Central Limit Behavior at the Edge of Chaos in the Z-Logistic Map
(American Physical Society, 2025) Saberi, Abbas Ali; Tirnakli, Ugur; Tsallis, Constantino
We focus on the Feigenbaum-Coullet-Tresser point of the dissipative one-dimensional z-logistic map x(t+1) = 1-a|x(t )|(z) (z 1). We show that sums of iterates converge to q-Gaussian distributions P-q(y) = P-q(0) exp(q)(-beta(q)y(2)) = P-q(0 )[1 + (q-1)beta(q) y(2)](1/(1-q))(q >= 1; beta(q) > 0), which optimize the nonadditive entropic functional Sq under simple constraints. We propose and justify heuristically a closed-form prediction for the entropic index, q(z) = 1 + 2/(z + 1), and validate it numerically via data collapse for typical z values. The formula captures how the limiting law depends on the nonlinearity order and implies finite variance for z > 2 and divergent variance for 1 <= z <= 2. These results extend edge-of-chaos central limit behavior beyond the standard (z = 2) case and provide a simple predictive law for unimodal maps with varying maximum order.
Fourier's Law Breakdown for the Planar-Rotor Chain With Long-Range Interactions
(Elsevier, 2026) Lima, Henrique Santos; Tsallis, Constantino; Eroglu, Deniz; Tirnakli, Ugur
Fourier's law, which linearly relates heat flux to the negative gradient of temperature, is a fundamental principle in thermal physics and widely applied across materials science and engineering. However, its validity in low-dimensional systems with long-range interactions remains only partially understood. We investigate here the thermal transport along a onedimensional chain of classical planar rotators with algebraically decaying interactions 1/ with distance ( >= 0), known as the inertial a-XY model. Using nonequilibrium simulations with thermal reservoirs at the boundaries, we numerically study the thermal conductance as a function of system sizea, temperature , and . We find that the results obey a universal scaling law characterized by a stretched-exponential function with -dependent parameters. Notably, a threshold at approximate to 2 separates two regimes: for >= , Fourier's law holds with size-independent conductivity = , while for < , anomalous transport is observed, corroborating (with higher precision) the results reported in Phys.Rev.E94,042117(2016). These findings provide a quantitative framework for understanding the breakdown of Fourier's law in systems with long-range interactions. The simulation is carried out by assuming the equations of motion, which include Langevin heat baths applied to the first and last particles, and are integrated using the Velocity Verlet algorithm. The conductance is calculated from the connection between Lagrangian heat flux and heat equation for typical values of (, , ). For large , the results can be collapsed into an universal -stretched exponential form, namely proportional to -() , where = [1 + (1-)]1/(1-). The parameters (, , ,) are -dependent, and is the index of the -stretched exponential. This form is achievable due to the ratio /( - 1) being almost constant with respect to the lattice size. These findings provide significant insights into heat conduction mechanisms in systems with long-range interactions.

The Statistics of Q-Statistics
(MDPI, 2024) Borges, Ernesto P.; Tirnakli, Ugur; Eroglu, Deniz; Boghosian, Bruce M.
Almost two decades ago, Ernesto P. Borges and Bruce M. Boghosian embarked on the intricate task of composing a manuscript to honor the profound contributions of Constantino Tsallis to the realm of statistical physics, coupled with a concise exploration of q-Statistics. Fast-forward to Constantino Tsallis' illustrious 80th birthday celebration in 2023, where Deniz Eroglu and Ugur Tirnakli delved into Constantino's collaborative network, injecting renewed vitality into the project. With hearts brimming with appreciation for Tsallis' enduring inspiration, Eroglu, Boghosian, Borges, and Tirnakli proudly present this meticulously crafted manuscript as a token of their gratitude.
