A Shannon-Tsallis transformation

Abstract

We determine a general link between two different solutions of the MaxEnt variational problem, namely, the ones that correspond to using either Shannon's or Tsallis' entropies in the concomitant variational problem. It is shown that the two variations lead to equivalent solutions that take different appearances but contain the same information. These solutions are linked by our transformation.
