Thermodynamics and stability analysis of Tsallis Holographic Dark Energy (THDE) models in [formula omitted] gravity

In this manuscript, we develop the counterpart of Tsallis holographic dark energy (THDE) model in F(R,T) theory (where R represents Ricci scalar and T is trace of energy momentum tensor (EMT)) using the two IR-cutoffs namely Hubble horizon (HH) and Granda-Oliveros (GO). The THDE is proposed on the basis of Tsallis entropy (Tsallis and Cirto, 2013) and the holographic hypothesis (Tavayef, 2018). Cosmic evolution is analyzed using the equation of state (EOS) parameter which results in both quintessence and phantom regimes. The stability analysis of reconstructed models is also made with the help of squared speed of sound. Moreover, we study the thermodynamic picture and developed constraints for the validity of generalized second law of thermodynamics (GSLT). It is remarked that these reconstructed models can be useful to further explore the cosmic issues.

Kaniadakis holographic dark energy in Brans–Dicke cosmology

By using the holographic hypothesis and Kaniadakis generalized entropy, which is based on relativistic statistical theory and modified Boltzmann–Gibbs entropy, we build Kaniadakis holographic dark energy (DE) model in the Brans–Dicke framework. We derive cosmological parameters of the Kaniadakis holographic DE model, with IR cutoff as the Hubble horizon, in order to investigate its cosmological consequences. Our study shows that even in the absence of an interaction between the dark sectors of the cosmos, the Kaniadakis holographic dark energy model with the Hubble radius as IR cutoff can explain the present accelerated phase of the universe expansion in the Brans–Dicke theory. The stability of the model, using the squared of sound speed, has been checked and it is found that the model is unstable in non-interacting case and can be stable for some range of model parameters within the interacting case.

Rényi holographic dark energy in the Brans–Dicke cosmology

In this paper, we construct a holographic dark energy (HDE) model considering the IR cut-off as Hubble horizon, holographic hypothesis, and using the generalized Rényi entropy, and investigate its cosmological outcomes in Brans–Dicke gravity without interaction. We observe the suitable behavior for the cosmological parameters, involving the deceleration parameter, the equation of state (EoS) parameter, and the density parameter in both flat and non-flat Universes. It is also concluded by the stability analysis that the Rényi holographic dark energy (RHDE) model is classically stable at present and future for the Rényi parameter [Formula: see text] in both flat and non-flat Universe.

Thermodynamics and reentrant phase transition for logarithmic nonlinear charged black holes in massive gravity

We investigate a new class of [Formula: see text]-dimensional topological black hole solutions in the context of massive gravity and in the presence of logarithmic nonlinear electrodynamics. Exploring higher-dimensional solutions in massive gravity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics is motivated by holographic hypothesis as well as string theory. We first construct exact solutions of the field equations and then explore the behavior of the metric functions for different values of the model parameters. We observe that our black holes admit the multi-horizons caused by a quantum effect called anti-evaporation. Next, by calculating the conserved and thermodynamic quantities, we obtain a generalized Smarr formula. We find that the first law of black holes thermodynamics is satisfied on the black hole horizon. We study thermal stability of the obtained solutions in both canonical and grand canonical ensembles. We reveal that depending on the model parameters, our solutions exhibit a rich variety of phase structures. Finally, we explore, for the first time without extending thermodynamics phase space, the critical behavior and reentrant phase transition for black hole solutions in massive gravity theory. We realize that there is a zeroth-order phase transition for a specified range of charge value and the system experiences a large/small/large reentrant phase transition due to the presence of nonlinear electrodynamics.

Tsallis agegraphic dark energy model

Using the non-extensive Tsallis entropy and the holographic hypothesis, we propose a new dark energy (DE) model with timescale as infrared (IR) cutoff. Considering the age of the Universe as well as the conformal time as IR cutoffs, we investigate the cosmological consequences of the proposed DE models and study the evolution of the Universe filled by a pressureless matter and the obtained DE candidates. We find that although this model can describe the late time acceleration and the density, deceleration and the equation of state parameters show satisfactory behavior by themselves, these models are classically unstable unless the interaction between the two dark sectors of the Universe is taken into account. In addition, the results of the existence of a mutual interaction between the cosmos sectors are also addressed. We find out that the interacting models are stable at the classical level which is in contrast to the original interacting agegraphic dark energy models which are classically unstable [K. Y. Kim, H. W. Lee and Y. S. Myung, Phys. Lett. B 660, 118 (2008)].

Tsallis holographic dark energy in the Brans\u2013Dicke cosmology

Using the Tsallis generalized entropy, holographic hypothesis and also considering the Hubble horizon as the IR cutoff, we build a holographic model for dark energy and study its cosmological consequences in the Brans–Dicke framework. At first, we focus on a non-interacting universe, and thereinafter, we study the results of considering a sign-changeable interaction between the dark sectors of the cosmos. Our investigations show that, compared with the flat case, the power and freedom of the model in describing the cosmic evolution is significantly increased in the presence of the curvature. The stability analysis also indicates that, independent of the universe curvature, both the interacting and non-interacting cases are classically unstable. In fact, both the classical stability criterion and an acceptable behavior for the cosmos quantities, including the deceleration and density parameters as well as the equation of state, are not simultaneously obtainable.

Tsallis holographic dark energy

Employing the modified entropy–area relation suggested by Tsallis and Cirto [1], and the holographic hypothesis, a new holographic dark energy (HDE) model is proposed. Considering a flat Friedmann–Robertson–Walker (FRW) universe in which there is no interaction between the cosmos sectors, the cosmic implications of the proposed HDE are investigated. Interestingly enough, we find that the identification of IR-cutoff with the Hubble radius, can lead to the late time accelerated Universe even in the absence of interaction between two dark sectors of the Universe. This is in contrast to the standard HDE model with Hubble cutoff, which does not imply the accelerated expansion, unless the interaction is taken into account.

