Plastino, A.; Tsallis, C. Variational method in generalized statistical mechanics. (English) Zbl 0808.60092 J. Phys. A, Math. Gen. 26, No. 18, L893-L896 (1993). Summary: Concavity properties of a recently generalized (not necessarily extensive) entropy enable, among others, the generalization of the Bogolyubov inequality, hence of the variational method in equilibrium statistical mechanics.
