Does information entropy play a role in the expansion and acceleration of the Universe?
read the original abstract
We propose an interpretation of the expansion and acceleration of the Universe from an information theoretic viewpoint. We obtain the time evolution of the configuration entropy of the mass distribution in a static Universe and show that the process of gravitational instability leads to a rapid dissipation of configuration entropy during the growth of the density fluctuations making such a Universe entropically unfavourable. We find that in an expanding Universe, the configuration entropy rate is governed by the expansion rate of the Universe and the growth rate of density fluctuations. The configuration entropy rate becomes smaller but still remains negative in a matter dominated Universe and eventually becomes zero at some future time in a $\Lambda$ dominated Universe. The configuration entropy may have a connection to the dark energy and possibly plays a driving role in the current accelerating expansion of the Universe leading the Universe to its maximum entropy configuration.

Observational and Thermodynamic aspects of one-dimensional Dark Energy EoS parametrization models
Gong–Zhang Type I/II dark-energy parametrizations remain competitive with ΛCDM under late-time probes, with GZ2 preferred and configuration entropy sensitive to late-time clustering.
