Abstract: Phase space can be constructed for N equal and distinguishable subsystems that could be (probabilistically) either {it weakly} (or {it "locally"}) correlated (e.g., independent, i.e., uncorrelated), or {it strongly} (or {it globally}) correlated. If they are locally correlated, we expect the Boltzmann-Gibbs entropy SBGequiv−ksumipilnpi to be {it extensive}, i.e., SBG(N)proptoN for Noinfty. In particular, if they are independent, SBG is {it strictly additive}, i.e., SBG(N)=NSBG(1),forallN. However, if the subsystems are globally correlated, we expect, for a vast class of systems, the entropy Sqequivk[1−sumipiq]/(q−1) (with S1=SBG) for some special value of qe1 to be the one which extensive (i.e., Sq(N)proptoN for Noinfty).
