Nonlinear Fokker-Planck Equations, H-Theorem and Generalized Entropy of a Composed System

We investigate the dynamics of a system composed of two different subsystems when subjected to different nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations by considering the H-theorem. We use the H-theorem to obtain the conditions required to establish a suitable dependence for the system's interaction that agrees with the thermodynamics law when the nonlinearity in these equations is the same. In this framework, we also consider different dynamical aspects of each subsystem and investigate a possible expression for the entropy of the composite system
