Generation of Bianchi type V cosmological models with varying -term
Bianchi type V perfect fluid cosmological models are investigated with
cosmological term varying with time. Using a generation technique
(Camci {\it et al.}, 2001), it is shown that the Einstein's field equations are
solvable for any arbitrary cosmic scale function. Solutions for particular
forms of cosmic scale functions are also obtained. The cosmological constant is
found to be decreasing function of time, which is supported by results from
recent type Ia supernovae observations. Some physical aspects of the models are
also discussed.Comment: 16 pages, 3 figures, submitted to CJ
Equation of state for Universe from similarity symmetries
In this paper we proposed to use the group of analysis of symmetries of the
dynamical system to describe the evolution of the Universe. This methods is
used in searching for the unknown equation of state. It is shown that group of
symmetries enforce the form of the equation of state for noninteracting scaling
multifluids. We showed that symmetries give rise the equation of state in the
form and energy density
, which
is commonly used in cosmology. The FRW model filled with scaling fluid (called
homological) is confronted with the observations of distant type Ia supernovae.
We found the class of model parameters admissible by the statistical analysis
of SNIa data. We showed that the model with scaling fluid fits well to
supernovae data. We found that and (), which can correspond to (hyper) phantom fluid, and to a
high density universe. However if we assume prior that
then the favoured model is close to concordance
CDM model. Our results predict that in the considered model with
scaling fluids distant type Ia supernovae should be brighter than in
CDM model, while intermediate distant SNIa should be fainter than in
CDM model. We also investigate whether the model with scaling fluid is
actually preferred by data over CDM model. As a result we find from
the Akaike model selection criterion prefers the model with noninteracting
scaling fluid.Comment: accepted for publication versio
