abstract

The present work reveals a direct correspondence between modified theories of gravity (cosmology) and entropic cosmology based on the thermodynamics of apparent horizon. It turns out that due to the total differentiable property of entropy, the usual thermodynamic law (used for Einstein gravity) needs to be generalized for modified gravity theories having more than one thermodynamic degrees of freedom (d.o.f.). For the modified theories having $n$ number of thermodynamic d.o.f., the corresponding horizon entropy is given by: $S_\mathrm{h} \sim S_\mathrm{BH} +$ terms containing the time derivatives of $S_\mathrm{BH}$ up to $(n-1)$-th order, and moreover, the coefficient(s) of the derivative term(s) are proportional to the modification parameter of the gravity theory (compared to the Einstein gravity; $S_\mathrm{BH}$ is the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy). By identifying the independent thermodynamic variables from the first law of thermodynamics, we show that the equivalent thermodynamic description of modified gravity naturally allows the time derivative of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy in the horizon entropy.

  1. Viscosity in Isotropic Cosmological Backgrounds in General Relativity and Starobinsky Gravity

    gr-qc 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Shear viscosity does not affect the background expansion or the electromagnetic luminosity distance in isotropic cosmologies with a comoving fluid, also in Starobinsky gravity.

  2. Apparent horizon thermodynamics in an exponential $f(Q)$ gravity model

    gr-qc 2026-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In an exponential f(Q) model, apparent-horizon entropy gains exponentially suppressed corrections to the area law, and the generalized second law excludes parameter values b>0.26 in the future-redshift region.

  3. Hints Beyond $\Lambda$CDM from Barrow and Tsallis Holographic Dark Energy with GO cutoff

    gr-qc 2026-01 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Barrow holographic dark energy with the Granda-Oliveros cutoff fits current background data as well as ΛCDM and shows a weak AIC preference only for the Union3-based dataset combination.

  4. Effective matter sectors from modified entropies

    gr-qc 2025-11 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Choosing a modified entropy S(r) fixes a metric f(r)=1-4πM/S'(r), and the Einstein tensor of that metric acts as an anisotropic effective fluid.

  5. Observational constraints on the modified cosmology inspired by string T-duality

    gr-qc 2025-10 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Late-time data bound the T-duality zero-point-length coupling to β ≲ 10^-3, leaving ΛCDM statistically equivalent.

  6. Dark energy era with a resolution of Hubble tension in generalized entropic cosmology

    gr-qc 2025-07 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    A generalized-entropy dark energy model with one fitted extra parameter returns H0 near 73 km/s/Mpc on some datasets, but the reported model-comparison statistics do not favor it over LambdaCDM.
