Connections between Tsallis' formalisms employing the standard linear average energy and ones employing the normalized $q$-average energy

Abstract

Tsallis' thermostatistics with the standard linear average energy is revisited by employing $S_{2-q}$, which is the Tsallis entropy with $q$ replaced by $2-q$. We explore the connections among the $S_{2-q}$ approach and the other different versions of Tsallis formalisms. It is shown that the normalized $q$-average energy and the standard linear average energy are related to each other. The relations among the Lagrange multipliers of the different versions are revealed. The relevant Legendre transform structures concerning the Lagrange multipliers associated with the normalization of probability are studied. It is shown that the generalized Massieu potential associated with $S_{2-q}$ and the linear average energy is related to one associated with the normalized Tsallis entropy and the normalized $q$-average energy.
