Nonextensive statistical mechanics, anomalous diffusion and central   limit theorems
  We briefly review Boltzmann-Gibbs and nonextensive statistical mechanics as well as their connections with Fokker-Planck equations and with existing central limit theorems. We then provide some hints that might pave the road to the proof of a new central limit theorem, which would play a fundamental role in the foundations and ubiquity of nonextensive statistical mechanics. The basic novelty introduced within this conjectural theorem is the {\it generalization of the hypothesis of independence} of the $N$ random variables being summed. In addition to this, we also advance some nonlinear dynamical (possibly exact) relations which generalize the concepts of Lyapunov exponents, entropy production per unit time, and their interconnection as first proved by Pesin for chaotic systems.
