On the entropic nature of unified interactions

Abstract: In this paper, we generalize Verlinde's entropic gravity proposal on the other fundamental interactions of nature. We begin by introducing the entropic origin of the Coulomb's electrostatic force, and then the magnetic force, by assuming the holographic principle holds when a charged particle approaches a screen enclosing the emerged part of the spacetime due to a source. We assume that the entropy of the screen changes when the charge approaches as in the Verlinde's approach. Thereafter, we obtain the entropic Maxwell equations in both classical and covariant form by means of the holographic principle hold for the source. Considering the gauge covariant structure of the fundamental forces, we implicitly generalize the entropic origin of the electromagnetic force into the strong and weak nuclear forces. The possibility of the entropic origin of the all fundamental forces of nature is assumed to make a meaningful contribution to the unification scheme of the fundamental forces.
