Generalized model of interacting dark energy and dark matter: Phase portrait analysis for evolving universe

The main aim of this work is to give a suitable explanation of present accelerating universe through an acceptable interactive dynamical cosmological model. A three-fluid cosmological model is introduced in the background of Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson-Walker asymptotically flat spacetime. This model consists of interactive dark matter and dark energy with baryonic matter, taken as perfect fluid, satisfying barotropic equation of state. We consider dust as the candidate of dark matter. A scalar field [Formula: see text] represents dark energy with potential [Formula: see text]. Einstein’s field equations are utilized to construct a three-dimensional interactive autonomous system by choosing suitable interaction between dark energy and dark matter. We take the interaction kernel as [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] indicates the density of dark energy, [Formula: see text] is the interacting constant and [Formula: see text] is Hubble parameter. In order to explain the stability of this system, we obtain some suitable critical points. We analyze stability of obtained critical points to show the different phases of universe and cosmological implications. Surprisingly, we find some stable critical points which represent late-time dark energy-dominated era when a model parameter [Formula: see text] is equal to [Formula: see text]. We introduce a two-dimensional interactive autonomous system and after phase portrait analysis of it, we get several stable points which represent dark energy-dominated era and late-time cosmic acceleration simultaneously. Here, we also demonstrate the variation in interaction at vicinity of phantom barrier [Formula: see text]. From our work, we can also predict the future phase evolution of the universe.

Standardizing Dainotti-correlated gamma-ray bursts, and using them with standardized Amati-correlated gamma-ray bursts to constrain cosmological model parameters

We show that each of the three Dainotti-correlated gamma-ray burst (GRB) data sets recently compiled by Wang et al. and Hu et al., that together probe the redshift range 0.35 ≤ z ≤ 5.91, obey cosmological-model-independent Dainotti correlations and so are standardizable. We use these GRB data in conjunction with the best currently-available Amati-correlated GRB data, that probe 0.3399 ≤ z ≤ 8.2, to constrain cosmological model parameters. The resulting cosmological constraints are weak, providing lower limits on the non-relativistic matter density parameter, mildly favoring non-zero spatial curvature, and largely consistent with currently accelerated cosmological expansion as well as with constraints determined from better-established data.

Cosmological model with time varying deceleration parameter in F(R, G) gravity

In this paper, we study the dynamical behaviour of the universe in the F (R, G) theory of gravity, where R and G respectively denote the Ricci scalar and Gauss-Bonnet invariant. Our wide analysis encompasses the energy conditions, cosmographic parameters, Om(z) diagnostic, stability and the viability of reconstructing the referred model through a scalar field formalism. The model obtained here shows the quintessence like behaviour at late times.

Cosmology at high redshift — a probe of fundamental physics

An observational program focused on the high redshift (2<z<6) Universe has the opportunity to dramatically improve over upcoming LSS and CMB surveys on measurements of both the standard cosmological model and its extensions. Using a Fisher matrix formalism that builds upon recent advances in Lagrangian perturbation theory, we forecast constraints for future spectroscopic and 21-cm surveys on the standard cosmological model, curvature, neutrino mass, relativistic species, primordial features, primordial non-Gaussianity, dynamical dark energy, and gravitational slip. We compare these constraints with those achievable by current or near-future surveys such as DESI and Euclid, all under the same forecasting formalism, and compare our formalism with traditional linear methods. Our Python code FishLSS — used to calculate the Fisher information of the full shape power spectrum, CMB lensing, the cross-correlation of CMB lensing with galaxies, and combinations thereof — is publicly available.

A buyer’s guide to the Hubble constant

Since the expansion of the universe was first established by Edwin Hubble and Georges Lemaître about a century ago, the Hubble constant $$H_0$$ H 0 which measures its rate has been of great interest to astronomers. Besides being interesting in its own right, few properties of the universe can be deduced without it. In the last decade, a significant gap has emerged between different methods of measuring it, some anchored in the nearby universe, others at cosmological distances. The SH0ES team has found $$H_0 = 73.2 \pm 1.3 \; \;\,\hbox {kms}^{-1} \,\hbox {Mpc}^{-1}$$ H 0 = 73.2 ± 1.3 kms - 1 Mpc - 1 locally, whereas the value found for the early universe by the Planck Collaboration is $$H_0 = 67.4 \pm 0.5 \; \;\,\hbox {kms}^{-1} \,\hbox {Mpc}^{-1}$$ H 0 = 67.4 ± 0.5 kms - 1 Mpc - 1 from measurements of the cosmic microwave background. Is this gap a sign that the well-established $${\varLambda} {\text{CDM}}$$ Λ CDM cosmological model is somehow incomplete? Or are there unknown systematics? And more practically, how should humble astronomers pick between competing claims if they need to assume a value for a certain purpose? In this article, we review results and what changes to the cosmological model could be needed to accommodate them all. For astronomers in a hurry, we provide a buyer’s guide to the results, and make recommendations.

Inflation from the Symmetry of the Generalized Cosmological Model

It is shown that the inflationary model is the result of the symmetry of the generalized F(R,T,X,φ)-cosmological model using the Noether symmetry. It leads to a solution, a particular case of which is Starobinsky’s cosmological model. It is shown that even in the more particular case of cosmological models F(R,X,φ) and F(T,X,φ) the Monge–Ampère equation is still obtained, one of the solutions including the Starobinsky model. For these models, it is shown that one can obtain both power-law and exponential solutions for the scale factor from the Euler–Lagrange equations. In this case, the scalar field φ has similar time dependences, exponential and exponential. The resulting form of the Lagrangian of the model allows us to consider it as a model with R2 or X2. However, it is also shown that previously less studied models with a non-minimal relationship between R and X are important, as one of the possible models. It is shown that in this case the power-law model can have a limited evolutionary period with a negative value of the kinetic term.
