Claims
By identifying the generalized chemical potential as the natural dynamical ansatz, we construct a general thermodynamic framework where the drift term remains linear in the probability density, preserving the standard form of the Einstein relation. Within this framework, we show that the q-deformed geometry... exhibits a fundamental duality between the dynamic index q and the thermodynamic index 2-q.
The Linearization Principle itself, introduced directly at the dynamical stage as the central geometric rule that forces the drift to stay linear while allowing nonlinear diffusion.
A geometric Linearization Principle derives nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations that preserve linear drift and Einstein relation while producing q-Gaussian equilibria minimizing a 2-q entropy functional.
