However, employing the Lagrange multiplier method, it is judged that neither yields the q-exponential distributions that have been observed for many physical systems. Consequently, two generalized entropies under complete and incomplete probability normalization conditions are proposed to meet the experimental observations. These two entropic forms are Lesche stable, which means that both vary continuously with probability distribution functions and are thus physically meaningful.展开更多
