Invertible mappings and the large deviation theory for the qq-maximum entropy principle

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

The possibility of reconciliation between canonical probability distributions obtained from the qq-maximum entropy principle with predictions from the law of large numbers when empirical samples are held to the same constraints, is investigated into. Canonical probability distributions are constrained by both: (i)(i) the additive duality of generalized statistics and (ii)(ii) normal averages expectations. Necessary conditions to establish such a reconciliation are derived by appealing to a result concerning large deviation properties of conditional measures. The (dual) q∗q^*-maximum entropy principle is shown {\bf not} to adhere to the large deviation theory. However, the necessary conditions are proven to constitute an invertible mapping between: (i)(i) a canonical ensemble satisfying the q∗q^*-maximum entropy principle for energy-eigenvalues εi∗\varepsilon_i^*, and, (ii)(ii) a canonical ensemble satisfying the Shannon-Jaynes maximum entropy theory for energy-eigenvalues εi\varepsilon_i. Such an invertible mapping is demonstrated to facilitate an \emph{implicit} reconciliation between the q∗q^*-maximum entropy principle and the large deviation theory. Numerical examples for exemplary cases are provided.
