A monoparametric family of metrics for statistical mechanics

In a recent paper, we have studied a generalization of the Jensen–Shannon divergence (JSD) (Physica A 329 (2003) 81). This generalization was made in the context of Tsallis’ statistical mechanics. The present work is devoted to an investigation of the metric character of the JSD generalization.
