“…In the last twelve years various authors have considered the foundations of the statistical theory based on the κdistribution, in connection with the historical evolution of the research on the power-law tailed statistical distributions [7,11] e.g. the H-theorem and the molecular chaos hypothesis [12,13], the thermodynamic stability [14,15], the Lesche stability [16][17][18][19], the Legendre structure of the ensued thermodynamics [20,21], the thermodynamics of nonequilibrium systems [22], quantum versions of the theory [23][24][25][26], the geometrical structure of the theory [27], various mathematical aspects of the theory [28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36], etc. On the other hand specific applications to physical systems have been considered, e.g.…”
