q-Calculus Framework For Entropy In Multifractal Distributions
Abstract
The connection between Tsallis entropy for a multifractal distribution and Jackson's q-derivative is established. Based on this derivation and definition of a homogeneous function, a q-analogue of Shannon's entropy is discussed. q-additivity of this entropy is shown. We also define q-analogue of Kullback relative entropy. The implications of lattice structure beneath q-calculus are highlighted in the context of q-entropy.
