Tsallis' q-analysis, new scales of interpolating spaces and q-rational functions

TL;DR
This work develops a Tsallis $q$-calculus framework for quantum-type reproducing-kernel spaces, introducing the $q$-Fock–Tsallis space with kernel $K_q(z,w)=e_q^{z\overline w}$ and analyzing when the associated inner product is Hilbert or Krein. It derives explicit operator identities for $M_z$, $R_0$, and $\mathbb I$ and shows how the canonical commutation relations deform with $q$, including a $q$-dependent formation of $q$-Stirling-like numbers. The paper also constructs Jordan chains in $\mathcal H(K_q)$ via generalized eigenvalue problems for $M_z^*$ and develops a Tsallis analogue of rational matrix-valued functions through the $q$-Tsallis Borel transform, establishing multiple equivalent realizations and connections to Gelfond–Leontiev-type differentiation. Collectively, these results provide a unified operator-theoretic framework that interpolates between Hardy- and Fock-like spaces in nonextensive statistics and offers tools for studying rational functions in Tsallis settings, with potential applications in quantum stochastic analysis and nonclassical signal processing.
Abstract
We are studying the fundamental tools for a quantum calculus based on the Tsallis $q$-exponential In particular we are looking at $q$-Fock spaces, structural identities, as well as rational functions in this context.
