Anisotropic cosmological models in f(R,T) gravity according to holographic and new agegraphic dark energy

The paper deals with a spatially homogeneous and anisotropic universe filled with perfect fluid and dark energy components. We consider the f(R,T) theory according to holographic and new agegraphic dark energy in the Bianchi type I universe. In this study, we concentrate on two particular models of f(R,T) gravity namely, R+2f(T) and f(R)+λT. We conclude that the derived f(R,T) models can represent phantom or quintessence regimes of the universe.     

Cosmology of f(T) gravity in a holographic dark energy and nonisotropic background

It is shown that the acceleration of the universe can be understood by considering a f(T) gravity models. Modified teleparallel gravity theory with the torsion scalar has recently gained a lot of attention as a possible explanation of dark energy. For these f(T) gravity models, a variant of the accelerating cosmology reconstruction program is developed. We consider spatially homogenous and anisotropic Bianchi type I universe in the context of f(T) gravity. The de Sitter, power-law and general exponential solutions are assumed for the scale factor in each spatial direction and the corresponding cosmological models are reconstructed. We reconstruct f(T) theories from two different holographic dark energy models in different time durations. For the holographic dark energy model, the dark energy dominated era with new setting up is chosen for reconstruction, and the Ricci dark energy model, radiation, matter and dark energy dominated time durations are all investigated. Finally we have obtained a modified gravity action consistent with the holographic dark energy scenario.     

Bulk viscous cosmological models in f(R,T) theory of gravity

We have constructed Locally Rotationally Symmetric Bianchi type I (LRSBI) cosmological models in the f(R,T) theory of gravity when the source of gravitation is the bulk viscous fluid. The models are constructed for f(R,T)=R+2f(T) and f(R,T)=f ₁(R)+f ₂(T). We found that in the first case the model degenerates into effective stiff fluid model of the universe. In the second case we obtained degenerate effective stiff fluid model as well as general bulk viscous models of the universe. Some physical and kinematical properties of the models are also discussed.     

Cosmology from induced matter model applied to 5D f(R,T) theory

It is well known that the universe is undergoing a phase of accelerated expansion. Plenty of models have already been created with the purpose of describing what causes this non-expected cosmic feature. Among them, one could quote the extradimensional and the f(R,T) gravity models. In this work, in the scope of unifying Kaluza-Klein extradimensional model with f(R,T) gravity, cosmological solutions for density and pressure of the universe are obtained from the induced matter model application. Particular solutions for vacuum quantum energy and radiation are also shown.     

Generalized teleparallel gravity via some scalar field dark energy models

We consider generalized teleparallel gravity in the flat FRW universe with a viable power-law f(T) model. We construct its equation of state and deceleration parameters which give accelerated expansion of the universe in quintessence era for the obtained scale factor. Further, we develop correspondence of f(T) model with scalar field models such as, quintessence, tachyon, K-essence and dilaton. The dynamics of scalar field as well as scalar potential of these models indicate the expansion of the universe with acceleration in the f(T) gravity scenario.     

The generalized second law of thermodynamics for the interacting in f(T) gravity

We study the validity of the generalized second law (GSL) of gravitational thermodynamics in a non-flat FRW universe containing the interacting in f(T) gravity. We consider that the boundary of the universe to be confined by the dynamical apparent horizon in FRW universe. In general, we discuss the effective equation of state, deceleration parameter and GLS in this framewok. Also, we find that the interacting-term Q modifies these quantities and in particular, the evolution of the total entropy, results in an increases on the GLS of thermodynamic, by a factor $4\pi R_{A}^{3} Q/3$ . By using a viable f(T) gravity with an exponential dependence on the torsion, we develop a model where the interaction term is related to the total energy density of matter. Here, we find that a crossing of phantom divide line is possible for the interacting-f(T) model.     

Reconstruction of f(R), f(T) and f(\mathcal{G}) models inspired by variable deceleration parameter

We study an special law for the deceleration parameter, recently proposed by Akarsu and Dereli, in the context of f(R), f(T) and $f(\mathcal{G})$ theories of modified gravity. This law covers the law of Berman for obtaining exact cosmological models to account for the current acceleration of the universe, and also gives the opportunity to generalize many of the dark energy models having better consistency with the cosmological observations. Our aim is to reconstruct the f(R), f(T) and $f(\mathcal{G})$ models inspired by this law of variable deceleration parameter. Such models may then exhibit better consistency with the cosmological observations.     

Nonlinear electrodynamics in f(T) gravity and generalized second law of thermodynamics

In this paper, we study the nonlinear electrodynamics in the framework of f(T) gravity for FRW universe along with dust matter, magnetic and torsion contributions. We evaluate the equation of state and deceleration parameters to explore the accelerated expansion of the universe. The validity of generalized second law of thermodynamics for Hubble and event horizons is also investigated in this scenario. For this purpose, we assume polelike and power-law forms of scale factor and construct f(T) models. The graphical behavior of the cosmological parameters versus smaller values of redshift z represent the accelerated expansion of the universe. It turns out that the generalized second law of thermodynamics holds for all values of z with Hubble and event horizons in polelike scale factor whereas for power-law form, it holds in a specific range of z for both horizons.     

The study of Gödel type solutions in f(R, ϕ) gravity

The aim of this paper is to study the Gödel type universe in modified f(R, ϕ) theory of gravity, where R stands for Ricci scalar and ϕ be the scalar potential. We investigate the modified field equations by using anisotropic and perfect fluid distributions. In particular, we consider two proposed models with some fixed values of parameters and investigate the exact solutions. The behaviour of energy conditions can be seen by a detailed graphical analysis. Furthermore, Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equation has been studied for both models in this theory. We have also discussed some exact solutions using perfect fluid. It is concluded that f(R, ϕ) theory of gravity support the phenomenon of cosmic expansion of the universe through Gödel type universe for both models.     

