An appropriate redefinition of the Lagrange multipliers entering the q-MaxEnt variational treatment neatly reconciles his formalism with classical thermodynamics. The non-extensive approach is seen to reproduce classical results for all q-values.

It is suggested that thermodynamical equilibrium equals game theoretical equilibrium. Aspects of this thesis are discussed. The philosophy is consistent with maximum entropy thinking of Jaynes, but goes one step deeper by deriving the maximum entropy principle from an underlying game theoretical...
