We use effective field theory (EFT) formalism to forecast the constraint on Horndeski class of dark energy models with future supernova and galaxy surveys. Previously, Gleyzes et al. computed unmarginalized constraints (68% CL error [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text]) on EFT dark energy parameters by fixing all other parameters. We extend the previous work by allowing all cosmological parameters and nuisance parameters to vary and marginalize over them. We find that (i) the constraints on EFT dark energy parameters are typically worsen by a factor of few after marginalization, and (ii) the constraint on the dark energy equation-of-state [Formula: see text] is not significantly affected by the inclusion of EFT dark energy parameters.

Constraining the dark energy equation of state, [Formula: see text], is one of the main issues of current and future cosmological surveys. In practice, this requires making assumptions about the evolution of [Formula: see text] with redshift [Formula: see text], which can be manifested in a choice of a specific parametric form where the number of cosmological parameters play an important role in the observed cosmic acceleration. Since any attempt to constrain the EoS requires some prior fixing in one form or the other, settling a method to constrain cosmological parameters is of great importance. In this paper, we provide a straightforward approach to show how cosmological tests can be improved via a parametric methodology based on cosmography. Using Supernovae Type IA samplers, we show how by performing a statistical analysis of a specific dark energy parametrization can give directly the cosmographic parameters values.

Abstract In the near future, the redshift drift observations in optical and radio bands will provide precise measurements on H(z) covering the redshift ranges of 2<z<5 and 0<z<0.3. In addition, gravitational wave (GW) standard siren observations could make measurements on the dipole anisotropy of luminosity distance, which will also provide the H(z) measurements in the redshift range of 0<z<3. In this work, we propose a multi-messenger and multi-wavelength observational strategy to measure H(z) based on the three next-generation projects, E-ELT, SKA, and DECIGO, and we wish to see whether the future H(z) measurements could provide tight constraints on dark-energy parameters. The dark energy models we consider include ΛCDM, wCDM, CPL, HDE, and IΛCDM models. It is found that E-ELT, SKA1, and DECIGO are highly complementary in constraining dark energy models. Although any one of these three data sets can only give rather weak constraints on each model we consider, the combination of them could significantly break the parameter degeneracies and give much tighter constraints on almost all the cosmological parameters. Moreover, we find that the combination of E-ELT, SKA1, DECIGO, and CMB could further improve the constraints on dark energy parameters, e.g., σ(w 0)=0.024 and σ(w a)=0.17 in the CPL model, which means that these three promising probes will play a key role in helping reveal the nature of dark energy.

We consider a model in which the neutrino is kinetically coupled to a scalar field and study its implications for environmentally dependent neutrino velocities. Following the usual effective field theory logic, this coupling is expected to arise in neutrino dark energy models. It leads to a Lorentz violation in the neutrino sector. The coupling of the scalar field to the stress tensor of the Earth yields terrestrial neutrino dispersion relations distinct from those in interstellar space.

In the present article, we investigate the physical acceptability of the spatially homogeneous and isotropic Friedmann–Lemâitre–Robertson–Walker line element filled with two fluids, with the first being pressureless matter and the second being different types of holographic dark energy. This geometric and material content is considered within the gravitational field equations of the f(T,B) (where T is the torsion scalar and the B is the boundary term) gravity in Hubble’s cut-off. The cosmological parameters, such as the Equation of State (EoS) parameter, during the cosmic evolution, are calculated. The models are stable throughout the universe expansion. The region in which the model is presented is dependent on the real parameter δ of holographic dark energies. For all δ≥4.5, the models vary from ΛCDM era to the quintessence era.

We discuss the interacting modified QCD ghost dark energy and generalized ghost pilgrim dark energy with cold dark matter in the framework of dynamical Chern–Simons modified gravity. We investigate the cosmological parameters such as Hubble parameter, deceleration parameter and equation of state. We also discuss the physical significance of various cosmological planes like [Formula: see text] and statefinders. It is found that the results of cosmological parameters as well as planes explain the accelerated expansion of the Universe and are compatible with observational data.

This work deals with two fluid system in the framework of generalized Rastall gravity theory. One component represents dark energy whereas the other is dark matter. For the dark energy component, entropy corrected holographic and entropy corrected new agegraphic dark energy models in power-law and logarithmic versions are taken into account. For this study, we assume two classes of scale factors in which one corresponds to the future singularity and another corresponds to the initial singularity. For each of the entropy corrected dark energy models, the cosmological parameters such as Hubble parameter, deceleration parameter and equation of state parameter are calculated and their implications are established. Furthermore, to describe the stability analysis of the models, the behaviors of the squared speed of sound are analyzed graphically for each of these models. From the graphical analysis of [Formula: see text] plane, the thawing or freezing regions of all the models are determined.

We propose a nonparametric method to determine the sign of γ — the redshift evolution index of dark energy. This is important for distinguishing between positive energy models, a cosmological constant, and what is generally called ghost models. Our method is based on geometrical properties and is more tolerant to uncertainties of other cosmological parameters than fitting methods in what concerns the sign of γ. The same parametrization can also be used for determining γ and its redshift dependence by fitting. We apply this method to SNLS supernovae and to gold sample of re-analyzed supernovae data from Riess et al. Both datasets show strong indication of a negative γ. If this result is confirmed by more extended and precise data, many of the dark energy models, including simple cosmological constant, standard quintessence models without interaction between quintessence scalar field(s) and matter, and scaling models are ruled out. We have also applied this method to Gurzadyan–Xue models with varying fundamental constants to demonstrate the possibility of using it to test other cosmologies.
