Using the first law of thermodynamics, we propose a relation between the system entropy (S) and its IR (L) and UV (Λ) cutoffs. In addition, applying this relation to the apparent horizon of flat FRW universe, whose entropy meets the Rényi entropy, a new holographic dark energy model is addressed. Thereinafter, the evolution of the flat FRW universe, filled by a pressureless source and the obtained dark energy candidate, is studied. In our model, there is no mutual interaction between the cosmos sectors. We find out that the obtained model is theoretically powerful to explain the current accelerated phase of the universe. This result emphasizes that the generalized entropy formalism is suitable for describing systems including the long-range interactions such as gravity.
Using the Tsallis generalized entropy, holographic hypothesis and also considering the Hubble horizon as the IR cutoff, we build a holographic model for dark energy and study its cosmological consequences in the Brans-Dicke framework. At first, we focus on a non-interacting universe, and thereinafter, we study the results of considering a sign-changeable interaction between the dark sectors of the cosmos. Our investigations show that, compared with the flat case, the power and freedom of the model in describing the cosmic evolution is significantly increased in the presence of the curvature. The stability analysis also indicates that, independent of the universe curvature, both the interacting and non-interacting cases are classically unstable. In fact, both the classical stability criterion and an acceptable behavior for the cosmos quantities, including the deceleration and density parameters as well as the equation of state, are not simultaneously obtainable.
A promising theory in modifying general relativity (GR) by violating the ordinary energy–momentum conservation law in curved spacetime is the Rastall theory of gravity. In this theory, geometry and matter fields are coupled to each other in a nonminimal way. Here, we study thermodynamic properties of some black hole (BH) solutions in this framework, and compare our results with those of GR. We demonstrate how the presence of these matter sources amplifies the effects caused by the Rastall parameter in thermodynamic quantities. Our investigation also shows that BHs with radius smaller than a certain amount ([Formula: see text]) have negative heat capacity in the Rastall framework. In fact, it is a lower bound for the possible values of horizon radius satisfied by the stable BHs.
We study some cosmological features of Tsallis holographic dark energy (THDE) in Cyclic, DGP and RS II braneworlds. In our setup, a flat FRW universe is considered filled by a pressureless source and THDE with the Hubble radius as the IR cutoff, while there is no interaction between them. Our result shows that although suitable behavior can be obtained for the system parameters such as the deceleration parameter, the models are not always stable during the cosmic evolution at the classical level.
