We investigate the validity of generalized second law of thermodynamics of a physical system comprising newly proposed dark energy model called Ricci-Gauss-Bonnet and cold dark matter enveloped by apparent horizon and event horizon in flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) universe. For this purpose, Bekenstein entropy, Renyi entropy, logarithmic entropy, and power law entropic corrections are used. It is found that this law exhibits the validity on both apparent and event horizons except for the case of logarithmic entropic correction at apparent horizon. Also, we check the thermodynamical equilibrium condition for all cases of entropy and found its vitality in all cases of entropy.

In this study, the validity of the generalized second law of thermodynamics (GSLT) has been investigated in F(R, G) gravity. We consider that the boundary of the universe is surrounded by an apparent horizon in the spatially flat Friedmann–Robertson–Walker (FRW) universe, and we take into account the Hawking temperature on the horizons. The unified solutions of the field equations corresponding to gravity theory have been applied to the validity of the GSLT frame, and in this way, both the solutions have been verified and all the expansion history of the universe has been shown in a unified picture.

A new perspective toward Einstein’s theory of general relativity, called mimetic gravity, was suggested in [A. H. Chamseddine and V. Mukhanov, J. High Energy Phys. 1311 (2013) 135] by isolating the conformal degree of freedom in a covariant fashion through a re-parametrization of the physical metric in terms of an auxiliary metric and a mimetic field. In this paper, we first derive the Friedmann equations of the Friedmann–Robertson–Walker (FRW) universe with any spatial curvature in mimetic gravity. Then, we disclose that one can always rewrite the Friedmann equations of mimetic cosmology in the form of the first law of thermodynamics, [Formula: see text], on the apparent horizon. We confirm that the entropy associated with the apparent horizon in mimetic cosmology still obeys the area law of entropy which is useful in studying the thermodynamical properties of the black holes in mimetic gravity. We also examine the time evolution of the total entropy in mimetic cosmology and show that, with the local equilibrium assumption, the generalized second law of thermodynamics is fulfilled in a region enclosed by the apparent horizon. Our study further supports the viability of the mimetic gravity from a thermodynamic viewpoint and provides a strong consistency check of this model.

We consider a Friedmann–Robertson–Walker (FRW) universe filled by a dark energy (DE) candidate together with other possible sources which may include the baryonic and nonbaryonic matters. Thereinafter, we consider a situation in which the cosmos sectors do not interact with each other. By applying the unified first law of thermodynamics on the apparent horizon of the FRW universe, we show that the DE candidate may modify the apparent horizon entropy and thus the Bekenstein limit. Moreover, we generalize our study to the models in which the cosmos sectors have a mutual interaction. Our final result indicates that the mutual interaction between the cosmos sectors may add an additional term to the apparent horizon entropy leading to modify the Bekenstein limit. Relationships with previous works have been addressed throughout the paper. Finally, we investigate the validity of the second law of thermodynamics and its generalized form in the interacting and noninteracting cosmoses.

Among various dark energy models, Tsallis holographic dark energy model shows the dynamical enthusiasm to describe the transition phase of the universe. In this paper, we consider Tsallis holographic dark energy with event and apparent horizon as an infrared cutoff in the framework of dynamical Chern–Simon modified gravity and non-flat FRW universe. We explore Hubble, equation of state and deceleration parameters and found that Hubble parameter lies in the range [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] for event and apparent horizon trajectories, respectively. It is mentioned here that the equation of state parameter lies within the range [Formula: see text] (event) and [Formula: see text] (apparent). Also, deceleration parameter for both cases show accelerated and decelerated phase of universe as well as cosmological constant. Moreover, we also checked the stability of our model through square speed of sound, which shows the positive behavior (exhibits the stability of the model). Finally, we observe that the generalized second law of thermodynamics remains valid in both cases of horizon.

In this paper, we first obtain the energy density by the approach of the new agegraphic dark energy model, and then the [Formula: see text] gravity model is studied as an alternative to the dark energy in a viscous fluid by flat-FRW background, in which [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are torsion scalar and boundary term. The Friedmann equations will be obtained in the framework of modified teleparallel gravity by tetrad components. We consider that the universe dominates with components such as matter and dark energy by an interacting model. The Hubble parameter is parameterized by the power-law for the scale factor, and then we fit the corresponding Hubble parameter with observational data constraints. The variation of the equation of state (EoS) for dark energy is plotted as a function of the redshift parameter, and the accelerated expansion of the universe is explored. In what follows, the stability of the model is also studied on the base of the sound speed parameter. Finally, the generalized second law of thermodynamics is investigated by entropies of inside and on the boundary of the apparent horizon in thermodynamics equilibrium.

We examine the validity of the generalized second law of thermodynamics in a non-flat universe in the presence of viscous dark energy. First we assume that the universe is filled only with viscous dark energy. Then, we extend our study to the case where there is an interaction between viscous dark energy and pressureless dark matter. We examine the time evolution of the total entropy, including the entropy associated with the apparent horizon and the entropy of the viscous dark energy inside the apparent horizon. Our study shows that the generalized second law of thermodynamics is always protected in a universe filled with interacting viscous dark energy and dark matter in a region enclosed by the apparent horizon. Finally, we show that the the generalized second law of thermodynamics is fulfilled for a universe filled with interacting viscous dark energy and dark matter by taking into account the Casimir effect.

This paper is devoted to check the validity of laws of thermodynamics for Kaluza–Klein universe in the state of thermal equilibrium, composed of dark matter and dark energy. The generalized holographic dark energy and generalized Ricci dark energy models are considered here. It is proved that the first and generalized second law of thermodynamics are valid on the apparent horizon for both of these models. Further, we take a horizon of radius L with modified holographic or Ricci dark energy. We conclude that these models do not obey the first and generalized second law of thermodynamics on the horizon of fixed radius L for a specific range of model parameters.
