Universality Classes and Information-Theoretic Measures of Complexity via Group Entropies

We introduce a class of information measures based on group entropies, allowing us to describe the information-theoretical properties of complex systems. These entropic measures are nonadditive, and are mathematically deduced from a series of natural axioms. In addition, we require extensivity in or...

Sumario:We introduce a class of information measures based on group entropies, allowing us to describe the information-theoretical properties of complex systems. These entropic measures are nonadditive, and are mathematically deduced from a series of natural axioms. In addition, we require extensivity in order to ensure that our information measures are meaningful. The entropic measures proposed are suitably defined for describing universality classes of complex systems, each characterized by a specific state space growth rate function.
