In this study, Friedmann–Robertson–Walker space-time filled with a perfect fluid in [Formula: see text] modified theory, where [Formula: see text] is the Ricci scalar and [Formula: see text] is the trace of the energy–momentum tensor of matter, has been considered. The investigation of the phase transition of the universe from the decelerating expansion phase to the accelerating one has been made by adopting a special form of the varying deceleration parameter that is inversely proportional to the Hubble parameter. The exact solution of the field equations has been derived. The kinematic and dynamical quantities of the model have been obtained and their evolutions have been discussed by means of their graphs. The statefinder diagnostic has been used and the age of the universe has been computed for testing the validity of the model. It has been shown that the dominant energy of the model is ordinary matter which behaves as the SCDM model at the beginning and it is a quintessence like fluid which behaves as the [Formula: see text]CDM model at late times.

In this paper, we have researched tachyon field, k-essence and quintessence dark energy (DE) models for Friedmann–Robertson–Walker (FRW) universe with varying G and [Formula: see text] in f(R, T) gravitation theory. The theory of f(R, T) is proposed by Harko et al. [Phys. Rev. D 84, 024020, 2011]. In this theory, R is the Ricci scalar and T is the trace of energy–momentum tensor. For the solutions of field equations, we have used linearly varying deceleration parameter (LVDP), the equation of state (EoS) and the ratio between [Formula: see text] and Hubble parameter. Also, we have discussed some physical behavior of the models with various graphics.

We study the evolution of viscous modified Chaplygin gas (MCG) interacting with f(R, T) gravity in flat FRW universe, where T is the trace of energy–momentum tensor. The field equations are formulated for a particular model f(R, T) = R + 2[Formula: see text]T and constraints for the conservation of energy–momentum tensor are obtained. We investigate the behavior of total energy density, pressure and equation of state (EoS) parameter for emergent, intermediate as well as logamediate scenarios of the universe with two interacting models. It is found that the EoS parameter lies in the matter-dominated or quintessence era for all the three scenarios while the bulk viscosity enhances the expansion for the intermediate and logamediate scenarios.

In this paper, we investigate the anisotropic Kantowski–Sachs model in the f(R, T) theory of gravity proposed by Harko et al. (Phys. Rev. D, 84, 024020, 2011) with scalar field (quintessence or phantom). Here R is the Ricci scalar and T is the trace of the energy–momentum tensor. The field equations have been solved using the fact that scalar expansion is proportional to the shear scalar of the space–time. We explore the behavior of the deceleration parameter, which represents a transition of the universe from the early decelerating phase to the present accelerated phase. Some physical properties and various cosmological distance measures are also obtained and discussed.

In this study, the validity of the generalized second law of thermodynamics (GSLT) has been investigated in F(R, G) gravity. We consider that the boundary of the universe is surrounded by an apparent horizon in the spatially flat Friedmann–Robertson–Walker (FRW) universe, and we take into account the Hawking temperature on the horizons. The unified solutions of the field equations corresponding to gravity theory have been applied to the validity of the GSLT frame, and in this way, both the solutions have been verified and all the expansion history of the universe has been shown in a unified picture.

The present study deals with a spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi-II cosmological model representing massive strings. The energy–momentum tensor, as formulated by Letelier,10 has been used to construct a massive string cosmological model for which the expansion scalar is proportional to one of the components of shear tensor. The Einstein's field equations have been solved by applying a variation law for generalized Hubble's parameter that yields a constant value of deceleration parameter in Bianchi-II spacetime. A comparative study of accelerating and decelerating modes of the evolution of universe has been carried out in the presence of string scenario. The study reveals that massive strings dominate the early Universe. The strings eventually disappear from the Universe for sufficiently large times, which is in agreement with the current astronomical observations.

