Abstract: We shall show that a two-parameter extended entropy function is characterized by a functional equation. As a corollary of this result, we obtain that the Tsallis entropy function is characterized by a functional equation, which is a different form used in cite{ST} i.e., in Proposition ef{prop01} in the present paper. We also give an interpretation of the functional equation giving the Tsallis entropy function, in the relation with two non-additive properties.

Review text

Summary: We show that a two-parameter extended entropy function is characterized by a functional equation. As a corollary of this result, we obtain that the Tsallis entropy function is characterized by a functional equation which is different from than the one used by \textit{H. Suyari} and \textit{M. Tsukada} [``Tsallis differential entropy and divergences derived from the generalized Shannon-Khinchin axioms, in: Proceedings of the IEEE international symposium on information theory, ISIT '09. Los Alamitos: IEEE. 149--153 (2009)]. We give an interpretation of the functional equation in our main theorem.
