Maximum entropy approach to central limit distributions of correlated variables

Abstract

Hilhorst and Schehr recently presented a straight forward computation of limit distributions of sufficiently correlated random numbers \cite{hilhorst}. Here we present the analytical form of entropy which --under the maximum entropy principle (with ordinary constraints)-- provides these limit distributions. These distributions are not $q$-Gaussians and can not be obtained with Tsallis entropy.
