Statefinder diagnostic in a torsion cosmology
We apply the statefinder diagnostic to the torsion cosmology, in which an
accounting for the accelerated universe is considered in term of a
Riemann-Cartan geometry: dynamic scalar torsion. We find that there are some
typical characteristic of the evolution of statefinder parameters for the
torsion cosmology that can be distinguished from the other cosmological models.
Furthermore, we also show that statefinder diagnostic has a direct bearing on
the critical points. The statefinder diagnostic divides the torsion parameter
into differential ranges, which is in keeping with the requirement of
dynamical analysis. In addition, we fit the scalar torsion model to ESSENCE
supernovae data and give the best fit values of the model parameters.Comment: 18 pages, 15 figures, accepted paper in JCA
Statefinder and Om Diagnostics for Interacting New Holographic Dark Energy Model and Generalized Second Law of Thermodynamics
In this work, we have considered that the flat FRW universe is filled with
the mixture of dark matter and the new holographic dark energy. If there is an
interaction, we have investigated the natures of deceleration parameter,
statefinder and diagnostics. We have examined the validity of the first
and generalized second laws of thermodynamics under these interactions on the
event as well as apparent horizon. It has been observed that the first law is
violated on the event horizon. However, the generalized second law is valid
throughout the evolution of the universe enveloped by the apparent horizon.
When the event horizon is considered as the enveloping horizon, the generalized
second law is found to break down excepting at late stage of the universe.Comment: 9 pages, 13 figure
Interacting Ricci Dark Energy and its Statefinder Description
In this paper we have considered an interacting Ricci dark energy in flat FRW
universe. We have reconstructed the Hubble's parameter under this interaction.
Also, we have investigated the statefinder diagnostics. It has been revealed
that the equation of state parameter behaves like quintessence in this
interaction and from the statefinder diagnostics it has been concluded that the
interacting Ricci dark energy interpolates between dust and CDM stages
of the universe.Comment: 9 pages, 3 figure
Expanding Universe: Thermodynamical Aspects From Different Models
The pivotal point of the paper is to discuss the behavior of temperature,
pressure, energy density as a function of volume along with determination of
caloric EoS from following two model: & .
The time scale of instability for this two models is discussed. In the paper we
then generalize our result and arrive at general expression for energy density
irrespective of the model. The thermodynamical stability for both of the model
and the general case is discussed from this viewpoint. We also arrive at a
condition on the limiting behavior of thermodynamic parameter to validate the
third law of thermodynamics and interpret the general mathematical expression
of integration constant (what we get while integrating energy
conservation equation) physically relating it to number of micro states. The
constraint on the allowed values of the parameters of the models is discussed
which ascertains stability of universe. The validity of thermodynamical laws
within apparent and event horizon is discussed.Comment: 16 pages, 3 figures(Accepted for publication in "Astrophysics and

Cosmological Evolution of a Tachyon-Quintom Model of Dark Energy
In this work we study the cosmological evolution of a dark energy model with
two scalar fields, i.e. the tachyon and the phantom tachyon. This model enables
the equation of state to change from to in the evolution of
the universe. The phase-space analysis for such a system with inverse square
potentials shows that there exists a unique stable critical point, which has
power-law solutions. In this paper, we also study another form of
tachyon-quintom model with two fields, which voluntarily involves the
interactions between both fields.Comment: 17 pages, 10 figure
Cosmological Evolution Across Phantom Crossing and the Nature of the Horizon
In standard cosmology, with the evolution of the universe, the matter density
and thermodynamic pressure gradually decreases. Also in course of evolution,
the matter in the universe obeys (or violates) some restrictions or energy
conditions. If the matter distribution obeys strong energy condition (SEC), the
universe is in a decelerating phase while violation of SEC indicates an
accelerated expansion of the universe. In the period of accelerated expansion
the matter may be either of quintessence nature or of phantom nature depending
on the fulfilment of the weak energy condition (WEC) or violation of it. As
recent observational evidences demand that the universe is going through an
accelerated expansion so mater should be either quintessence or phantom in
nature. In the present work we study the evolution of the universe through the
phantom barrier (i.e. the dividing line between the quintessence and phantom
era) and examine how apparent and event horizon change across the barrier.
Finally, we investigate the possibility of occurrence of any singularity in
phantom era.Comment: 7 pages and 4 figure
Euclidean wormholes with Phantom field and Phantom field accompanied by perfect fluid
We study the classical Euclidean wormhole solutions for the gravitational
systems with minimally coupled pure Phantom field and minimally coupled Phantom
field accompanied by perfect fluid. It is shown that such solutions do exist
and then the general forms of the Phantom field potential are obtained for
which there are classical Euclidean wormhole solutions.Comment: 15 pages, major revision with perfect flui
Phantom phase power-law solution in gravity
Power-law solutions for gravity coupled with perfect fluid have been
studied for spatially flat universe. It is shown that despite the matter
dominated and accelerating power-law solutions, the power-law solution exists
for an special form of when this universe enters a Phantom phase.Comment: 10 pages, Published online in Astrophysics and Space Scienc
Statefinder diagnostic and stability of modified gravity consistent with holographic and new agegraphic dark energy
Recently one of us derived the action of modified gravity consistent with the
holographic and new-agegraphic dark energy. In this paper, we investigate the
stability of the Lagrangians of the modified gravity as discussed in [M. R.
Setare, Int. J. Mod. Phys. D 17 (2008) 2219; M. R. Setare, Astrophys. Space
Sci. 326 (2010) 27]. We also calculate the statefinder parameters which
classify our dark energy model.Comment: 12 pages, 2 figures, accepted by Gen. Relativ. Gravi
Statefinder Parameter for Varying G in Three Fluid System
In this work, we have considered variable G in flat FRW universe filled with
the mixture of dark energy, dark matter and radiation. If there is no
interaction between the three fluids, the deceleration parameter and
statefinder parameters have been calculated in terms of dimensionless density
parameters which can be fixed by observational data. Also the interaction
between three fluids has been analyzed due to constant . The statefinder
parameters also calculated in two cases: pressure is constant and pressure is
variable.Comment: 5 pages, Accepted for publication in "Astrophysics and Space Science
