We investigate the cosmological and thermodynamic aspects of Weyl tensor corrected [Formula: see text] gravity. For this purpose, we assume some well-known cosmological bouncing scenarios such as symmetric bounce cosmology, oscillatory cosmology, matter bounce cosmology, little rip cosmology, superbounce cosmology and develop some cosmological parameters. For instance, the equation of state parameter [Formula: see text] describes the quintessence phase for symmetric bounce cosmology, vacuum phase for oscillatory, little rip and matter bounce cosmology while it gives both quintessence and vacuum phases for matter bounce cosmology. It is also observed that the squared speed of sound [Formula: see text] gives positive behavior for all models resulting in that the models assumed are stable. We evaluate generalized second law of thermodynamics which remains valid for all cosmological models except symmetric bounce cosmology. Moreover, we also investigate the thermal equilibrium condition [Formula: see text] and found its validity for all models except symmetric bounce cosmological model.

We examine thermodynamically an extra driving term for the flat universe by applying Sharma Mittal entropy to Padmanabhan’s holographic equipartition law. Deviations from the Bekenstein–Hawking entropy by using this law, we generate an extra driving in the acceleration equation. By using the constant and parametrized equation of state parameter, we investigate the different cosmological parameters like deceleration parameter, squared speed of sound, Om-diagnostic and statefinder parameter through graphical approach. We observe compatible results with current observational data in both models. Generalized second law of thermodynamics also remains valid in both cases.

In the context of cubic gravity for flat FRW metric we discuss the behavior of cosmological parameters (equation of state (EoS) parameter and square speed of sound) at Hubble horizon with the four different models of Hubble parameter. We observe the validity of generalized second law of thermodynamics (GSLT) and thermal equilibrium condition. It is found that cosmological parameters lie within the observational constraints. Also, GSLT and thermal equilibrium condition holds in almost all cases of Hubble parameter.

In the framework of [Formula: see text] gravity, we examine the nature of cosmological parameters by choosing different models of [Formula: see text] gravity at past, present as well as future epoch for Hubble parameter from parameterized deceleration parameters. It is found that equation of state parameter leads to quintessence behavior and its ranges lie within Planck data for different constraints. We also study the squared sound speed and the thermodynamics for specific choice of constants. The squared sound speed corresponds to the viable results. Similarly, the validity of GSLT is also investigated for both linear and nonlinear models of [Formula: see text] theory. However, the thermal equilibrium condition holds for both [Formula: see text] models for specific choice of constants.

The cosmological scenario is built up within the framework of scalar field model possessing a noncanonical kinetic term in loop quantum gravity. The noncanonical scalar field is permitted to interact with dark matter field by assuming a specific form of coupling term. The equation of state parameter is set to be constant as well as variable (Chevallier–Polarski–Linder parametrization) and evaluated the behavior of universe through deceleration parameter and weak energy condition. These parameters favor the accelerated expansion of the universe for three values of equation of state parameter in both cases allowed by observational data. The squared speed of sound leads to the stability of the underlying models in both forms of equation of state parameter. Moreover, the validity of generalized second law of thermodynamics is analyzed by using first law of thermodynamics and assume the universe to be enclosed by apparent horizon. The Bekenstein, logarithmic and power-law entropy is being considered as entropy of horizon. The thermodynamic equilibrium condition is also discussed for all three cases of entropies. The generalized second law of thermodynamics and thermal equilibrium condition is satisfied for all the three types of entropies.

We consider the particle creation scenario in the dynamical Chern-Simons modified gravity in the presence of perfect fluid equation of state p=(γ-1)ρ. By assuming various modified entropies (Bekenstein entropy logarithmic entropy, power law correction, and Renyi entropy), we investigate the first law of thermodynamics and generalized second law of thermodynamics on the apparent horizon. In the presence of particle creation rate, we discuss the generalized second law of thermodynamics and thermal equilibrium condition. It is found that thermodynamics laws and equilibrium condition remain valid under certain conditions of parameters.

Adopting the thin layer improved brick wall method, we investigate the thermodynamics of a black hole embedded in a spatially flat Friedmann–Robertson–Walker universe. We calculate the temperature and the entropy at every apparent horizon for arbitrary solution of the scale factor. We show that the temperature and entropy display a nontrivial behavior as functions of time. In the case of black holes immersed in a universe driven by phantom energy, we show that for specific ranges of the equation-of-state parameter and apparent horizons the entropy is compatible with the D-bound conjecture, and even the null, dominant and strong energy conditions are violated. In the case of accretion of phantom energy onto a black hole with small Hawking–Hayward quasi-local mass, we obtain an equation-of-state parameter in the range w ≤ -5/3, guaranteeing the validity of the generalized second law.

In this paper, we discuss the validity of the generalized second law of thermodynamics in the presence of a multi-component scalar field ( ϕ ) in a spatially flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) universe. We describe the first-order formalism by defining the Hubble parameter as H = - W ( ϕ i ) . By using three super-potential models of the Hubble parameter, we analyze the validity of the generalized law and thermal equilibrium conditions in the presence of the logarithmically-corrected, Bekenstein-Hawking, Sharma-Mittal and R e ´ n y i entropies. It is noticed that the generalized law and thermal equilibrium conditions hold for some cases.

In this work, an attempt is made to study the thermodynamical analysis at the apparent horizon in the framework of fractal universe. We consider the Bekenstein entropy to examine validity of the generalized second law of thermodynamics (GSLT) and thermal equilibrium for the four different cases which are developed with the utilization of different forms of squared speed of sound. In each case, we explore the behavior of total entropy through the graphical variation of its first- and second-order derivatives with respect to redshift parameter ([Formula: see text]). It is found that generalized second law of thermodynamics holds for Cases 1 and 2 for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], respectively and it holds in late times as well. However, for Cases [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], this law is satisfied in early, present and future epochs. Furthermore, for Cases 1 and 2, instability of thermodynamic equilibrium is observed, but for Cases 3 and 4, it holds in the specific intervals [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], respectively.

We consider the newly proposed gravitational modifications that go beyond Horndeski’s theory, named as theories with extended nonminimal derivative couplings. By these modifications, the coefficient functions depend on the scalar field and its kinetic energy. These theories become ghost-free in cosmological background. We consider the flat FRW universe and explore the equation-of-state parameter, [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] plane and the squared speed of sound. The equation-of-state parameter exhibits phantom behavior of the universe, [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] plane represents the freezing region of the universe while the squared speed of sound denotes the stability of the model for the specific choice of constant parameters. Also, we investigate the validity of generalized second law of thermodynamics on the Hubble horizon taking into account the Bekenstein, power-law, Renyi and logarithmic corrections to the horizon entropy.

This chapter recounts how Boltzmann reacted to Hermann Helmholtz’s analogy between thermodynamic systems and a special kind of mechanical system (the “monocyclic systems”) by grouping all attempts to relate thermodynamics to mechanics, including the kinetic-molecular analogy, into a family of partial analogies all derivable from what we would now call a microcanonical ensemble. At that time, Boltzmann regarded ensemble-based statistical mechanics as the royal road to the laws of thermal equilibrium (as we now do). In the same period, he returned to the Boltzmann equation and the H theorem in reply to Peter Guthrie Tait’s attack on the equipartition theorem. He also made a non-technical survey of the second law of thermodynamics seen as a law of probability increase.
