Thermodynamics of Barrow Holographic Dark Energy with Speciﬁc Cut-Off

: Motivated by the work of Saridakis ( Phys. Rev. D 102 , 123525 (2020)), the present study reports the cosmological consequences of Barrow holographic dark energy (HDE) and its thermodynamics. The literature demonstrates that dark energy (DE) may result from electroweak symmetry breaking that triggers a phase transition from early inﬂation to late-time acceleration. In the present study, we incorporated viscosity in the Barrow HDE. A reconstruction scheme is presented for the parameters associated with Barrow holographic dark energy under the purview of viscous cosmology. The equation of state (EoS) parameter is reconstructed in this scenario and quintessence behaviour is observed. Considering Barrow HDE as a speciﬁc case of Nojiri–Odintsov (NO) HDE, we have observed quintom behaviour of the EoS parameter and for some values of n the EoS has been observed to be very close to − 1 for the current universe. The generalised second law of thermodynamics has come out to be valid in all the scenarios under consideration. Physical viability of considering Barrow HDE as a speciﬁc case of NO HDE is demonstrated in this study. Finally, it has been observed that the model under consideration is very close to Λ CDM and cannot go beyond it.


Introduction
Gerard 't Hooft proposed the famous Holographic Principle (HP) inspired by blackhole thermodynamics [1,2]. HP states that all the information contained in a volume of space can be represented as a hologram, which corresponds to a theory located on the boundary of that space [3]. It is widely believed that HP is a fundamental principle of quantum gravity.
In the late 1990s, Reiss et al. [4] and Perlmutter et al. [5] independently reported that the current universe is passing through a phase of accelerated expansion. This started a new era in Modern Cosmology. The authors of [4,5] proved this by observational data. This was further supported by other observational studies [6][7][8][9][10]. Characterised by negative pressure to some exotic matter is thought to be responsible for this acceleration. The exotic matter is dubbed as "dark energy" (DE) [11,12]. It is described by an equation of state (EoS) parameter defined as w = p ρ , where p is the pressure and ρ is the density due to DE. One can easily verify from Friedmann's equations that w < −1 3 is a necessary condition for the accelerated expansion of the universe. The simplest candidate of DE is cosmological constant (Λ), characterised by EoS parameter w = −1 [13]. Various DE models have been reviewed in the literature [11,12,[14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]. From References [27,28], currently the DE percentage is 68.3%. The remaining density is due to dark matter (DM), baryonic matter and radiation. The contributions of baryonic matter and radiation are negligible with respect to the total density of the universe. Dimopoulos and Markkanen [29] have demonstrated that it is possible to obtain DE from the interplay of Higgs boson and inflation, and it has further been demonstrated that a key element for the same result is the electroweak symmetry breaking that can lead to a transition to inflation to late-time acceleration.
One of the broad types of DE candidates is Holographic DE (HDE), which is discussed in References [30][31][32][33][34][35]. The principle of HDE is HP. Its density is given by ρ Λ = 3c 2 M p 2 L −2 [31,36,37], where c 2 represents a dimensionless constant, M p is the reduced Planck mass and L stands for infrared (IR) cut-off. To date, there are different modifications in IR cut-off being made. HDE can be accounted for also using corrections without barotropic fluids, for example [38,39]. Observational constraints on DE and HDE can be also found in [40]. In this paper, we will study the Barrow Holographic DE.
