Holographic f(T) gravity model

We try to study the corresponding relation between f(T) gravity and holographic dark energy (HDE). A kind of energy density from f(T) is introduced which has the same role as HDE density. A f(T) model according to the HDE model is calculated. We find out a torsion scalar T based on the scalar factor is assumed by Capoziello et al. (Phys. Lett. B 639:135, 2006). The effective torsion equation of state, deceleration parameter of the holographic f(T)-gravity model are calculated.     

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.     

Cosmological evolution of pilgrim dark energy

We study pilgrim dark energy model by taking IR cut-offs as particle and event horizons as well as conformal age of the universe. We derive evolution equations for fractional energy density and equation of state parameters for pilgrim dark energy. The phantom cosmic evolution is established in these scenarios which is well supported by the cosmological parameters such as deceleration parameter, statefinder parameters and phase space of ω _? and \(\omega'_{\vartheta}\) . We conclude that the consistent value of parameter μ is μ<0 in accordance with the current Planck and WMAP9 results.     

A novel early dark energy model

We present a theoretical study of an early dark energy (EDE) model. The equation of state ω(z) evolves during the thermal history in a framework of a Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker Universe, following an effective parametrization that is a function of redshift z. We explore the evolution of the system from the radiation domination era to the late times, allowing the EDE model to have a non-negligible contribution at high redshift (as opposed to the cosmological constant that only plays a role once the structure is formed) with a very little input to the Big Bang Nucleosynthesis, and to do so, the equation of state mimics the radiation behaviour, but being subdominant in terms of its energy density. At late times, the equation of state of the dark energy model asymptotically tends to the fiducial value of the De Sitter domination epoch, providing an explanation for the accelerated expansion of the Universe at late times, emulating the effect of the cosmological constant. The proposed model has three free parameters, that we constrain using SNIa luminosity distances, along with the CMB shift parameter and the deceleration parameter calculated at the time of dark energy - matter equality. With full knowledge of the best fit for our model, we calculate different observables and compare these predictions with the standardΛCDM model. Besides the general consent of the community with the cosmological constant, there is no fundamental reason to choose that particular candidate as dark energy. Here, we open the opportunity to consider a more dynamical model, that also accounts for the late accelerated expansion of the Universe.     

Holographic dark energy with time depend gravitational constant in the non-flat Ho?ava-Lifshitz cosmology

We study the holographic dark energy on the subject of Hořava-Lifshitz gravity with a time dependent gravitational constant G(t), in the non-flat space-time. We obtain the differential equation that specify the evolution of the dark energy density parameter based on varying gravitational constant. We find out a relation for the state parameter of the dark energy equation of state to low red-shifts which containing varying G corrections in the non-flat space-time.     

New Agegraphic Dark Energy model in chameleon Brans-Dicke cosmology for different forms of the scale factor

In this work, we study the New Agegraphic Dark Energy (NADE) model (which contains the conformal time η as infrared cut-off) in the framework of Brans-Dicke cosmology with chameleon scalar field which is non-minimally coupled to the matter field. Considering interacting Dark Energy and Dark Matter (DM), we calculate some relevant cosmological parameters, i.e. the equation of state (EoS) parameter, the deceleration parameter q and the evolution of the energy density parameter $\varOmega_{D}'$ for different forms of scale factors, i.e. the power-law, the emergent, the intermediate and the logamediate ones, which leads to different expressions of η.     

Cosmological evolution for dark energy models in f(T) gravity

In this paper, we investigate the behavior of equation of state parameter and energy density for dark energy in the framework of f(T) gravity. For this purpose, we use anisotropic LRS Bianchi type I universe model. The behavior of accelerating universe is discussed for some well-known f(T) models. It is found that the universe takes a transition between phantom and non-phantom phases for f(T) models except exponential and logarithmic models. We conclude that our results are relativity analogous to the results of FRW universe.     

Power-law and logarithmic entropy-corrected Ricci viscous dark energy and dynamics of scalar fields

In this work, I consider the logarithmic-corrected and the power-law corrected versions of the holographic dark energy (HDE) model in the non-flat FRW universe filled with a viscous Dark Energy (DE) interacting with Dark Matter (DM). I propose to replace the infra-red cut-off with the inverse of the Ricci scalar curvature R. I obtain the equation of state (EoS) parameter ω _Λ , the deceleration parameter q and the evolution of energy density parameter $\varOmega_{D}'$ in the presence of interaction between DE and DM for both corrections. I study the correspondence of the logarithmic entropy corrected Ricci Dark Dnergy (LECRDE) and power-law entropy corrected Ricci Dark Energy (PLECRDE) models with the the Modified Chaplygin Gas (MCG) and some scalar fields including tachyon, K-essence, dilaton and quintessence. I also make comparisons with previous results.     

Anisotropic universe and observational constraint on the dark energy models with the cosmological redshift drift

This study set out to examine the effect of anisotropy on the various dark energy models by using the observational data, including the Sandage-Loeb test, Strongly gravitationally lensing, observational Hubble data, and Baryon Acoustic Oscillations data. In particular, we consider three cases of dark energy models: the cosmological constant model, which is most favored by current observations, the wCDM model where dark energy is introduced with constant w equation of state parameter and in Chevalier-Polarski-Linder parametrization where ω is allowed to evolve with redshift. With an anisotropy framework, a maximum likelihood method to constrain the cosmological parameters was implemented. With an anisotropic universe, we also study the behavior of different cosmological parameters such as Hubble parameter, EoS parameter, and deceleration parameter of dark energy models mentioned. The results indicate that the Bianchi type I model for the dark energy models are consistent with the combined observational data.     

