  • Abstract
    The uniqueness theorem for Tsallis entropy was presented in H. Suyari, IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory, vol. 50, pp. 1783-1787, Aug. 2004 by introducing the generalized Shannon-Khinchin axiom. In the present correspondence, this result is generalized and simplified as follows: Generalization : The uniqueness theorem for Tsallis relative entropy is shown by means of the generalized Hobson´s axiom. Simplification: The uniqueness theorem for Tsallis entropy is shown by means of the generalized Faddeev´s axiom
