Abstract
Minimization problems involving φ-entropy functionals (a generalization of Boltzmann-Shannon entropy) are studied over a given set A and a sequence of sets A n and the properties of their optimal solutions x φ, x n. Under certain conditions on the objective functional and the sets A and A n, it is proven that as n increases to infinity, the optimal solution x n converges in L 1 norm to the test φ-entropy estimate x φ
