title: Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac distributions in nonextensive quantum statistics: exact and interpolation approaches.
abstract: Generalized Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac distributions in nonextensive quantum statistics have been discussed by the maximum-entropy method (MEM) with the optimum Lagrange multiplier based on the exact integral representation [A. K. Rajagopal, R. S. Mendes, and E. K. Lenzi, Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 3907 (1998)]. It has been shown that the (q-1) expansion in the exact approach agrees with the result obtained by the asymptotic approach valid for O(q-1). Model calculations have been made with a uniform density of states for electrons and with the Debye model for phonons. Based on the result of the exact approach, we have proposed the interpolation approximation to the generalized distributions, which yields results in agreement with the exact approach within O(q-1) and in high- and low-temperature limits. By using the four methods of the exact, interpolation, factorization, and superstatistical approaches, we have calculated coefficients in the generalized Sommerfeld expansion and electronic and phonon specific heats at low temperatures. A comparison among the four methods has shown that the interpolation approximation is potentially useful in the nonextensive quantum statistics. Supplementary discussions have been made on the (q-1) expansion of the generalized distributions based on the exact approach with the use of the un-normalized MEM, whose results also agree with those of the asymptotic approach.