In the Covid 19 pandemic, Barrow was very much inspired by its illustrations and deduced that intricate, fractal features on the black-hole structure may be introduced by the quantum-gravitational effects [41]. This complex structure leads to infinite/finite area but with finite volume. Therefore, the entropy expression to a deformed black-hole is [41] where A is the standard horizon area and A 0 is the Planck area. The quantum gravitational deformation is quantified by ∆ and ∆ = 0 corresponds to the standard Bekenstein-Hawking entropy. In addition, ∆ = 1 corresponds to the most intricate and fractal structure. Note that the usual " quantum-corrected" entropy with logarithmic corrections is very much different than the "above quantum-gravitationally corrected entropy ". No doubt, the involved foundation and physical principles are completely different but resemble Tsallis non-extensive entropy. Gordon M. Barrow quoted "Thermodynamics should be built on energy not on heat and work" [42][43][44][45][46]. The standard HDE is given by ρ DE L 4 ≤ S, where L = horizon length and S ∝ A ∝ L 2 . Therefore, using the Barrow entropy Equation (1) lead to where C is the parameter with dimension [L] −2(∆+1) . When ∆ = 0, the expression (2) will be standard HDE, i.e., ρ DE = 3c 2 M p 2 L −2 ( M p is the Planck mass and L is IR cut-off) where C = 3c 2 M p 2 and c 2 is the model parameter. When the deformation effects quantified by ∆, Barrow HDE will deviate from standard HDE and hence leading to different cosmological consequences. It is very interesting to note that in the limiting case of ∆ → 1, the above expression becomes the constant, i.e., ρ DE = constant.
The concept of viscosity has been analysed from different viewpoints in cosmology [47,48]. The universe consists of various components having different equations of state and cooling rate. Hence, there exist many contexts under which the bulk viscosity causes exponential decay of anisotropy [48]. The viscosity term in the viscosity model dominates the cosmic pressure and exceeds the pressure contribution from other cosmic matter contributions, which contradicts the traditional fluid theory [49]. In this context, let us refer to the extensive review of viscous cosmologies by Medina et al. [50]. In the study of [50], it was demonstrated that bulk viscosity is compatible with the FRW metric and our current study is in line with this. Furthermore, it has been shown by Murphy [51] that the bulk viscosity can lead to a non-singular universe and the consequences of the bulk universe have been discussed in many other studies. In the subsequent sections we are going to demonstrate Barrow HDE under the purview of bulk viscosity and as a specific case of the Nojiri-Odintsov cut-off.
Nojiri and Odintsov [52] developed cosmological models, where the DE and DM were treated as imperfect fluids. Viscous fluids represent one particular case of what was presented in [52]. In the paper, we will incorporate the viscosity term in the various parameters of Barrow HDE. The paper is organised as follows: In Section 2, we will reconstruct the density, thermodynamic pressure of Barrow HDE. We will also reconstruct effective pressure, effective EoS of Viscous Barrow HDE. We will also calculate viscous pressure of Barrow HDE. We will plot density versus ∆; effective EoS versus redshift z and bulk viscous pressure of viscous Barrow HDE versus redshift z versus C. We will study accordingly. In Section 3, we will study the generalised second law of thermodynamics of viscous Barrow HDE using Barrow entropy. In Section 4, we will reconstruct the density, EoS parameter of Barrow HDE as a Specific NO HDE. We will plot EoS versus redshift z in this case and will study the outcomes. In Section 4.1, we will study the validity of the generalised second law of thermodynamics for Barrow HDE with NO cut-off. Here, we will plot the total entropy of the Barrow HDE with an NO cut-off against the cosmic time t. We give our conclusions in the Concluding Remarks.

Viscous Barrow Holographic Dark Energy
In this section we study the effect of viscosity in Barrow HDE. As it is known, viscosity refers to the resistance to flow. By considering many components in the cosmology, there is a contribution of bulk viscosity in the thermodynamic pressure [53], which also plays a very important and crucial role in accelerating the universe. The term bulk viscosity arises because of different cooling rates of the components. We can affirm that the bulk viscous pressure in cosmic media emerges as a result of coupling among the different component of the cosmic substratum [54][55][56][57][58][59][60]. In this context, we would like to mention that in recent years there has been an increased interest in studying cosmic fluid under the purview of bulk viscosity. In a recent work by [61], it has been demonstrated how bulk viscous modifications to the equation of state leads to physically viable results.
