Correspondence Between Einstein-Aether Gravity and Scalar Field Dark Energies

Here we briefly discuss the Galileon gravity theory and modified Friedmann equations. By considering new holographic dark energy (NHDE) in the framework of Galileon gravity, we found the energy density, pressure, equation of state and the deceleration parameter in terms of the scale factor. Subsequently, we study the correspondence between the NHDE in the framework of Galileon gravity with other dark energies like quintessence, k-essence, tachyon, dilaton, hessence and DBI-essence dark energies and construct the scalar field and corresponding scalar potentials which describe the dynamics of the scalar fields graphically. All the dark energy models, the scalar field and the potential decrease due to the evolution of the universe.

Here, we investigate the cosmological implications of Holographic Dark Energy (HDE) in the DGP braneworld model of the universe. Taking HDE in DGP braneworld, we investigate the model of non-interacting dark energy and derive its equation of state. Subsequently, we study the correspondence between k-essence, tachyon, dilaton, hessence and DBI-essence dark energy with the non-interacting HDE in a flat DGP braneworld and reconstruct the corresponding scalar potentials which describe the dynamics of the scalar fields. Also we study the correspondence between above mentioned scalar potentials and effective dark energy coming from DGP braneworld in the absence of HDE and in this situation, the potentials are reconstructed.

We analyze the universe as a thermodynamic system, homogeneously filled up by exotic matters popularly named as dark energies. Different dark energy models are chosen. We start with the equation of continuity and derive the time and scale factor relations for different EoSs of different dark energy models. To do the time-scale factor relation analysis, nature of dependences on different dark energy modeling parameters have been studied. For this, the help of different plots are used. In general, different dark energies show different properties while occurrences of future singularities are considered. Those properties can be supported by the graphical analysis of their cosmic time-scale factor studies.

We have considered the flat FRW model of the universe which is filled with only dark energy. The general descriptions of first and second laws of thermodynamics are investigated on the apparent horizon and event horizon of the universe. We have assumed the equation of state of three different types of dark energy models. We have examined the validity of first and second laws of thermodynamics on apparent and event horizons for these dark energies. For these dark energy models, it has been found that on the apparent horizon, first and second laws are always valid. On the event horizon, the laws are break down for dark energy models 1 and 2. For model 3, first law cannot be satisfied on the event horizon, but second law may be satisfied at the late stage of the evolution of the universe and so the validity of second law on the event horizon depends on the values of the parameters only.

This article investigates the relationship between the holographic principle and the laws of thermodynamics in explaining the late-time acceleration of the universe. First, we explore the possibilities of generating the standard holographic dark energy (SHDE) from the laws of horizon thermodynamics. Except for entropies that follow an exponent stretched area law, unless we redefine the horizon temperature, we found it challenging to construct a one-to-one correspondence between the dark energies defined by the holographic principle and the laws of thermodynamics. Secondly, in SHDE models, unless we invoke some phenomenological interactions, it is impossible to explain the late-time cosmic acceleration with the Hubble horizon as the IR cutoff. On the other hand, it is possible to induce dark energy as an integration constant using the laws of thermodynamics on the Hubble horizon. These motivated us to explore a feasible way to invoke the holographic principle from the laws of horizon thermodynamics. We show that the additional terms that appear in the modified Friedmann equations on using entropies other than the Bekenstein–Hawking entropy in the first law of thermodynamics can behave like a dynamic holographic dark energy (HDE). We study the features of such an HDE with Rényi entropy as the choice without considering any non-standard interactions. Interestingly, the resulting form of dark energy reduces to the standard cosmological constant when Rényi entropy reduces to the Bekenstein–Hawking entropy. By examining different parameters, we affirm the validity of our approach to dark energy, which respects both holographic principle and thermodynamics.

In recent years, many studies have been conducted to reconstruct the physical properties of scalar fields by establishing a connection between some energy densities and a scalar field of dark energies. In this paper, using the extended five-dimensional (5D) Kaluza–Klein model, we establish a correspondence among modified holographic dark energy and the tachyon, K-essence and dilaton scalar-field models. We also graphically illustrate the evolution of the equation-of-state parameter versus time.

