This article is an open access publicationAbstract We propose the generalized holographic darkenergy model where the infrared cutoff is identified with thecombination of the FRW universe parameters: the Hubblerate, particle and future horizons, cosmological constant, theuniverse lifetime (if finite) and their derivatives. It is demonstrated that with the corresponding choice of the cutoff onecan map such holographic dark energy to modified gravity orgravity with a general fluid. Explicitly, F(R) gravity and thegeneral perfect fluid are worked out in detail and the corresponding infrared cutoff is found. Using this correspondence,we get realistic inflation or viable dark energy or a unifiedinflationary-dark energy universe in terms of covariant holographic dark energy.1 IntroductionQuantum field considerations may play a fundamental rolein the study of the early- and late-universe evolution. Indeed,if we consider a particle with mass m, the quantum correction to the (flat-space) vacuum energy density ρvacuum isgiven byρvacuum 1(2π )3 d3 k 1 2k m2 .2(1)Here the ( ) sign corresponds to the bosonic (fermionic)particle. For large k, the integration diverges but because theobserved value of the vacuum energy is very small, that is, 3 410 eV , the divergence could be absorbed or canceled bya e-mail:nojiri@gravity.phys.nagoya-u.ac.jpb e-mail:odintsov@ieec.uab.essome as yet unknown mechanism.1 On the other hand, if weconsider small k, which corresponds to a large distance, thereshould be a minimum for k, nor there is, at least, a problemin the causality. We call the minimum an infrared cutoff anddenote it by inf . Then we find k inf . If the minimumis really related with the causality, the infrared cutoff inf isrelated with the horizon radius L H as inf 1/L H . Then thevacuum energy (1) could be estimated as ρvacuum m 3infif the particle has non-vanishing mass, m 0 or ρvacuum 4inf if the particle is massless, m 0. Hence, the smallbut non-vanishing vacuum energy might be regarded as theuniverse’ dark energy and, in principle, might generate theaccelerating expansion of the current universe.Of course, the real situation could be much more complicated. For example, the infrared cutoff might be given by thetemperature of the current universe T 10 3 eV; then theenergy scale of the vacuum energy in the present universecan be naturally given if we consider the massless particle, 4ρvacuum 4inf T 4 10 3 eV . We should also notethat the Stefan–Boltzmann law tells us that ρ T 4 althoughonly the thermal energy cannot generate the acceleratingexpansion. In the curved space-time, the cutoff could dependon the space-time curvature or we may use the Hubble horizon as the horizon radius L 1/H , with the Hubble rate H .If we consider the holographic principle [4] (see also [5–24]), the vacuum energy could be proportional to the universeradius square L,ρvacuum 3c2.κ2 L2(2)1In order to solve this problem, a topological model has been proposed[1] and the cosmology in this model has been investigated [2,3].123

528 Page 2 of 8Eur. Phys. J. C (2017) 77:528Here κ is the gravitational coupling and c is a constant. Theproblem of the original holographic dark energy model [4]where the infrared cutoff was chosen as the size of the eventhorizon is the fact that the corresponding FRW equationsoften do not correspond to any covariant gravity theory andeven may not predict the acceleration of the universe. Subsequently, the generalized holographic dark energy has beenproposed in Ref. [25] where the infrared cutoff is identified with a combination of the FRW universe parameters:the Hubble constant, particle and future horizons, cosmological constant and universe lifetime (if finite). Implicitly, thedependence from the derivatives of the corresponding FRWparameters was also assumed. Different versions of the cutoffcorresponding to generalized holographic dark energy [25]have been considered in Refs. [26–41].In this paper, we consider a generalized holographic darkenergy with arbitrary cutoff which depends on the FRW universe parameters for the vacuum energy density ρvacuum . Infact, the choice of the infrared cutoff could be included in thedefinition of the quantum theory in curved space-time. Therefore, unitarity and causality could give important hints to findthe correct definition of the infrared cutoff. The AdS/CFTcorrespondence might also give some indication because theinfrared cutoff could be related with the ultraviolet cutoff inthe corresponding gauge theory. However, there is no definite prediction at all for the choice of the infrared cutoff atleast at present. Then we consider several possibilities forthe cutoff choice. In the next section, we briefly review theholographic dark energy and introduce the covariant generalized holographic dark energy model. Section 3 is devotedto generalized holographic dark energy which is equivalentto F(R) gravity. In this way, consistent inflation naturallyemerges from the covariant generalized holographic darkenergy. In the last section, the reconstruction of the arbitraryfluid as generalized holographic dark energy is developed.The occurrence of a dark energy universe or even a unifiedinflation–dark energy universe in terms of such a theory isdemonstrated.2 Generalized holographic dark energyLet us consider the spatially flat FRW universeds 2 dt 2 a(t)2 dx i2.(3)i 1,2,3Defining the Hubble rate H ȧ(t)/a(t), the first FRW equation has the following form:3 2H ρ ,κ2which gives123(4)H c.L(5)Here we assume that c is positive constant because theexpanding universe is considered. It is well known that ifone chooses the infrared cutoff inf to be the Hubble rateH , the accelerating universe cannot be realized. There aremore possibilities for the choice of the infrared radius L. Forexample, one may choose L to be the particle horizon L p orthe future horizon L f , which is defined by t dt dt ,L.(6)L p (t) a(t)(t) a(t)f a(t )0 a(t )tFor the FRW metric with the flat spatial part in (3), by choosing L as L p or L f , we find the following equation: c1d .(7)dt a(t)H (t)a(t)Here, the ( ) sign corresponds to the particle (future) horizon. We can easily solve Eq. (7) and finda(t) a0 t h 0 ,(8)withh0 11 1c.(9)Then, in the case L L f , the universe is acceleratingbecause h 0 1. When c 1, in the case L L p , h 0becomes negative and the universe is shrinking. If one canchange the direction of time as t ts t, instead of (8), wefinda(t) a0 (ts t)h 0 .(10)Then there will be a Big Rip singularity at t ts . Because wechange the direction of time, the particle horizon becomes afuture-like one, tsdt da a(t). (11)L p (t) L̃ f (t) a(t) 2t a(t )a(t) H aNote that if we choose L as a future horizon L L f , thereis a solution describing the de Sitter space-time, t1H .(12)a(t) a0 e llIf we choose, however, the particle horizon as L, the solutiondescribing the de Sitter space-time does not exist. Additionally to the fact that not all choices of cutoff may lead to theaccelerating universe, it is easy to see that the corresponding FRW equations cannot be obtained from some covariantaction.