Here we will reconstruct the thermodynamic pressure of Barrow HDE with viscosity. Let us assume R h is the radius of event horizon, then it is given bẏ or, Let us assume that infrared (IR) cut-off is the event horizon. Therefore replacing L in Equation (2) with R h , we get the density of Barrow HDE ρ DE as where R h = radius of event horizon and C is constant. The deformation effect is quantified by ∆. As the DM is in the form of a dust particle, we can consider it as pressureless DM, i.e., p m = 0. The two Friedmann equations are 3H 2 = ρ DE + ρ m and 6ä a = −( The conservation equation for pressureless DM isρ m + 3Hρ m = 0. By solving the expression, we get Now we are introducing density parameters Ω m and Ω DE and they are given by and For ∆ = 1, the scenario coincides with ΛCDM cosmology with ρ DE = constant = Λ. Using density parameters from expressions (7) and (8) in the expressions (4) and (5), we obtain Using ρ m from Equation (6) in Equation (7), we obtain where Ω m0 H 0 2 = ρ m0 3 . Now using the Friedmann Equation Ω m + Ω DE = 1 and also using Equations (8) and (10), we get Inserting Equation (11) Differentiating Equation (12) with respect to x = lna, one gets where (13) is the evolution of Barrow HDE in a flat universe for dust matter. For ∆ = 0, it coincides with the usual HDE, i.e., From Equation (3) taking H from Equation (14), we get R h as Now using this R h in Equation (5), we obtain the reconstructed density of Barrow HDE ρ DE,rec as As now we have ρ DE,rec (Equation (16)), H (Equation (14)) and let us take p e f f = p DE + Π and using these in the conservation equationρ DE,rec + 3H(ρ DE,rec + p e f f ) = 0, we obtain Therefore, thermodynamic pressure p DE = p e f f − Π. Hence, which is the thermodynamic pressure of DE involving the viscous term ξ. As the viscous term is involved here, we can take p DE = effective pressure. Hence, effective pressure p e f f is Equation (18). As we know the effective Eos, w e f f = p e f f ρ DE,rec . Thereby, using p e f f from Equation (18) and ρ DE,rec from Equation (16), we get effective EoS as Now we will insert ∆ in Π, to make it a viscous pressure in Barrow HDE. Now using ρ DE,rec from Equation (16), w e f f from Equation (19) in the conservation equatioṅ ρ DE,rec + 3Hρ DE,rec (1 + w e f f ) = 0, we get H. Let us name it as H rec , which is given by Let us assume the power-law form of scale factor as a(t) = a 0 (t − t 0 ) n . As we know that H =˙a a , by using the power-law form of scale factor, we get H. Let us denote this H by H recc , which is given by It is obvious that H recc is defined for the case t = t 0 , i.e., H will be having singularity at t = t 0 . Now, by using H recc in place of H in ξ i.e., ξ = ξ 0 + ξ 1 H recc + ξ 2 (Ḣ recc + H 2 recc ). Then, using this ξ and H as H rec from Equation (20) in Π = −3Hξ, we obtain the viscous pressure in Barrow HDE as where, . Now we will reconstruct a thermodynamic DE pressure i.e., p DE,rec to make it thermodynamic pressure of viscous Barrow HDE. Thus, in the conservation equationρ DE,rec + 3H(ρ DE,rec + p DE,rec + Π) = 0, using ρ DE,rec from Equation (16), Π from Equation (22), H as H rec from Equation (20), we obtain p DE,rec , which is a thermodynamic pressure of viscous Barrow HDE. Now using Taylor series expansion in the term √ 1 − Ω DE of Equation (11) and ignoring higher order derivatives, Now, using Ω DE from Equation (23) in Equation (19), we get w e f f and plotted the evolution of effective EoS (19) of viscous Barrow HDE against the redshift z in Figure 1. In this figure, we have made the following choices of parameters: a 0 = 0.2, C = 10 45 , C 1 = 0.00015, Ω m0 = 0.002, t 0 = 0.20, ξ 0 = 0.5, ξ 1 = 0.1, ξ 2 = 0.92, ∆ = 0.04. We would like to mention that following Elizalde et al. [62], we have chosen H 0 = 73.393 ± 0.1 km/s/Mpc . In this context we would like to mention that the parameters are not chosen by any standard optimisation technique. Rather, we have confined ourselves to the ranges already mentioned in the existing literature. From the figure we observe that behaviour of the effective EoS parameter w e f f (19) is quintessence. Now we will study the behaviour of ρ DE,rec (Equation (16)) when ∆ → −1.
