In this paper we study the viability of an entropic cosmological model. The effects of entropic gravity are derived from a modified entropy-area relationship with a volumetric entropy term. This model describes a late time limit cosmic…
We consider a variant of the brane-world model in which the universe is the direct product of a Friedmann, Robertson-Walker (FRW) space and a compact hyperbolic manifold of dimension $d\geq2$. Cosmology in this space is particularly…
Padmanabhan [arXiv:1206.4916] argues that the cosmic acceleration can be understood from the perspective that spacetime dynamics is an emergence phenomena. By calculating the difference between the surface degrees of freedom and the bulk…
We study the classical and quantum models of a flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) space-time, coupled to a perfect fluid, in the context of the consensus and a gauge-fixed Lagrangian frameworks. It is shown that, either in the usual or…
Recently, a novel idea about our expanding Universe was proposed by T. Padmanabhan [arXiv:1206.4916]. He suggested that the expansion of our Universe can be thought of as the emergence of space as cosmic time progresses. The emergence is…
An entropic-force scenario, i.e., entropic cosmology, assumes that the horizon of the universe has an entropy and a temperature. In the present study, in order to examine entropic cosmology, we derive entropic-force terms not only from the…
Recently, it was argued (Eur. Phys. J. C {\bf73}, 2487 (2013)) that the total entropy of a gravitational system should be related to the volume of system instead of the system surface. Here, we show that this new proposal cannot satisfy the…
Here we study the essence of $f(R,T)$ gravitation theory in five dimensional Universe and see the role of dark energy in the form of wet dark fluid in such a Universe. It is found that the dark energy is not exaggerated in contributing to…
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 establish a new model, which takes into account a dynamic (inertial) self-interaction of gravitating systems. The model is formulated by introduction of a new function depending on the square of the covariant derivative of the velocity…
We present a simple higher dimensional FRW type of model where the acceleration is apparently caused by the presence of the extra dimensions. Assuming an ansatz in the form of the deceleration parameter we get a class of solutions some of…
It has been recently proposed that the interpretation of gravity as an emergent, entropic force might have nontrivial implications to cosmology. Here two approaches are investigated: in one, the Friedman equation receives entropic…
Expansion dynamics of the Universe is one of the important subjects in modern cosmology. The dark energy equation of state determines this dynamics so that the Universe is in an accelerating phase. However, the dark matter can also affect…
In this paper, we attempt to explore the possibility of a obtaining a viable emergent universe scenario supported by a type of fluid known as the extended Chaplygin gas, which extends a modification to the equation of state of the well…
Within the context of a cosmic space whose energy source is modeled with a perfect fluid, a uniform model of Universe based on a standard FRW cosmology containing decoupled mixed matter sources namely stiff matter and cosmic dust together…
We systematically study the evolution of the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) universe coupled with a cosmological constant $\Lambda$ and a perfect fluid that has the equation of state $p=w\rho$, where $p$ and $\rho$ denote, respectively,…
Recent observations indicate that the Universe is not transparent but partially opaque due to absorption of light by ambient cosmic dust. This implies that the Friedmann equations valid for the transparent universe must be modified for the…
We study the late time cosmological evolution of $f(R)$ theories of modified gravity, with the matter content of the universe being that of collisional self interacting matter. We assume that the universe is described by a flat…
This work investigates the dynamical evolution of the universe within the framework of symmetric teleparallel $f(Q,\mathcal{T})$ gravity, where $Q$ is the non-metricity scalar and $\mathcal{T}$ is the trace of the energy-momentum tensor. We…
Recent theoretical progress indicates that spacetime and gravity emerge together from the entanglement structure of an underlying microscopic theory. These ideas are best understood in Anti-de Sitter space, where they rely on the area law…
