Abstract
Under the frame of a statistical model, the concept of nonsymmetric entropy which generalizes the concepts of Boltzmann’s entropy and Shannon’s entropy, is defined. Maximum nonsymmetric entropy principle is proved. Some important distribution laws such as power law, can be derived from this principle naturally. Especially, nonsymmetric entropy is more convenient than other entropy such as Tsallis’s entropy in deriving power laws.
