4 Sequence of Generalized Binomial distribution nonnegative strictly increasing real numbers, χ { } = x p ( )! = η ( η) Properties: ( p ) preserves the symmetry win-loss: invariant under ( -, η -η ) ( ) p represent probabilities of wins in a sequence of correlated trials: ( ) a) p =, η [0,] ( ) = 0 generating functions of p ( ) b) p 0,, η [0,] ηα ( η) α qn n α ( ) F( η ;) t t ; F( η ;) t F( η ;) t = ( t/ α), α > 0 p = n= 0 xn! α Fulfills the Leibniz triangle rule S BG extensive (q entropy =) Ordinary binomial limit ( α ) α / Expectation value = η ; Variance ( σ ) ( ηα, ) = η( η) + α Spetial case: q-exponential generating function Properties: ( )!! p ( η x ) = ( η ) ( η ) ( )! q q x! x! where: 2 0 ( )! x! xx x, x! = η q polynomial of degree [ H. Bergeron, E. M. F. Curado, and J. P. Gazeau, J. Math. Phys. 54, (203) 2330]

5 A) Finite sequence of nonnegative strictly increasing real numbers umber of win outcomes: Ratio of wins per trial + = 0, =,..., = 0 / { } 0 χ = x = Probability of ratio of wins per trial / : p ( ) ( / ) = ( ηα, ) p α ( ) ( / ) = p p Binomial distribution limit ormalized distribution of umerical results strongly suggest that, α, : p η = α = η = α ( ) ( / ; / 2, ) p ( / 2, ) umerical values of q : : β p p ( / ) = pmaxe q max β x where e q [ β ( qx ) ] 2 ( q) ormalized distribution evolves as q-gaussians, The value of q increases with, α. 2 q ( α) lim q( α, ) = α 2 q α = 2

7 P( ; < x ηα, ) distributions ( < ) q-exponential decay: P( ; < x ηα, ) e r q q=q(α,) dependence: Slopes dependence? r= rx (,, ηα, )... q( ηα,, ) = + (2 < α < < q( α ) 2) η ηα = < /2 2 2 α = = 2 + = η = /2 q( α) q ( α) q( α) q ( α) η= /2 η= /2

9 Conclusions ( We analyzed a set of generalized binomial distributions, p ) ( ηα ; ), that can be interpreted as the probability of having wins (probability η) and - losses (probability -η) in a sequence of correlated trials. They preserve the symmetry win-loss, and fulfill the Leibniz triangle rule ( q entropy =). umerical results strongly suggest that increasing and for fixed values of α= α 0, the probability distribution function of the ratio of wins per trial evolves as a q-gaussian, and q(α 0, ) increases with. umerical results strongly suggest that the ractors ( ) of the probability distribution function of the ratio of wins per trial are q-gaussians (q<). The value of q ( α) lim q( α, ) is analytically obtained 2 as a function of α as q ( α) =, recovering the binomial distribution limit when α α 2 The generalized binomial distributions represent a superdiffusion process. The generalized binomial distributions do not satisfy the Wea Law of large numbers. Large-deviation-lie properties are satisfied by P( ; < x ηα, ) distributions ( < ). In particular: Probability deviation q-exponentially decays. The value of q is obtained as a function of the parameters of the model (η, α): q( ηα, ) = + ηα on-trivial dependence of the rate of q-exponential decay, r= rx (,, ηα, ), is analyzed. The q-gaussian ractor q ( α), and the q-exponential parameter of η=/2 models q( ηα, )( α ), satisfy 2 ( ) + = ( ) =2+ q α = q α η = /2 2 q( α) q( α) q ( α) q ( α) 2 η= /2 η= /2 Large-deviation-lie properties of P( ; < x ηα, ) distributions ( > ) are being studied, and so is the behavior of deviation probabilities form the expectation value ( > and <).
