AbstractWe consider a dark energy scenario driven by a scalar field $$\phi $$ ϕ with a pseudo-Nambu–Goldstone boson (pNGB) type potential $$V(\phi )=\mu ^4 \left( 1+ \mathrm{cos}(\phi /f) \right) $$ V ( ϕ ) = μ 4 1 + cos ( ϕ / f ) . The pNGB originates out of breaking of spontaneous symmetry at a scale f close to Planck mass $$M_\mathrm{{pl}}$$ M pl . We consider two cases namely the quintessence dark energy model with pNGB potential and the other, where the standard pNGB action is modified by the terms related to Slotheon cosmology. We demonstrate that for this pNGB potential, high-f problem is better addressed when the interaction between dark matter and dark energy is taken into account and that Slotheon dark energy scenario works even better over quintessence in this respect. To this end, a mass limit for dark matter is also estimated.

We perform in this paper a statefinder diagnostic to a dark energy model with two scalar fields, called "quintom," where one of the scalar fields has a canonical kinetic energy term and the other has a negative one. Several kinds of potentials are discussed. Our results show that the statefinder diagnostic can differentiate quintom model with other dark energy models.

We propose a novel coupled dark energy model which is assumed to occur as aq-deformed scalar field and investigate whether it will provide an expanding universe phase. We consider theq-deformed dark energy as coupled to dark matter inhomogeneities. We perform the phase-space analysis of the model by numerical methods and find the late-time accelerated attractor solutions. The attractor solutions imply that the coupledq-deformed dark energy model is consistent with the conventional dark energy models satisfying an acceleration phase of universe. At the end, we compare the cosmological parameters of deformed and standard dark energy models and interpret the implications.

It is found that the origin agegraphic dark energy tracks the matter in the matter-dominated epoch and then the subsequent dark-energy-dominated epoch becomes impossible. It is argued that the difficulty can be removed when the interaction between the agegraphic dark energy and dark matter is considered. In the note, by discussing three different interacting models, we find that the difficulty still stands even in the interacting models. Furthermore, we find that in the interacting models, there exists the other serious inconsistence that the existence of the radiation/matter-dominated epoch contradicts the ability of agegraphic dark energy in driving the accelerated expansion. The contradiction can be avoided in one of the three models if some constraints on the parameters hold.

Several independent cosmological tests have shown evidences that the energy density of the universe is dominated by a dark energy component, which causes the present accelerated expansion. The large scale structure formation can be used to probe dark energy models, and the mass function of dark matter haloes is one of the best statistical tools to perform this study. We present here a statistical analysis of mass functions of galaxies under a homogeneous dark energy model, proposed in the work of Percival (2005), using an observational flux-limited X-ray cluster survey, and CMB data from WMAP. We compare, in our analysis, the standard Press–Schechter (PS) approach (where a Gaussian distribution is used to describe the primordial density fluctuation field of the mass function), and the PL (power–law) mass function (where we apply a non-extensive q-statistical distribution to the primordial density field). We conclude that the PS mass function cannot explain at the same time the X-ray and the CMB data (even at 99% confidence level), and the PS best fit dark energy equation of state parameter is ω = -0.58, which is distant from the cosmological constant case. The PL mass function provides better fits to the HIFLUGCS X-ray galaxy data and the CMB data; we also note that the ω parameter is very sensible to modifications in the PL free parameter, q, suggesting that the PL mass function could be a powerful tool to constrain dark energy models.

Recently, Tsallis, Rényi, and Sharma-Mittal entropies have widely been used to study the gravitational and cosmological setups. We consider a flat FRW universe with linear interaction between dark energy and dark matter. We discuss the dark energy models using Tsallis, Rényi, and Sharma-Mittal entropies in the framework of Chern-Simons modified gravity. We explore various cosmological parameters (equation of state parameter, squared sound of speed ) and cosmological plane (ωd-ωd′, where ωd′ is the evolutionary equation of state parameter). It is observed that the equation of state parameter gives quintessence-like nature of the universe in most of the cases. Also, the squared speed of sound shows stability of Tsallis and Rényi dark energy model but unstable behavior for Sharma-Mittal dark energy model. The ωd-ωd′ plane represents the thawing region for all dark energy models.

We investigate cosmological features of the variable Chaplygin gas (VCG) describing a unified dark matter–energy scenario in a universe governed by the five dimensional (5D) Kaluza–Klein (KK) gravity. In such a proposal, the VCG evolves from the dust-like phase to the phantom or the quintessence phases. It is concluded that the background evolution for the KK-type VCG definition is equivalent to that for the dark energy interacting with the dark matter. Next, after performing neo-classical tests, we calculated the proper, luminosity, and angular diameter distances. Additionally, we construct a connection between the VCG in the KK universe and a homogenous minimally coupled scalar field by introducing its self-interacting potential and also we confirm the stability of the KK-type VCG model by making use of thermodynamics. Moreover, we use data from type Ia supernova, observational H(z) dataset and Planck-2015 results to place constraints on the model parameters. Subsequently, according to the best-fit values of the model parameters we analyze our results numerically.
