2 Modified Einstein equations with the Jacobson’s approach

The Barrow hypothesis suggests that the entropy has the form


The general solution of (2.5) is


where Λ′ is the integration constant. This expression matches the result of [30]. Since our goal is to see what happens when ∆ is a radial function, thus we expand


where c is some constant. By doing a series expansion of (2.6), integrating by parts and collecting powers of ǫ, we find


The limit ǫ → 0 reduces to general relativity.
