A study of Universal thermodynamics is done in the framework of RSII brane model and DGP brane scenario. The Universe is chosen as FRW model bounded by apparent or event horizon. Assuming extended Hawking temperature on the horizon, the unified first law is examined for perfect fluid (with constant equation of state) and Modified Chaplygin Gas model. As a result there is a modification of Bekenstein entropy on the horizons. Further the validity of the generalized second law of thermodynamics and thermodynamical equilibrium are also investigated.

In the present work we investigated the validity of the generalized second law (GSL) of thermodynamics in the presence of interaction between DBI-essence and other four candidates of dark energy, namely the modified Chaplygin gas, hessence, tachyonic field and new agegraphic dark energy. It has been observed that the GSL breaks down in the presence of the interactions. However, the event horizon remains to be an increasing function of time.

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.

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.

Assuming the universe as a thermodynamical system, the second law of thermodynamics can be extended to another form including the sum of matter and horizon entropies, which is called the generalized second law of thermodynamics. The generalized form of the second law (GSL) is universal which means it holds both in non-equilibrium and equilibrium pictures of thermodynamics. Considering the universe is bounded by a dynamical apparent horizon, we investigate the nature of entropy function for the validity of GSL in the scalar–tensor–vector (STEVE) theory of gravity.

It has previously been shown that it is more common to describe the evolution of the universe based on the emergence of space and the energy balance relation. Here we investigate the thermodynamic properties of the universe described by such a model. We show that the first law of thermodynamics and the generalized second law of thermodynamics (GSLT) are both satisfied and the weak energy condition are also fulfilled for two typical examples. Finally, we examine the physical consistency for the present model. The results show that there exists a good thermodynamic description for such a universe.

The present paper reports a study on modified Chaplygin gas (MCG)-based reconstruction scheme for extended holographic Ricci dark energy (EHRDE) in the presence of viscous type dissipative term. The dissipative effect has been described by using Eckart approach. Under the assumption that the universe is filled with MCG–EHRDE under the influence of bulk viscosity we have studied the cosmological dynamics, where the bulk viscosity coefficient has been chosen in a particular time varying form [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are constant coefficients and [Formula: see text] is the Hubble parameter. Furthermore, we have reconstructed the potential and dynamics of viscous MCG–EHRDE as scalar field. Thereafter we have studied the statefinder trajectories to discern its departure from [Formula: see text] cold dark matter ([Formula: see text]CDM) and finally investigated validity of the generalized second law (GSL) of thermodynamics considering event horizon as the enveloping horizon of the universe.

We consider a model of the Universe with variable G and Λ. The subject of interest is a phenomenological model for Λ proposed and considered in this article for the first time (to our knowledge), with the assumption that ghost dark energy exists and interacts with the Universe through Λ. We consider the possibility that there exist unusual connections between different components of the fluids in Universe. We would like to stress that this is simply an assumption and could be very far from reality. This model is interesting phenomenologically and mathematically but we will not discuss physical conditions or possibilities of implementing the modifications. To test our assumption and to observe the behavior of the Universe, we will consider toy models filled by a barotropic fluid and modified Chaplyagin gas. Finally, we will consider interaction between barotropic fluid or Chaplygin gas and ghost dark energy as a separate scenario. The statefinder diagnostic provided stability analysis of the models. All free parameters of the model are fixed to satisfy the generalized second law of thermodynamics.
