Symmetric $(q,α)$-Stable Distributions. Part II: Second Representation

Authors

Description

This paper is a continuation of papers \cite{UmarovTsallisSteinberg,UmarovTsallisGellmannSteinberg}. In Part I \cite{UmarovTsallisGellmannSteinberg} a description (representation) of $(q,α)$-stable distributions based on a $F_q$-transform was given. Here, in Part II, we present another description of these distributions. This approach generalizes results of \cite{UmarovTsallisSteinberg} (which corresponds to $α=2, Q\in [1,3)$) to the whole range of stability and nonextensivity parameters $α\in (0,2]$ and $Q \in [1,3),$ respectively. The present case $α=2$ recovers the $q$-Gaussian distributions. Similar to what is discussed in \cite{UmarovTsallisSteinberg}, a triplet $(q^{\ast},q,q_{\ast})$ arises for which the mapping $F_{q^{\ast}}: \mathcal{G}_{q} \to \mathcal{G}_{q_{\ast}}$ holds. Moreover, by unifying the two preceding descriptions, further possible extensions are discussed and some conjectures are formulated.
