Action in the Entropic Revolution of Newtonian Gravity

Published 17 May 2010 in physics.gen-ph and hep-th | (1006.0723v1)

Abstract: The theory of gravity has undergone somewhat of a revolution lately. Gravity is no longer a fundamental force it seems, but rather an effect of holographic entropy. Building on the works by Jacobsson, Padmanabhan and Verlinde we review the concept of Newtonian gravity as an entropic force and discuss a possible general action approach to Verlinde's theory. We also discuss some open problems and future prospects of Verlinde's approach.
