Here, we consider a flat FRW universe whose its horizon entropy meets the R\'enyi entropy of non-extensive systems. In our model, the ordinary energy-momentum conservation law is not always valid. By applying the Clausius relation as well…

We propose and construct a two-parameter perturbative expansion around a Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker geometry that can be used to model high-order gravitational effects in the presence of non-linear structure. This framework…

The Cardassian universe is a proposed modification to the Friedmann Robertson Walker (FRW) equation in which the universe is flat, matter dominated, and accelerating. Here we generalize the original Cardassian proposal to include additional…
