Generalised (non-singular) entropy functions with applications to cosmology and black holes

The growing interest of different entropy functions proposed so far (like the Bekenstein-Hawking, Tsallis, Rényi, Barrow, Sharma-Mittal, Kaniadakis and Loop Quantum Gravity entropies) towards black hole thermodynamics as well as towards cosmology lead to the natural question that whether there exists a generalized entropy function that can generalize all these known entropies. With this spirit, we propose a new 4-parameter entropy function that seems to converge to the aforementioned known entropies for certain limits of the entropic parameters. The proposal of generalized entropy is extended to non-singular case, in which case, the entropy proves to be singular-free during the entire cosmological evolution of the universe. The hallmark of such generalized entropies is that it helps us to fundamentally understand one of the important physical quantities namely ``entropy''. Consequently we address the implications of the generalized entropies on black hole thermodynamics as well as on cosmology, and discuss various constraints of the entropic parameters from different perspectives.
