Geometry of the Central Limit Theorem in the Nonextensive Case

arXiv:0901.4621 · doi:10.1016/j.physleta.2009.03.029

Abstract

We uncover geometric aspects that underlie the sum of two independent stochastic variables when both are governed by q-Gaussian probability distributions. The pertinent discussion is given in terms of random vectors uniformly distributed on a p-sphere.
