In a recent paper by Ambr\'osio et al. [arXiv:2405.14799], it was shown that the gravitational force law of the Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) phenomenology can be derived within the framework of entropic gravity and the holographic…
We apply a recent proposal to define "gravitational entropy" to the expansion of cosmic voids within the framework of non-perturbative General Relativity. By considering CDM void configurations compatible with basic observational…
In standard general relativity the universe cannot be started with arbitrary initial conditions, because four of the ten components of the Einstein's field equations (EFE) are constraints on initial conditions. In the previous work it was…
We consider generic Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) dust models to probe the gravitational entropy proposals of Clifton, Ellis and Tavakol (CET) and of Hosoya and Buchert (HB). We also consider a variant of the HB proposal based on a suitable…
Wald's entropy formula allows one to find the entropy of black holes' event horizon within any diffeomorphism invariant theory of gravity. When applied to general relativity, the formula yields the Bekenstein-Hawking result but, for any…
In this paper, we investigate the entropy of the free gravitational field for a given epoch for some well-known isotropic and anisotropic cosmologies. We use the definition of gravitational entropy proposed by Clifton, Ellis, and Tavakol,…
We develop techniques for calculating the ground state wave functional and the geometric entropy for some simple field theories. Special attention is devoted to fermions, which present special technical difficulties in this regard. Explicit…
We propose a formal extension of thermodynamics and kinetic theories to a larger class of entropy functionals. Kinetic equations associated to Boltzmann, Fermi, Bose and Tsallis entropies are recovered as a special case. This formalism…

We consider classical Euclidean gravity solutions with a boundary. The boundary contains a non-contractible circle. These solutions can be interpreted as computing the trace of a density matrix in the full quantum gravity theory, in the…
When the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy is modified, ambiguity often arises concerning whether the Hawking temperature or the thermodynamic mass should be modified. The common practice, however, is to keep the black hole solution the same as…