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.     

Quasi-Rip and Pseudo-Rip universes induced by the fluid inhomogeneous equation of state

We investigate specific models for a dark energy universe leading to Quasi-Rip and Pseudo-Rip cosmologies. In the Quasi-Rip model the equation of state parameter w is less than ?1 in the first stage, but becomes larger than ?1 in the second stage. In the Pseudo-Rip model the Hubble parameter tends to a constant value in the remote future, although w is always less than ?1. Conditions for the appearance of the Quasi-Rip and the Pseudo-Rip in terms of the parameters in the equation of state are determined. Analogies with the theory of viscous cosmology are discussed.     

Plane symmetric gravitational collapse and linear equation of state

This paper examines the gravitational collapse in plane symmetry with a perfect fluid using a linear equation of state p=kρ. We find a class of collapse models satisfying the Einstein field equations and also the regularity as well as energy conditions. For a given initial data, the outcome of the collapse turns out to be a black membrane or a naked singularity depending upon the equation of state parameter. We conclude that this parameter plays a crucial role in determining the final fate of the collapse.     

de Sitter expansion with anisotropic fluid in Bianchi type-I space-time

Some features of the Bianchi type-I universes in the presence of a fluid that wields an anisotropic equation of state (EoS) parameter are discussed in the context of general relativity. The models that exhibit de Sitter volumetric expansion due to the constant effective energy density (the sum of the energy density of the fluid and the anisotropy energy density) are of particular interest. We also introduce two locally rotationally symmetric models, which exhibit de Sitter volumetric expansion in the presence of a hypothetical fluid that has been obtained by minimally altering the conventional vacuum energy. In the first model, the directional EoS parameter on the x axis is assumed to be −1, while the ones on the other axes and the energy density of the fluid are allowed to be functions of time. In the second model, the energy density of the fluid is assumed to be constant, while the directional EoS parameters are allowed to be functions of time.     

Bianchi type-V universe with wet dark fluid

The Bianchi type-V universe filled with dark energy from a wet dark fluid has been considered. A new equation of state for the dark energy component of the universe has been used. It is modeled on the equation of state p=γ(ρ?ρ _? ) which can describe a liquid, for example water. The exact solutions to the corresponding field equations are obtained in quadrature form. The solution for constant deceleration parameter have been studied in detail for power-law and exponential forms both. The case $\gamma =\frac{1}{3}$ has been also analysed.     

The sign-changeable interaction between variable generalized Chaplygin gas and dark matter

In this paper, we study a cosmological model with the sign-changeable interaction between variable generalized Chaplygin gas (VGCG) and dark matter. The dynamical analysis indicates that there exists a stable scaling attractor, which can help to alleviate the coincidence problem. Furthermore, when the parameters of the model take some fixed values, the attractor corresponds to the phase w=?0.939 and the equation of state of VGCG approaches it from either w>?1 or w<?1 depending on the choice of its initial cosmic density parameter and the ratio of pressure to critical energy density. So, the phantom divide can be crossed. We find the interaction term Q can change its sign from Q<0 to Q>0 as the universe expands, which is different from the usual interaction. Also, we place constraints on the parameters from the point of view of dynamics.     

Cosmological parameters constraints from galaxy cluster mass function measurements in combination with other cosmological data

We present the cosmological parameters constraints obtained from the combination of galaxy cluster mass function measurements (Vikhlinin et al. 2009a, 2009b) with new cosmological data obtained during last three years: updated measurements of cosmic microwave background anisotropy with Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) observatory, and at smaller angular scales with South Pole Telescope (SPT), new Hubble constant measurements, baryon acoustic oscillations and supernovae Type Ia observations. New constraints on total neutrino mass ??m _?? and effective number of neutrino species are obtained. In models with free number of massive neutrinos the constraints on these parameters are notably less strong, and all considered cosmological data are consistent with non-zero total neutrino mass ??m _?? ?? 0.4 eV and larger than standard effective number of neutrino species, N _eff ?? 4. These constraints are compared to the results of neutrino oscillations searches at short baselines. The updated dark energy equation of state parameter constraints are presented. We show that taking in account systematic uncertanties, current cluster mass funstion data provide similarly powerful constraints on dark energy equation of state, as compared to the constraints from supernovae Type Ia observations.     

Parametrization of Born-Infeld type phantom dark energy model

Applying the parametrization of dark energy density, we can construct directly independent-model potentials. In Born-Infeld type phantom dark energy model, we consider four special parametrization equation of state parameter. The evolutive behavior of dark energy density with respect to red-shift z, potentials with respect to φ and z are shown mathematically. Moreover, we investigate the effect of parameter η upon the evolution of the constructed potential with respect to z. These results show that the evolutive behavior of constructed Born-Infeld type dark energy model is quite different from those of the other models.     

Interaction between viscous varying modified cosmic Chaplygin gas and Tachyonic fluid

In this paper we study the interaction between the general form of viscous varying modified cosmic Chaplygin gas and the Tachyon fluid in the framework of Einstein gravity. We want to reconstruct the Tachyon potential and total equation of state parameter graphically by using numerical methods. In the presence of deceleration parameter, the interaction between components becomes sign changeable to explain different evolutionary eras in the universe. We review the potential and total equation of state parameter in Emergent, Intermediate and Logamediate scenarios of scale factor numerically. Analysis of total equation of state parameter show that, ω _tot <?1 and ω _tot >?1 imply the phantom-like and quintessence-like behaviors respectively. we have checked the effects of cosmic and viscosity elements on the interaction process. Stability is checked in all the models by the squared velocity of sound.