In this work, we establish a correspondence between the interacting holographic, new agegraphic dark energy and generalized Chaplygin gas model in Bianchi type I universe. Then, we reconstruct the potential of the scalar field which describes the generalized Chaplygin cosmology. Cosmological solutions are obtained when the kinetic energy of the phantom field is of the order of the anisotropy and dominates over the potential energy of the field. We investigate observational constraints on the generalized Chaplygin gas, holographic and new agegraphic dark energy models as the unification of dark matter and dark energy, by using the latest observational data. To do this we focus on observational determinations of the expansion history H(z) . It is shown that the HDE model is better than the NADE and generalized Chaplygin gas models in an anisotropic universe. Then, we calculate the evolution of density perturbations in the linear regime for three models of dark energy and compare with the results of the $ \Lambda$ CDM model. Finally, the analysis shows that the increase in anisotropy leads to more correspondence between the dark energy scalar field model and observational data.

In this work, we have considered that the universe is filled with tachyon and hessence (or hantom) dark energies. Subsequently we have investigated the interactions between tachyon and hessence (hantom) dark energies and calculated the potentials considering the power law form of the scale factor. It has been revealed that the tachyonic potential always decreases and hessence (or hantom) potential increases with corresponding fields. Furthermore, we have considered a correspondence between the hessence (or hantom) dark energy density and variable modified Chaplygin gas energy density. From this, we have found the expressions of the arbitrary positive constants B 0 and C of variable modified Chaplygin gas.

The quest of deciphering the true nature of dark energy has proven to be one of the most exciting in recent times in cosmology. Various ideas have been put forward in this regard besides the usual cosmological constant approach, ranging from scalar field based models like Quintessence and Phantom dark energy to various modified gravity approaches as well. A very interesting idea then is to consider scalar field dark energy models in quantum gravitationally corrected cosmologies with the RS-II Braneworld being one of the most well known in this regard. So in this work, we consider RS-II Braneworld based scalar field dark energy models and try to look out for the existence of finite time singularities in these regimes both through a dynamical system perspective, for which we employ the Goriely–Hyde singularity analysis method, and a physical perspective. Our approach is general in the sense that it is not limited to any particular class of potentials or for any constrained parameter region for the brane tension and is valid for both Quintessence and phantom dark energy regimes. We firstly show through Goriely–Hyde procedure that finite time singularities can exist in these models for a limited set of initial conditions and that this result would hold irrespective of any consideration given to the swampland dS conjecture. We then discuss the physical nature of the singularities that can occur in this regime, where we use a well motivated ansatz for the Hubble parameter and show that these models of dark energy can allow for weak singularities like those of Type III and Type IV and can also allow for strong singularities like the Big Rip (Type I).

Many dark energy models fail to pass the cosmic age test because of the old quasar APM 08279+5255 at redshift $z=3.91$, the $\Lambda$CDM model and holographic dark energy models being no exception. In this paper, we focus on the topic of age problem in the new agegraphic dark energy (NADE) model. We determine the age of the universe in the NADE model by fitting the observational data, including type Ia supernovae (SNIa), baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) and the cosmic microwave background (CMB). We find that the NADE model also faces the challenge of the age problem caused by the old quasar APM 08279+5255. In order to overcome such a difficulty, we consider the possible interaction between dark energy and dark matter. We show that this quasar can be successfully accommodated in the interacting new agegraphic dark energy (INADE) model at the $2\sigma$ level under the current observational constraints.

In the usual Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz cosmological models, the scalar field is responsible for dark matter. Using an additional scalar field, Saridakis \cite{sari} has formulated Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz cosmology with an effective dark energy sector. In the paper \cite{sari} the scalar fields do not interact with each other, here we extend this work to the interacting case, where matter scalar field $\phi$ interact with dark energy scalar field $\sigma$. We will show that in contrast with \cite{sari}, where $\sigma$-filed is absent, we can obtain $w_d ^{\rm eff}<-1$, that is we result to an effective dark energy presenting phantom behaviour. This behaviour is pure effect of the interaction.

