Abstract

In this paper, we examine the validity of the generalized second law of thermodynamics of the universe bounded by the event horizon in brane-world gravity. Here we consider a homogeneous and isotropic model of the universe in the one case where it is filled with a perfect fluid and in another case where a holographic dark energy model of the universe has been considered.