Eur. Phys. J. C (2017) 77:528Page 3 of 8 528In general, L could be a combination (a function) of bothL p and L f [42]. Furthermore, if there is a Big Rip singularityat t ts and therefore the lifetime of the universe is finite, Lcan also be a function of ts . More general, it could be the casethat L depends on the Hubble rate H and also the curvatureas we have mentioned (see also Ref. [25]), L L L p , L̇ p , L̈ p , . . . , L f , L̇ f , L̈ f , . . . , ts , H, Ḣ , Ḧ , . . . .1R11 1 22L12 2h1 h 21t021 h 20h 211h0 L 2 h11 2t0t0L 2f .(17)Even in the model (17), the Hubble rate H (15) is again thesolution. Hence, generalized holographic dark energy mayunify the inflation with dark energy.(13)3 Holographic description of F(R) gravitySome of the cutoffs given by (13) cannot be obtained fromthe covariant gravity theory. Still such a possibility should notbe excluded because the FRW background breaks the covariance or at least the Lorentz symmetry, in some sense, spontaneously. A similar example might be the Casimir force,which could also appear because we break Lorentz invariance by the boundary conditions. We call the theory with theabove cutoff covariant generalized holographic dark energyin the case where it may be equivalently described by somecovariant theory. Later on, we shall give some examples ofsuch a theory where the equivalence with modified gravityor fluid theory is established.Let us demonstrate that the above model may unify theearly-time inflation and the current accelerating expansionof the universe. We consider the case that c 1 and L isgiven by 12h 0h111 1 Lt0 h 0 L ft0 h 1t01 h 20h 21Lf.(14)th1 t0t0 h 0 h 1 tanhtt0cosh2BecauseL̇ p H L p 1,L̇ f H L f 1,tt0.

Similarly, the equivalence withother modified gravities like modified Gauss–Bonnet gravity,non-local gravity, string-inspired theory may be established.As an example, we consider the case thatf (R) α R 2 ,p ρ h(ρ).Here p is the pressure and ρ is the energy density and h(ρ)is a function of the energy density ρ. By using (20), theconservation law,d f (R L ) d2 f (R L ) dtdt 2 κ 2 pmatter .Hence, the correspondence between the F(R) gravity andthe covariant generalized holographic dark energy modelsis established. This equivalence shows how to describe theaccelerating universe in terms of generalized holographicdark energy.One may further develop the correspondence between theholographic dark energy and the perfect fluid.