We have plotted the reconstructed density of Barrow HDE against redshift z in Figure 2 for a range of values of ∆. In Figure 2 it is observed that density of Barrow HDE has an increasing tendency when the deformation quantifying factor ∆ tends to 1. Moreover, at higher values of ∆, the density converges to a point for early current and future universe. This indicates that at that point we can study the evolution of the universe at large for different phases of evolution.
Using the expression of Ω DE from Equation (23) in the expression of bulk viscous pressure of Barrow HDE Π, i.e., Equation (22), we have plotted Π versus redshift z versus C in Figure 3. This figure shows that the constant of Barrow HDE has a significant role to play in the bulk viscous pressure. The effect of bulk viscosity is more for the higher values of C than the lower values. It is further observed that under the current framework the effect of bulk viscosity has a decaying pattern with redshift.

Generalised Second Law of Thermodynamics of Viscous Barrow HDE
In this section, we will study the generalised second law of thermodynamics using barrow entropy [46]. We consider the universe horizon to be the boundary of the thermo-dynamical system. We can take it as an apparent horizon, as it is the most appropriate one. There are many choices in the literature and we chose here the apparent horizon [42][43][44]. The apparent horizon is given byr where k quantifies the spatial curvature and hence k = 0, as we considered the universe to be flat. Therefore Equation (24) becomesr From the first Friedmann equation 3H 2 = ρ m + ρ DE and Equation (25), we get Using ρ m = ρ m0 a −3 , a = a 0 (t − t 0 ) n and ρ DE,rec from Equation (16) in place of ρ DE in Equation (26), we get apparent horizonr A . Now we will check whether the total entropy of the system, i.e., sum of the entropy enclosed by the apparent horizon plus entropy of the apparent horizon of the system is a non-decreasing function of time or not. The apparent horizonr A is dependent on time. Therefore, changes in apparent horizon dr A in time interval dt will contribute a change in volume dV. Hence, the energy and entropy of the system will change by dE and dS, respectively. The first law of thermodynamics is TdS = dE + PdV. Therefore, the dark energy entropy and dark matter entropy will be [45]: where dS DE = DE entropy, dS m = DM entropy, P DE = DE pressure, P m = DM pressure. V is the universe volume bounded by apparent horizon and is given by V = 4πr 3 A 3 . Therefore, dV = 4πr A 2 dr A . We assume the system to be in equilibrium, so we can consider the temperature of the universe fluids to be same. Dividing Equations (27) and (28) by t, we geṫ To consider the relationship between thermodynamical quantitiesĖ DE andĖ m with cosmological quantities ρ DE and ρ m , we use Now we haver A , so we can findṙ A , E DE from Equation (31), E m from Equation (32) and henceĖ DE andĖ m . We consider T ≈ horizon temperature (T h ) = 1 2πr A . Therefore, we can calculateṠ DE andṠ m from Equations (29) and (30), respectively. Now we will calculate horizon entropyṠ h . Applying entropy expression to a deformed black hole Equation (1) with standard horizon area A = 4πr 2 A , we get S h = γr . Therefore, horizon entropy is given bẏ Therefore,Ṡ total =Ṡ DE +Ṡ m +Ṡ h . After calculatingṠ total , we plotted it in Figure 4. In this figure, we have considered a 0 = 0.001, C = 0.09, C 1 = 0.00015, H 0 = 73.32, Ω m0 = 0.002, t 0 = 0.20, ξ 0 = 0.000005, ξ 1 = 0.00001, ξ 2 = 0.92, ρ m0 = 0.32, A 0 = 0.00905. From the figure we have seen thatṠ total is positive and is non-decreasing. Hence, it satisfies the second law of thermodynamics. This implies the validity of the generalised second law of thermodynamics in the case of viscous Barrow HDE. It is further observed that with evolution of the universeṠ total is increasing. This indicates that the validity of the generalised second law of thermodynamics is expected to occur with the evolution of the universe in case of viscous Barrow HDE.

