We study the effective dynamics of the Schwarzschild black hole interior by introducing entropic deformations derived from generalized superstatistical entropies $S_{+}$ and $S_{-}$. The resulting modified Hamiltonians $\bar{H}_{\pm}$,…
Renewed interest in deriving gravity (more precisely, the Einstein equations) from thermodynamics considerations [1, 2] is stirred up by a recent proposal that 'gravity is an entropic force' [3] (see also [4]). Even though I find the…

Quantum Field Theory is plagued by divergences in the attempt to calculate physical quantities. Standard techniques of regularization and renormalization are used to keep under control such a problem. In this paper we would like to use a…

The equations of motion describing all physical systems, except gravity, remain invariant if a constant is added to the Lagrangian. In the conventional approach, gravitational theories break this symmetry exhibited by all other physical…
We study the Post-Newtonian approach implemented to the Einstein-Hilbert action adding the cosmological constant $\Lambda$ at 1PN order. We consider very small values of $\Lambda$ to derive the Lagrangian of a two body compact system at the…

A remarkable new idea on the origin of gravity was recently proposed by Verlinde who claimed that the laws of gravitation are no longer fundamental, but rather emerge naturally as an entropic force. In Verlinde derivation, the equipartition…
