Emergent cosmic space in Rastall theory

Abstract: Padmanabhan's emergent cosmic space proposal is employed to study the Rastall theory which involves modifying the conservation law of energy-momentum tensor. As a necessary element for this approach, we firstly propose a modified Komar energy which reflects the evolution of the energy-momentum itself in the case of a perfect fluid. After that, an expansion law is invoked to reobtain the Friedmann equation in this theory.
