Aim and Scope
Mathematical structure of statistics associated to the generalized entropy proposed
by Tsallis is now recognized not only to extend the framework of statistical physics
to a certain direction but also to have connections with many other areas in mathematical science,
such as information theory, multi-fractal, chaos, quantum group, information geometry and so on.
The workshop aims to elucidate the meaning of the mathematical structure and
discuss its applications from viewpoints of such areas.

The workshop is sponsored by
Research Institute of Mathematical Science (RIMS) , Kyoto University
and
the Ministry of Education, Science, Sports and Culture, Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (B), 18300003, 2009.

Organizing Committee
Hiroki Suyari (Chiba University, Japan),
Atsumi Ohara (Osaka University, Japan),
Tatsuaki Wada (Ibaraki University, Japan),
