Many complex systems are characterized by non-Boltzmann distribution functions of their statistical variables. If one wants to -- justified or not -- hold on to the maximum entropy principle for complex statistical systems (non-Boltzmann)…

Einstein-Hilbert (EH) action can be separated into a bulk and a surface term, with a specific ("holographic") relationship between the two, so that either can be used to extract information about the other. The surface term can also be…

In this paper we investigate the entropy of gravitational Chern-Simons terms for the horizon with non-vanishing extrinsic curvatures, or the holographic entanglement entropy for arbitrary entangling surface. In 3D we find no anomaly of…

We extend Padmanabhan's entropy functional formalism to show that, in addition to the Gauss-Bonnet or the entire series of Lanczos-Lovelock Lagrangians already obtained, more general higher-order corrections to General Relativity, i.e., the…

We consider the concept of generalized measure-theoretic entropy, where instead of the Shannon entropy function we consider an arbitrary concave function defined on the unit interval, vanishing in the origin. Under mild assumptions on this…

A generalization of the Gibbs entropy postulate is proposed based on the BBGKY hierarchy as the nonequilibrium entropy for a system of N interacting particles. This entropy satisfies the basic principles of thermodynamics in the sense that…

Recently it was observed that the first law of Entanglement leads to the linearized Einstein equation. In this paper, we point out that the gravity dual of an relative entropy expression is equivalent to the full non-linear Einstein…

The theory of gravity has undergone somewhat of a revolution lately. Gravity is no longer a fundamental force it seems, but rather an effect of holographic entropy. Building on the works by Jacobsson, Padmanabhan and Verlinde we review the…
