The generalized Szekeres family of solution for quasi-spherical space–time of higher dimensions are obtained in the scalar tensor theory of gravitation. Brans–Dicke field equations expressed in Dicke's revised units are exhaustively solved for all the subfamilies of the said family. A particular group of solutions may also be interpreted as due to the presence of the so-called C-field of Hoyle and Narlikar and for a chosen sign of the coupling parameter. The models show either expansion from a big bang type of singularity or a collapse with the turning point at a lower bound. There is one particular case which starts from the big bang, reaches a maximum and collapses with the in course of time to a crunch.

In this paper, we have obtained field equations of Sáez–Ballester (Phys. Lett. A, 113, 467 (1986)) scalar–tensor theory in the presence of two minimally interacting fields; matter and holographic dark energy components in the space–time described by a spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi type VI0 space–time. We have used the hybrid expansion law, proposed by Akarsu et al. (JCAP, 01, 022 (2014)), to obtain a determinate solution of the field equations. This solution represents a minimally interacting Bianchi type VI0 Sáez–Ballester universe. Physical and kinematical properties of the universe are also studied.

Locally rotationally symmetric (LRS) Bianchi type-I dark energy cosmological model with variable equation of state (EoS) parameter in (Nordtvedt 1970) general scalar tensor theory of gravitation with the help of a special case proposed by (Schwinger 1970) is obtained. It is observed that these anisotropic and isotropic dark energy cosmological models always represent an accelerated universe and are consistent with the recent observations of type-Ia supernovae. Some important features of the models, thus obtained, have been discussed.