Dark matter and dark energy are used as two important concepts in cosmology to explain some of the observed phenomena in the universe. Dark matter is one of the most dominant constituents of the Universe, and it influences the structural formation of the Universe through gravity, including the formation and evolution of galaxies, clusters, and the large-scale structure of the Universe. Dark energy is believed to be one of the causes of the accelerated expansion of the Universe, and its presence explains the observed phenomenon of the accelerating rate of expansion of the Universe. Although their existence has not been directly observed, people understand through the study of the structure and evolution of the universe that they play an important role in the universe. This paper first introduces the background knowledge of dark matter and its related properties and explains the reasons why three types of models, namely WIMP, axion, and sterile neutrino, are candidates for dark matter in the light of existing observations. The paper then discusses the relevant properties of dark energy and analyses the mainstream dark energy models. For the cosmological constant mode, the fine-tuning problem and cosmic coincidence problem it faces are analysed in detail. The evolution of the dark energy equation of state from the past &gt;-1 to the present &lt;-1 is then explained, and this is used to introduce the scalar field model involving dynamic, the Chaplygin gas model, the holographic dark energy model, and the interacting dark energy model.

A recently investigated tachyonic scalar field dark energy dominated universe exhibits a bivalent future: depending on initial parameters can run either into a de Sitter exponential expansion or into a traversable future soft singularity followed by a contraction phase. We also include in the model (i) a tiny amount of radiation, (ii) baryonic matter (Ωbh2 = 0.022161, where the Hubble constant is fixed as h = 0.706) and (iii) cold dark matter (CDM). Out of a variety of six types of evolutions arising in a more subtle classification, we identify two in which in the past the scalar field effectively degenerates into a dust (its pressure drops to an insignificantly low negative value). These are the evolutions of type IIb converging to de Sitter and type III hitting the future soft singularity. We confront these background evolutions with various cosmological tests, including the supernova type Ia Union 2.1 data, baryon acoustic oscillation distance ratios, Hubble parameter-redshift relation and the cosmic microwave background (CMB) acoustic scale. We determine a subset of the evolutions of both types which at 1σ confidence level are consistent with all of these cosmological tests. At perturbative level we derive the CMB temperature power spectrum to find the best agreement with the Planck data for ΩCDM = 0.22. The fit is as good as for the ΛCDM model at high multipoles, but the power remains slightly overestimated at low multipoles, for both types of evolutions. The rest of the CDM is effectively generated by the tachyonic field, which in this sense acts as a combined dark energy and dark matter model.

The problem of the cosmic coincidence is a longstanding puzzle. This conundrum may be solved by introducing a coupling between the two dark sectors. In this Letter, we study two cases of the coupled quintessence scenario. (a) Assume that the mass of dark matter particles depends exponentially on the scalar field associated to dark energy and meanwhile the scalar field evolves in an exponential potential; (b) Assume that the mass of dark matter particles depends on a power law function of the scalar field and meanwhile the scalar field evolves in a power law potential. Since the dynamics of this system is dominated by an attractor solution, the mass of dark matter particles is forced to change with time as to ensure that the ratio between the energy densities of dark matter and dark energy becomes a constant at late times, and one thus solve the cosmic coincidence problem naturally. We perform a statefinder diagnostic to both cases of this coupled quintessence scenario. It is shown that the evolving trajectory of this scenario in the s–r diagram is quite different from those of other dark energy models.

The gravitational wave (GW) event GW170817 from a binary neutron star merger together with the electromagnetic counterpart showed that the speed of GWs [Formula: see text] is very close to that of light for the redshift [Formula: see text]. This places tight constraints on dark energy models constructed in the framework of modified gravitational theories. We review models of the late-time cosmic acceleration in scalar–tensor theories with second-order equations of motion (dubbed Horndeski theories) by paying particular attention to the evolution of dark energy equation of state and observables relevant to the cosmic growth history. We provide a gauge-ready formulation of scalar perturbations in full Horndeski theories and estimate observables associated with the evolution of large-scale structures, cosmic microwave background and weak lensing by employing a so-called quasi-static approximation for the modes deep inside the sound horizon. In light of the recent observational bound of [Formula: see text], we also classify surviving dark energy models into four classes depending on different structure-formation patterns and discuss how they can be observationally distinguished from each other. In particular, the nonminimally coupled theories in which the scalar field [Formula: see text] has a coupling with the Ricci scalar [Formula: see text] of the form [Formula: see text], including [Formula: see text] gravity, can be tightly constrained not only from the cosmic expansion and growth histories but also from the variation of screened gravitational couplings. The cross-correlation of integrated Sachs–Wolfe signal with galaxy distributions can be a key observable for placing bounds on the relative ratio of cubic Galileon density to total dark energy density. The dawn of GW astronomy will open up a new window to constrain nonminimally coupled theories further by the modified luminosity distance of tensor perturbations.
