Look Beyond Additivity and Extensivity of Entropy for Black Hole and Cosmological Horizons
Abstract
We present a comparative analysis of the plethora of nonextensive and/or nonadditive entropies which go beyond the standard Boltzmann–Gibbs formulation. After defining the basic notions of additivity, extensivity, and composability, we discuss the properties of these entropies and their mutual relations, if they exist. The results are presented in two informative tables that are of strong interest to the gravity and cosmology community in the context of the recently intensively explored horizon entropies for black hole and cosmological models. Gravitational systems admit long-range interactions, which usually lead to a break of the standard additivity rule for thermodynamic systems composed of subsystems in Boltzmann–Gibbs thermodynamics. The features of additivity, extensivity, and composability are listed systematically. A brief discussion on the validity of the notion of equilibrium temperature for nonextensive systems is also presented.
