Dynamic study of Weyl tensor corrected f(R) gravity
We investigate the cosmological and thermodynamic aspects of Weyl tensor corrected [Formula: see text] gravity. For this purpose, we assume some well-known cosmological bouncing scenarios such as symmetric bounce cosmology, oscillatory cosmology, matter bounce cosmology, little rip cosmology, superbounce cosmology and develop some cosmological parameters. For instance, the equation of state parameter [Formula: see text] describes the quintessence phase for symmetric bounce cosmology, vacuum phase for oscillatory, little rip and matter bounce cosmology while it gives both quintessence and vacuum phases for matter bounce cosmology. It is also observed that the squared speed of sound [Formula: see text] gives positive behavior for all models resulting in that the models assumed are stable. We evaluate generalized second law of thermodynamics which remains valid for all cosmological models except symmetric bounce cosmology. Moreover, we also investigate the thermal equilibrium condition [Formula: see text] and found its validity for all models except symmetric bounce cosmological model.
