Generalized Second Law of Thermodynamic in Modified Teleparallel Theory

arXiv:1604.02996 · doi:10.1140/epjc/s10052-017-5043-y

Abstract

This study is conducted to examine the validity of generalized second law of thermodynamics (GSLT) in flat FRW for modified teleparallel gravity involving coupling between a scalar field with the torsion scalar $T$ and the boundary term $B=2\nabla_μT^μ$. This theory is very useful since it can reproduce other important well-known scalar field theories in suitable limits. The validity of the first and second law of thermodynamics at the apparent horizon is discussed for any coupling. As examples, we have also explored the validity of those thermodynamics laws in some new cosmological solutions under the theory. Additionally, we have also considered the logarithmic entropy corrected relation and discuss the GSLT at the apparent horizon.