Reconstruction of f(R,T) gravity in anisotropic cosmological models of accelerating universe

In this paper, we search the existence of Bianchi type I cosmological model in f(R,T) gravity, where the gravitational Lagrangian is given by an arbitrary function of the Ricci scalar R and of the trace of the stress-energy tensor T. We obtain the gravitational field equations in the metric formalism, and reconstruct the corresponding f(R,T) functions. Attention is attached to the special case, f(R,T)=f ₁(R)+f ₂(T) and two examples are assumed for this model. In the first example, we consider the unification of matter dominated and accelerated phases with f(R) gravity in anisotropic universe, and in the second instance, model of f(R,T) gravity with transition of matter dominated phase to the acceleration phase is obtained. In both cases, f(R,T) is proportional to a power of R with exponents depending on the input parameters.     

Pilgrim dark energy in f(T,T G ) cosmology

We work on the reconstruction scenario of pilgrim dark energy (PDE) in f(T,T _G ). In PDE model it is assumed that a repulsive force that is accelerating the Universe is phantom type with (w _DE f(T,T _G ) models and correspondingly evaluate equation of state parameter for various choices of scale factor. Also, we assume polynomial form of f(T,T _G ) in terms of cosmic time and reconstruct H and w _DE in this manner. Through discussion, it is concluded that PDE shows aggressive phantom-like behavior for s=?2 in f(T,T _G ) gravity.     

Generalized second law of thermodynamics in QCD ghost f(G) gravity

Considering power-law for of scale factor in a flat FRW universe we reported a reconstruction scheme for f(G) gravity based on QCD ghost dark energy. We reconstructed the effective equation of state parameter and observed “quintessence” behavior of the equation of state parameter. Furthermore, considering dynamical apparent horizon as the enveloping horizon of the universe we have observed that the generalized second law of thermodynamics is valid for this reconstructed f(G) gravity.     

Evolution of the universe in inverse and lnf(R) gravity

Evolution of the universe is discussed in the framework of f(R) theory of gravity. The deceleration parameter is used to interpret various phases of the universe. We investigate the future evolution of the flat FRW universe by using observationally viable f(R) models. A numerical technique is applied to solve the evolution equation in terms of Hubble parameter which is used to explore late time acceleration of the universe. Some novel and interesting results based on the choice of coupling parameters in gravitational action are obtained. We can conclude that the considered f(R) models imply unification of matter dominated epoch with present accelerating phase of the universe.     

Effective dark energy models and dark energy models with bounce in frames of F(T) gravity

Various cosmological models in frames of F(T) gravity are considered. The general scheme of constructing effective dark energy models with various evolution is presented. It is showed that these models in principle are compatible with ΛCDM model. The dynamics of universe governed by F(T) gravity can mimics ΛCDM evolution in past but declines from it in a future. We also construct some dark energy models with the “real” (non-effective) equation-of-state parameter w such that w≤?1. It is showed that in F(T) gravity the Universe filled phantom field not necessarily ends its existence in singularity. There are two possible mechanisms permitting the final singularity. Firstly due to the nonlinear dependence between energy density and H ² (H is the Hubble parameter) the universe can expands not so fast as in the general relativity and in fact Little Rip regime take place instead Big Rip. We also considered the models with possible bounce in future. In these models the universe expansion can mimics the dynamics with future singularity but due to bounce in future universe begin contracts.     

Behaviour of physical parameters in extended gravity with hyperbolic function

In this paper, we have constructed the cosmological model of the universe in f(R, T) theory of gravity in a Bianchi type \(\mathrm{VI}_h\) universe for the functional f(R, T) in the form \(f(R,T)=\mu R+\mu T\), where R and T are respectively Ricci scalar and trace of energy momentum tensor and \(\mu \) is a constant. We have made use of the hyperbolic scale factor to find the physical parameters and metric potentials defined in the space-time. The physical parameters are constrained from different representative values to build up a realistic cosmological model aligned with the observational behaviour. The state finder diagnostic pair is found to be in the acceptable range. The energy conditions of the model are also studied.     

Cosmic acceleration and phantom crossing in f(T)-gravity

In this paper, we propose two new models in f(T) gravity to realize universe acceleration and phantom crossing due to dark torsion in the formalism. The model parameters are constrained and the observational test are discussed. The best fit results favors an accelerating universe with possible phantom crossing in the near past or future followed respectively by matter and radiation dominated era.     

Energy conditions for Bianchi type I universe in f(G) gravity

In this paper, we discuss energy conditions in modified Gauss-Bonnet gravity for locally rotationally symmetric Bianchi type I universe model with perfect fluid. The matter contents are constructed to discuss the energy conditions bounds. We take two specific f(G) models along with present day values of Hubble, deceleration, jerk and snap parameters. It is found that weak and null energy conditions are satisfied while strong energy conditions are violated for both models which represents the accelerated expansion of the universe.     

Existence of wormhole solutions and energy conditions in <Emphasis Type="Italic">f</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">R</Emphasis>, <Emphasis Type="Italic">T</Emphasis>) gravity

This paper is devoted to investigate the spherically symmetric wormhole models in f(R, T) gravity, where T and R are trace of stress energy tensor and the Ricci scalar, respectively. In this context, we discuss three distinct cases of fluid distributions viz, anisotropic, barotropic and isotropic matter contents. After considering the exponential f(R, T) model, the behavior of energy conditions are analyzed that will help us to explore the general conditions for wormhole geometries in this gravity. It is inferred that the usual matter in the throat could obey the energy conditions but the gravitational field emerging from higher order terms of modified gravity favor the existence of the non-standard geometries of wormholes. The stability as well as the existence of wormholes are also analyzed in this theory.