Due tothe well-known equivalence between the fluid descriptionand the scalar–tensor description (for a review, see [50])one can extend the above correspondence to scalar–tensortheory.5 Discussion(54)Again, the holographic description of the above perfect fluidis established.As an example which unifies the inflation and the latetime accelerating expansion, one may consider the followingmodel:ρ(t) e l a(t).1 a(t)(55)At the early universe, where a(t) 0, we find that ρ goesto a constant, ρ e and even at the late universe, where123In summary, we proposed the generalized holographic darkenergy model where the infrared cutoff is identified with acombination of the FRW parameters: the Hubble rate, particle and future horizons, cosmological constant and universelifetime and the derivatives of the corresponding parameters. It is pointed out that, for simple and natural choices ofthe infrared cutoff, motivated by the considerations of theunitarity and causality or AdS/CFT related hints, the emerging universe may be not accelerating. Furthermore, it oftenhappens that such a holographic model does not admit thecovariant description. However, as we demonstrate in this

Eur. Phys. J. C (2017) 77:528Page 7 of 8 528letter, with a more complicated choice of the infrared cutoffone can map the (covariant) generalized holographic darkenergy to the modified gravity or to general relativity with aquite general fluid. Specifically, the examples of the arbitraryF(R) gravity and perfect fluids are worked out in detail. Itis explicitly shown how to get the realistic inflationary universe, or a viable dark energy universe or even the unification of the inflation with dark energy epoch in the frameworks of specific covariant generalized holographic darkenergy.The results of this letter give a clear recipe on how torewrite the arbitrary modified gravity including the scalar–tensor theory or gravity theory with fluid matter as the covariant holographic model. It may indicate that different descriptions of the universe evolution may have a common originrelated with a yet not fully understood symmetry somehowrelated with holography.We have established that F(R) gravity can be rewritten inthe holographic language at the level of background equivalence. Then it might be interesting if we consider the equivalence at the perturbation level. In the standard formulation ofthe holographic dark energy, the infrared cutoff only dependson the time coordinate but the scalar curvature also dependson the space coordinates. Hence, in Eq. (21), L p or L f shouldalso depend on the space coordinates when we consider theperturbation, although L p and L f should be usually spatiallyconstant in the standard holographic dark energy. This indicates that there is no equivalence at the perturbation levelbetween the holographic dark energy and the F(R) gravity.We expect that the spectral index n s and the scalar–tensorratio r are the same in both models but cosmological perturbations theory may lead to different results. Furthermore,the infrared cutoff can depend on the point where we areconsidering the theory. For example, near a black hole, theinfrared cutoff should depend on the spatial coordinates inaddition to the time coordinate. Such an infrared cutoff couldalso depend on the non-local quantities as the position of theblack hole or the local fluctuation of the expansion and therefore it could be rather difficult to formulate the perturbationin such a complicated case.As another example of the dark energy models, we mayconsider the viscous dark energy model (see [51] and thereferences therein) where a bulk viscosity in the cosmic fluidgenerates the accelerating expansion of the universe. In theviscous dark energy model, the conservation law of the fluidis modified by the bulk viscosity ζ as follows:ρ̇ 3H (ρ p) 9ζ H 2 .(61)Then the FRW equations are modified as follows:3H 2 κ 2 ρ, 3H 2 2 Ḣ κ 2 ( p 3ζ H ) .(62)By comparing Eq. (62) with Eq. (63), we may identify f (R)d f (R)12 3 H Ḣ f (R) 3H,ρ 2 κ2dt 1 f (R)d f (R)p 2 Ḣ 3H 2 f (R) 6Hκ2dt 2 d f (R) 9ζ H 2 .(63)dt 2In the holographic view point, H can be given by the infraredcutoff as shown in (20). Therefore the conservation law ofthe fluid in (61) can be further rewritten asρ̇ 3H (ρ p) ρ̇ 3 9ζL̇ p1 LpLp ρ̇ 3 9ζL̇ p1 LpLp(ρ p)2L̇ f1 LfLfL̇ f1 LfLf(ρ p)2.(64)Further by using a more general infrared cutoff in (13), wemay write (61) as follows: 2ρ̇ 3H (ρ p) 9ζ H L , L̇, L̈, . . . , ts , . . . .(65)This indicates that viscous dark energy may be related withthe holographic dark energy or vice versa.It might also be interesting to consider the holographicdark energy in the brane cosmology [39,52,53]. In D dimensional space-time, the total energy in the region with a radiusr does not exceed the mass of the maximum black hole in theregion. In terms of the Schwarzschild radius rs , the mass Mis proportional to rsD 3 , M rsD 3 ; then the energy densityρ is restricted toρ M rs r r 2 .V(66)Here V is the volume of the region, which is proportionalto r D 1 . Then by choosing r to be the infrared cutoff L, wefind ρ L 2 . Hence, if we consider the D 1 dimensionalbrane in the D dimensional bulk space-time, an energy density which is proportional to L 2 is induced, and its behaviorcoincides with the behavior of the four dimensional holographic dark energy in (2). Therefore F(R) or any othermodified gravity in the bulk and/or the brane can be rewritten as the holographic dark energy. This will be consideredelsewhere.123

emerges from the covariant generalized holographic dark energy. In the last section, the reconstruction of the arbitrary fluid as generalized holographic dark energy is developed. The occurrence of a dark energy universe or even a unified inflation-dark energy universe in terms of such a theory is demonstrated. 2 Generalized holographic .
