A while ago a proposal have been made regarding Klein Gordon and Maxwell Lagrangians for causal set theory. These Lagrangian densities are based on the statistical analysis of the behavior of field on a sample of points taken throughout some small region of spacetime. However, in order for that sample to be statistically reliable, a lower bound on the size of that region needs to be imposed. This results in unwanted contributions from higher order derivatives to the Lagrangian density, as well as non-trivial curvature effects on the latter. It turns out that both gravitational and non-gravitational effects end up being highly non-linear. In the previous papers we were focused on leading order terms, which allowed us to neglect these nonlinearities. We would now like to go to the next order and investigate them. In the current paper we will exclusively focus on the effects of higher order derivatives in the flat-space toy model. The gravitational effects will be studied in another paper which is currently in preparation. Both papers are restricted to bosonic fields, although the issue probably generalizes to fermions once Grassmann numbers are dealt with in appropriate manner.

In this paper we will define a Lagrangian for scalar and gauge fields on causal sets, based on the selection of an Alexandrov set in which the variations of appropriate expressions in terms of either the scalar field or the gauge field holonomies around suitable loops take on the least value. For these fields, we will find that the values of the variations of these expressions define Lagrangians in covariant form.
We investigate a systematic approach to include curvature corrections to the isometry algebra of flat space-time order-by-order in the curvature scale. The Poincare algebra is extended to a free Lie algebra, with generalised boosts and translations that no longer commute. The additional generators satisfy a level-ordering and encode the curvature corrections at that order. This eventually results in an infinite-dimensional algebra that we refer to as Poincare${}_infty$, and we show that it contains among others an (A)dS quotient. We discuss a non-linear realisation of this infinite-dimensional algebra, and construct a particle action based on it. The latter yields a geodesic equation that includes (A)dS curvature corrections at every order.
We use a deformed differential structure to obtain a curved metric by a deformation quantization of the flat space-time. In particular, by setting the deformation parameters to be equal to physical constants we obtain the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) model for inflation and a deformed version of the FRW space-time. By calculating classical Einstein-equations for the extended space-time we obtain non-trivial solutions. Moreover, in this framework we obtain the Moyal-Weyl, i.e. a constant non-commutative space-time, by a consistency condition.
Here we consider the entropy-corrected version of the new agegraphic dark energy model in the non-flat FRW universe. We derive the exact differential equation that determines the evolution of the entropy-corrected new agegraphic dark energy density parameter in the presence of interaction with dark matter. We also obtain the equation of state and deceleration parameters and present a necessary condition for the selected model to cross the phantom divide. Moreover, we reconstruct the potential and the dynamics of the phantom scalar field according to the evolutionary behavior of the interacting entropy-corrected new agegraphic model.
Authors of ref. [1], M.R. Setare and S. Shafei (JCAP 09 (2006) 011), studied the thermodynamics of a holographic dark energy model in a non-flat universe enclosed by the apparent horizon $R_A$ and the event horizon measured from the sphere of the horizon named $L$. In section 3 in ref. [1], Authors showed that for $R_A$ the generalized second law of thermodynamics is respected, while for $L$ it is satisfied for the special range of the deceleration parameter. Here we present that their calculations for $R_A$ should be revised. Also we show that their conclusion for $L$ is not true and the generalized second law is hold for the present time independently of the deceleration parameter. Also if we take into account the contribution of dark matter in the generalized second law which is absent in ref. [1], then the generalized second law for $L$ is violated for the present time.
