Popis: The impact of non-extensive statistics on the hard thermal loop (HTL) resummation technique is investigated, in the absence and presence of a magnetic field. By utilizing the non-extensive bare propagators in real-time formalism of finite temperature field theory, we determine the non-extensive deformations of both HTL gluon self-energies and resummed gluon propagators at the one-loop order. We observe that the introduction of non-extensivity results in distinct shifts in the Debye masses for the retarded and symmetric gluon self-energies. Applying the non-extensive modified resummed gluon propagators to the dielectric permittivity of a quark-gluon plasma, we compute the static heavy quark potential, which incorporates both short-range Yukawa and long-range string-like interactions between heavy quarks and the QGP medium. The real part of the potential exhibits increased screening as the non-extensive parameter $q$ ($q \geq 1$) increases, resulting in a reduction of binding energies for heavy quarkonia. Notably, at a fixed separation distance, the slope of the real part of the potential with respect to $q$ is steeper in the pure thermal case than in the presence of a magnetic field. Furthermore, including non-extensivity enhances the magnitude of the imaginary part of the potential, suggesting a broadening of the decay widths for heavy quarkonia. Based on these observations, we estimate the melting temperatures of heavy quarkonia. Our results indicate that non-extensivity significantly reduces the melting temperatures of heavy quarkonia, leading to their earlier dissociation, whereas the magnetic field tends to mitigate this dissociation process.
