Of course the entropic force (gravity) would change depending on how much mass is inside an area. Particularly interesting is a screen around the horizon of a black hole of mass M, then the pressure is equal to PBH = dS/dR T/A = 4 pi M /(256 pi2 M3) = 1/(64 pi M2) Which should be expected...

I also thought about that, and basically it is the only sensible solution, but wasn't able to work out the details. Some remarks I think relevant: dS/dr ~ R (with R radius screen, this follows unambigious from holographic principle) P = F/A ~ T / R (since dS/dr ~ R and A ~ R2) It is quite...

I agree with Marcus that the new article is very much worth investigating and that Verlinde's idea may be a much more elegant way to explain dark energy. But I also think the article is not very clear, at least I have two questions: He claims that the pressure in eq (17) decreases if the...