PLANCK FLUCTUATIONS, MEASUREMENT UNCERTAINTIES AND THE HOLOGRAPHIC PRINCIPLE

Starting from a critical analysis of recently reported surprisingly large uncertainties in length and position measurements deduced within the framework of quantum gravity, we embark on an investigation both of the correlation structure of Planck scale fluctuations and the role the holographic hypothesis is possibly playing in this context. While we prove the logical independence of the fluctuation results and the holographic hypothesis (in contrast to some recent statements in that direction) we show that by combining these two topics one can draw quite strong and interesting conclusions about the details of the fluctuation structure and the microscopic dynamics on the Planck scale. We further argue that these findings point to a possibly new and generalized form of quantum statistical mechanics of strongly (anti)correlated systems of degrees of freedom in this fundamental regime.

NON-BOLTZMANN STATISTICS AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO HOLOGRAPHY

An intriguing question related to black hole thermodynamics is that the entropy of a region shall scale as the area rather than the volume. In this essay we propose that the microscopical degrees of freedom contained in a given region of space, are statistically related in such a way that obey a nonstandard statistics, in which case an holographic hypothesis would not be needed. This could provide us with some insight about the nature of degrees of freedom of the geometry and/or the way in which gravitation plays a role in the statistic correlation between the degrees of freedom of a system.

Anti-de Sitter black holes, perfect fluids and holography

We consider asymptotically anti-de Sitter black holes in d-spacetime dimensions in the thermodynamically stable regime. We show that the Bekenstein–Hawking entropy and its leading order corrections due to thermal fluctuations are reproduced by a weakly interacting fluid of bosons and fermions (‘dual gas’) in Δ = α(d − 2) + 1 spacetime dimensions, where the energy–momentum dispersion relation for the constituents of the fluid is assumed to be ϵ = κpα. We examine implications of this result for entropy bounds and the holographic hypothesis.

Illusions of vision: Interpretation within the framework of a holographic model

Several illusions of vision are considered on the basis of a neurophysiological holographic model of visual perception at the level of the eye’s and the retina. It is suggested that the eye’s optical system forms a spatial spectrum of the observed object rather than its image on the retina. The spectrum is encoded by active anisotropic quasi-crystalline structures of rod rhodopsins and cone iodopsins, and a complex Fourier hologram of the observed object consisting of two quadrature components is recorded. The holographic hypothesis is confirmed by the results obtained by digital simulation.

Topological holography

We study a topological field theory in four dimensions on a manifold with boundary. A bulk-boundary interaction is introduced through a novel variational principle rather than explicitly. Through this scheme we find that the boundary values of the bulk fields act as external sources for the boundary theory. Furthermore, the full quantum states of the theory factorize into a single bulk state and an infinite number of boundary states labeled by loops on the spatial boundary. In this sense the theory is purely holographic. We show that this theory is dual to Chern-Simons theory with an external source. We also point out that the holographic hypothesis must be supplemented by additional assumptions in order to take into account bulk topological degrees freedom, since these are apriori invisible to local boundary fields.

Quantum geometry with intrinsic local causality

The space of states and operators for a large class of background independent theories of quantum spacetime dynamics is defined. The SU(2) spin networks of quantum general relativity are replaced by labelled compact two-dimensional surfaces. The space of states of the theory is the direct sum of the spaces of invariant tensors of a quantum group G_q over all compact (finite genus) oriented 2-surfaces. The dynamics is background independent and locally causal. The dynamics constructs histories with discrete features of spacetime geometry such as causal structure and multifingered time. For SU(2) the theory satisfies the Bekenstein bound and the holographic hypothesis is recast in this formalism.

Focusing and the holographic hypothesis.

The ``screen mapping" introduced by Susskind to implement 't Hooft's holographic hypothesis is studied. For a single screen time, there are an infinite number of images of a black hole event horizon, almost all of which have smaller area on the screen than the horizon area. This is consistent with the focusing equation because of the existence of focal points. However, the {\it boundary} of the past (or future) of the screen obeys the area theorem, and so always gives an expanding map to the screen, as required by the holographic hypothesis. These considerations are illustrated with several axisymmetric static black hole spacetimes.

Linking topological quantum field theory and nonperturbative quantum gravity

Quantum gravity is studied nonperturbatively in the case in which space has a boundary with finite area. A natural set of boundary conditions is studied in the Euclidean signature theory in which the pullback of the curvature to the boundary is self-dual (with a cosmological constant). A Hilbert space which describes all the information accessible by measuring the metric and connection induced in the boundary is constructed and is found to be the direct sum of the state spaces of all SU(2) Chern–Simon theories defined by all choices of punctures and representations on the spatial boundary 𝒮. The integer level k of Chern–Simons theory is found to be given by k=6π/G2Λ+α, where Λ is the cosmological constant and α is a CP breaking phase. Using these results, expectation values of observables which are functions of fields on the boundary may be evaluated in closed form. Given these results, it is natural to make the conjecture that the quantum states of the system are completely determined by measurements made on the boundary. One consequence of this is the Bekenstein bound, which says that once the two metric of the boundary has been measured, the subspace of the physical state space that describes the further information that may be obtained about the interior has finite dimension equal to the exponent of the area of the boundary, in Planck units, times a fixed constant. Finally, these results confirm both the categorical-theoretic ‘‘ladder of dimensions’’ picture of Crane and the holographic hypothesis of Susskind and ’t Hooft.