Barrow HDE as a Specific NO HDE
In this section, we consider Barrow HDE as a particular case of NO HDE. The NO HDE was proposed in the work of Nojiri and Odintsov [34]. This was further studied in [11]. The DE density for NO HDE is defined as where R h is the future event horizon discussed in Equations (3) and (4). For the choice of power law form of scale factor a(t) = a 0 (t − t 0 ) n , we have IR cut off L as L = c (n−1)α 0 t+C 2 (n−1)(t−t 0 ) n −t 0 At this juncture, before passing on to the reconstruction approach let us have an overview of the background of the NO HDE. In this context, it may be noted that Nojiri and Odintsov [34] demonstrated a unifying approach to the early and late-time universe through a phantom cosmology. They considered a gravity-scalar system containing the usual potential and scalar coupling function within the kinetic term. Their study [34] resulted in the possibility of a phantom-non-phantom transition in such a manner that the universe could have the phantom EoS in the early as well as in the late-time. Contrary to the study of [34], our work, a specific case of NO HDE, has led to a quintessence behaviour with no crossing of the phantom boundary; see Figure 1. In this connection, we further note that the generalised HDE with NO cut-off, as proposed in [34], suggested a unified cosmological scenario for tachyon phantoms and for time-dependent phantomic EoS. We further take into account the study of Nojiri and Odintsov [63], where a generalised HDE was proposed with infrared cut-off identified with the combination of the FRW universe parameters. Their study took into account the Hubble rate H(t) = f 0 |t s − t| α . However, in our study, we have taken into consideration a Hubble rate H = n t−t 0 , for which we could get a universe where the generalised second law of thermodynamics has come out to be valid. Hence, we can state that the Barrow HDE, a specific case of more general NO HDE can lead to a universe where the generalised second law of thermodynamics is valid. Nojiri et al. [64] established that at late times, the effective fluid can act as the driving force behind the accelerated expansion in the absence of a cosmological constant. Consistent with the findings of [64] in our work on a specific form of NO HDE, the generalised second law appeared to be valid without any cosmological constant. In this context let us mention the work of Nojiri et al. [65], who applied the HP at early times to realise the bounce scenario. The current study with a specific NO HDE cut-off can be further extended to check the realisation of holographic bounce and to study the mechanism of holographic preheating [65] under this framework. Lastly, let us mention the study of Nojiri et al. [66], which confronted the cosmological scenario arising from the application of non-extensive thermodynamics with varying exponents. Their study could provide a description of both inflation and late-time acceleration with the same choices of parameters. We further reiterate that the current Barrow HDE can be examined for its realisation for early inflation and late-time acceleration as a specific case of NO HDE. Now we demonstrate Barrow HDE as a specific case of NO HDE. In Equations (34)-(36), c, α 0 , α 1 and α 2 are numerical constants and C 2 is the constant of integration. Equation (36) represents the NO cut-off as a function of cosmic time t. Now, we consider this NO cut-off as the cut-off for Barrow HDE and from this consideration, we get Barrow HDE generalised by NO HDE and hence, we get the density for Barrow HDE generalised through NO cut-off ρ BarrowHDE , which is We will find the thermodynamic pressure for Barrow HDE generalised through NO cut-off, i.e., p BarrowHDE from the conservation equationρ BarrowHDE + 3H(ρ BarrowHDE + p BarrowHDE ) = 0, we get p BarrowHDE . Hence, the EoS parameter for Barrow HDE generalised through NO cut-off i.e., w BarrowHDE can be calculated by using ρ BarrowHDE from Equation (37) and p BarrowHDE on equation w BarrowHDE = p BarrowHDE ρ BarrowHDE . In Figure 5, we have plotted the EoS parameter for Barrow HDE as a specific case of NO HDE. In this figure, the evolution of the reconstructed EoS parameter is demonstrated for ∆ = 0.4 and the range of values of 1.5 ≤ n ≤ 2. It is apparent from this figure that for smaller values of n, the transition from quintessence to phantom is happening at an earlier stage of the universe. However, for n ≈ 2, the transition is happening at a later stage. Therefore, in general we can say that the EoS parameter for Barrow HDE reconstructed through NO HDE is characterise by quintom behaviour. Moreover, for n ≈ 1.56, we have w BarrowHDE ≈ −1 for z = 0 and hence, it is consistent with the observation. Hence, we can conclude that as the IR cut-off for Barrow HDE is reconstructed through NO HDE, the transition from quintessence to phantom is available. It further indicates that under this reconstruction scheme the universe may end with a Big-Rip in the future.

Generalised Second Law of Thermodynamics for Barrow HDE with NO Cut-Off
In this subsection, we have studied the generalised second law of thermodynamics for Barrow HDE with NO cut-off using Barrow entropy as in Section 3. We have proceeded similarly as Section 3 just by taking the scale factor as a(t) = a 0 (t − t 0 ) n , with n > 0. We have calculated the total entropy of the Barrow HDE with NO cut-off, i.e.,Ṡ total,BarrowHDE , and plotted this in Figure 6 against the cosmic time t. In this figure, we have considered a 0 = 0.001, c = 0.06, α 0 = 0.004, α 1 = 0.005, α 2 = 0.0003, C = 0.00015, C 2 = 0.09, t 0 = 0.20, ∆ = 0.04, ρ m0 = 0.32, A 0 = 0.00905. Figure 6 indicates thatṠ total,BarrowHDE is positive and non-decreasing. Therefore, we have observed the validity of the generalised second law of thermodynamics when Barrow HDE is considered as a specific case of NO HDE.

Concluding Remarks
Motivated by the work of Saridakis [41], the present study attempts to probe the cosmological consequences of Barrow HDE and its thermodynamics. In the first phase of the study, we have studied the effect of bulk viscosity in the presence of Barrow HDE. We have reconstructed the density of Barrow HDE as ρ DE,rec in Equation (16). We also found effective pressure p e f f of viscous Barrow HDE as in Equation (18). After finding p e f f (Equation (18)), we have derived effective EoS of viscous Barrow HDE w e f f as in Equation (19). Thereafter, we calculated viscous pressure Π in Equation (22) and we also reconstructed thermodynamic pressure p DE,rec of viscous Barrow HDE. In Figure 1, we have plotted w e f f (Equation (19)) versus redshift z. From Figure 1, we observed that the behaviour of w e f f (Equation (19)) is quintessence. Next, we studied the behaviour of ρ DE,rec (Equation (16)) as ∆ → 1 (see Figure 2). It is apparent from this figure that there is an increasing tendency of ρ DE,rec (Equation (16)) as the deformation quantifying factor ∆ → 1, which indicates that we can study the evolution of the universe in its different phases. In addition, we have studied the behaviour of the bulk viscous pressure Π (Equation (22)) under the purview of Barrow HDE with the evolution of the universe for a range of values of C in Figure 3. The study demonstrated above shows the decaying effect of bulk viscous pressure with the evolution of the universe. Furthermore, the positive impact of the deformation quantifying factor on the bulk viscous pressure is understandable from this figure. This is in contrast with the finding of [67], where the effect of bulk viscosity was found to have an increasing pattern under the purview of holographic Ricci DE.
