Abstract

This paper is a continuation of papers UmarovTsallisSteinberg,UmarovTsallisGellmannSteinberg. In Part I UmarovTsallisGellmannSteinberg a description (representation) of (q,α)-stable distributions based on a Fq-transform was given. Here, in Part II, we present another description of these distributions. This approach generalizes results of UmarovTsallisSteinberg (which corresponds to α=2, Q∈ [1,3)) to the whole range of stability and nonextensivity parameters α∈ (0,2] and Q ∈ [1,3), respectively. The present case α=2 recovers the q-Gaussian distributions. Similar to what is discussed in UmarovTsallisSteinberg, a triplet (q,q,q) arises for which the mapping Fq: Gq Gq holds. Moreover, by unifying the two preceding descriptions, further possible extensions are discussed and some conjectures are formulated.
