| contents | We investigate a unified dark-energy scenario based on the combined effects of Barrow entropy corrections and the QCD ghost mechanism, referred to as the BH--QCDGDE model. The dark-energy density is constructed in a generalized holographic form that incorporates both Barrow-deformed entropy corrections and low-energy QCD vacuum effects within a single framework. The cosmological dynamics are analyzed in a spatially flat Friedmann--Lema\^ıtre--Robertson--Walker background. The model exhibits a smooth transition from a decelerated matter-dominated era to a late-time accelerated phase without crossing the phantom divide, indicating a viable background evolution. An equivalent scalar-field description of the effective dark-energy sector is reconstructed and shown to admit a quintessence-like behavior. The thermodynamic viability is examined by testing the generalized second law at the apparent horizon, which is found to be satisfied throughout the parameter space. The classical stability of the model is further investigated through the squared speed of sound, revealing the role of model parameters in shaping stable cosmological regimes. Overall, the BH--QCDGDE framework provides a consistent and physically viable description of late-time cosmic acceleration. |
