributions in various physical, natural, and artificial complex systems. In this reprint, readers can find information about the recent applications of Kaniadakis entropy in mechanical statistics, high-energy physics, cosmology, information geometry, biology, and economic sciences. We hope that the papers gathered in this Special Issue may inspire the reader and encourage them to continue the development of this expanding field of statistical physics.
