Quantum statistical treatment of Verlinde's conjecture in a Tsallis framework

Verlinde has recently conjectured, via a Beckenstein-like thought experiment, that gravitation, instead of being an elementary force, is an emergent entropic one. This rather surprising conjecture was actually proved in [Physica A {\bf 505} (2018) 190], in a strictly classical statistical mechanics' environment. In this Communication, we work in a quantum statistical context to consider the conjecture in the case of bosons/fermions, in a Tsallis' framework. We prove that Tsallis' entropy is the operating potential energy in this quantum treatment, something that does not happen in the case of Boltzmann-Gibbs' entropy. \color{red} In the classical limit, we show that the emergent force has a Newtonian dependence with the distance.
