AB - The maximum entropy principle (MEP) is one of the most prominent methods to investigate andmodel complex systems. Despite its popularity, the standard form of the MEP can only generateBoltzmann-Gibbs distributions, which are ill-suited for many scenarios of interest. As a principledapproach to extend the reach of the MEP, this paper revisits its foundations in information geometryand shows how the geometry of curved statistical manifolds naturally leads to a generalisation of theMEP based on the Rényi entropy. By establishing a bridge between non-Euclidean geometry andthe MEP, our proposal sets a solid foundation for the numerous applications of the Rényi entropy,and enables a range of novel methods for complex systems analysis.