In Section 3, we have demonstrated the generalised second law of thermodynamics under the purview of the bulk-viscosity of the Barrow HDE. Here, for the study we have taken apparent horizon as the enveloping horizon of the universe. We have calculated the total entropyṠ total of the system. TheṠ total has been plotted in Figure 4, which shows thaṫ S total corresponding to the viscous Barrow HDE is increasing and is staying at a positive level. Therefore, we conclude that the generalised second law of thermodynamics is obeyed by this model [68]. This finding is consistent with the study of [68], where the validity of generalised second law of thermodynamics was examined in the presence of viscous DE and it was observed that the generalised second law of thermodynamics is fulfilled in the presence of bulk viscosity. However, the approach of the current study differs from Setare and Sheykhi [68] in the sense that the standard Eckart approach is adopted here.
In Section 4, we have demonstrated reconstructed schemes of Barrow HDE as a specific NO HDE. We have reconstructed the density, i.e., ρ BarrowHDE in Equation (37) for Barrow HDE generalised through NO cut-off. We have also reconstructed the EoS parameter w BarrowHDE for Barrow HDE generalised through NO cut-off and plotted it in Figure 5. This figure shows the quintom behaviour of w BarrowHDE . Moreover, w BarrowHDE ≈ −1 at z = 0 for some values of n. It also suggests that the universe may end with a Big-Rip in the future. Finally, for this reconstructed Barrow HDE we have demonstrated the generalised second law of thermodynamics. For the Barrow HDE with NO cut-off it is observed that (see Figure 6) the time derivative of the total entropy is staying at a positive level and hence, it is concluded that the generalised second law holds if we consider Barrow HDE as a specific case of NO HDE.
While concluding, let us have a look into the reconstructed Barrow HDE for its attainability of a ΛCDM fixed point. It is done through statefinder parameters [69,70]  , where q is the deceleration parameter given by q = −ä aH 2 . The trajectories in the {r − s} plane can exhibit different behaviours for different models. The deviation from the point (1, 0) indicates the departure of a model from ΛCDM model. In the present study, the reconstructed Barrow HDE is tested for its deviation from ΛCDM model through the statefinder trajectory plotted in Figure 7 for different values of n. It is observed that this reconstructed Barrow HDE can attain r ≈ 1, s ≈ 0. Hence, we can conclude that this model is very close to ΛCDM. Furthermore, it is also observed that the statefinder trajectories cannot go beyond the ΛCDM fixed point. In this context, let us comment on the departure of the model from ΛCDM. The attaintment of ΛCDM leads us to interpret that ΛCDM-type cosmology can be reconstructed by Barrow HDE with the Nojiri-Odintsov cut-off in the present formulation that included dark matter. The asymptotic behaviour of density at late times has been observed under this formulation and hence we can interpret that even without a cosmological constant we can reproduce ΛCDM cosmology under the current framework. Hence, we can finally comment that although the current model is deviated from ΛCDM, with appropriate formulation the model can reproduce ΛCDM at late times. However, as the statefinder trajectories could not go beyond the ΛCDM fixed point, we can say that the current model cannot interpolate between dust and ΛCDM. We propose to carry out a similar viscous cosmology under the purview of modified theories of gravity in future with the background evolution as Barrow HDE. While concluding we would like to draw the attention of the readers to the previously published two works [22,23] by the authors of the present paper, where the inflationary cosmology was demonstrated through a scalar field model and a generalised version of HDE. In a similar manner we propose to investigate the slow roll parameters under the consideration of Barrow HDE with NO cut-off as the fluid responsible for the inflationary expansion.
