Thermodynamic Analysis of f(Q) Gravity

Working Paper
This content is an early or alternative research output and has not been peer-reviewed by Cambridge University Press at the time of posting.

Abstract

This paper explores the thermodynamic properties of f(Q) gravity from a geometric perspective. The goal is to illustrate why the fundamental laws of thermodynamics can be associated with the effects of "curvature of the time axis and contraction of the space axis" in a high-level analogy, combining the differential geometric formulation of thermodynamics, spacetime symmetries, conservation laws, and entropy discussions in general relativity and statistical mechanics.