A study of Bianchi Type I cosmological model is undertaken in the framework of creation of particles. To accommodate the creation of new particles, the universe is regarded as an Open thermodynamical system. The energy conservation equation is modified with the incorporation of a creation pressure in the energy momentum tensor. Exact solutions of the field equations are obtained (i) for a particular choice of the particle creation function and (ii) by considering the deceleration parameter to be constant. In the first model the behavior of the solution at late times is investigated. The physical aspects of the model have also been discussed. In the case of the second model we have restricted our analysis to the power law behaviour for the average scale factor. This leads to a particular form for the particle creation function. The behavior of the solution is investigated and the physical aspects of the model have also been discussed for the matter dominated era.

In this paper, we explore the reconstruction paradigm for generalized ghost pilgrim dark energy model with [Formula: see text] gravity ([Formula: see text] is the Gauss–Bonnet invariant and [Formula: see text] is the trace of the energy–momentum tensor) depending upon the speculation of black hole-free universe. To accomplish this, we adopt correspondence scheme for dust fluid configuration with flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) universe. The cosmic behavior of reconstructed models is examined through cosmological diagnostic parameters and phase planes. It is found that the deceleration parameter indicates accelerated phase while equation-of-state parameter represents phantom regime for some specific range of free parameters. The squared speed of sound parameter gives stable models for analyzing evolutionary paradigm of the universe. The trajectories of [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] plane gives thawing region, whereas [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] phase plane corresponds to Chaplygin gas model. We conclude that the resulting model represents self-consistent phantom-like universe for [Formula: see text] cannot be fraction) as well as stable generalized ghost pilgrim dark energy [Formula: see text] model.

In the present article, we study the physical and geometric scene of the inflection of the Friedmann- Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) and an axially symmetric (AS) perfect fluid Universe with thick domain walls in f(R, T) theory of gravitation [Harko et al., Phys. Rev. D {84} (2011) 024020], where R and T represent Ricci scalar and trace of the stress energy-momentum tensor respectively in the scenario of decelerating-accelerating transition phases. To ascertain the exact solution of the corresponding field equations, we use the concept of a time-subordinate deceleration parameter (DP) which brings forth the scale factor a(t) = sinh^{\frac{1}{n}}(\alpha t), where n and \alpha are positive parameters. For n\in (0.27, 1], a class of accelerating phase is ensured while for n > 1, the Universe attains a phase transition from positive (decelerating) to negative (accelerating) which is uniform with recent observations. The models have been tested for physically acceptable by using stability. More or less physical and geometric behavior of the models are also devoted.

In this paper, we discuss the cosmic evolution in a modified theory involving non-minimal interaction of geometry and matter, labeled as [Formula: see text] gravity, where [Formula: see text] is the non-minimal interaction term. First, we develop the dynamical [Formula: see text] field equations for Friedmann–Lemaitre–Robertson–Walker (FLRW) spacetime and then by using divergence of these equations, we explore its interesting outcome of non-conserved energy–momentum tensor (EMT). The presence of geometry matter coupling in such theories results in non-geodesic test particles motion and hence causes an additional force orthogonal to four-velocity of these particles. By taking these interesting features into account along with a particular choice of Lagrangian [Formula: see text], we explore the resulting expression of energy density. Further, the free model parameters are constrained using energy condition bounds where it is concluded that these values of free parameters are compatible with the recent data.

Fields which couple directly to the cosmological constant (Λ) may provide a scenario for explaining the smallness of Λ at the present epoch. In this paper we postulate the existence of a scalar field which couples universally to the trace of energy—momentum tensor of matter. Various possibilities for the explicit form of the coupling function are considered. The field equations in such a theory are derived, and the cosmological models with such a scalar field are analyzed. The proposed coupling makes the effective cosmological constant a dynamically evolving quantity, which can be driven to zero by allowing the scalar field to grow to sufficiently large values. For the case of linear coupling, however, it does not seem to be possible to attain sufficient growth during the age of the universe (~1017 s ). A quadratic coupling to the trace can evolve Λ to a value consistent with today’s observations, but the universe is dominated by the scalar field, rather than by radiation, at late times. The evolution is singular for couplings through a higher power law, in that the scalar field blows up at a finite time. The model is not very sensitive to initial conditions and the problems encountered can be avoided only by a severe fine-tuning of the parameters in the basic theory.
