摘要
The classical statistics of Boltzmann and Gibbs will be discussed. As pointed out long ago by Einstein, there is a connection of the statistics applicable to a system and its underlying dynamics. This follows, for example, from the existence of quantum (Bose-Einstein or Fermi-Dirac) statistics, where the underlying dynamics is quite different from classical mechanics. In 1988 Tsallis proposed a very successful new statistics. Its connection with an underlying dynamics as well as with the nonextensivity of systems are still matters of active investigation.
