We study two types of entropic-force models in a homogeneous, isotropic, spatially flat, matter-dominated universe. The first type is a `$\Lambda(t)$ type' similar to $\Lambda(t)$CDM (varying-lambda cold dark matter) models in which both…

Entropic force originates in the assumption that there is a horizon for the universe. This horizon gives rise to additional terms in the equations of motion. Using dynamical system calculations, our results show that in the presence of dark…
