Spherical accretion onto higher-dimensional Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m Black Hole

We obtain relativistic solutions of spherically symmetric accretion by a dynamical analysis of a generalised Hamiltonian for higher-dimensional Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m (RN) Black Hole (BH). We consider two different fluids namely, an isotropic fluid and a non-linear polytropic fluid to analyse the critical points in a higher-dimensional RN BH. The flow dynamics of the fluids are studied in different spacetime dimensions in the framework of Hamiltonian formalism. The isotropic fluid is found to have both transonic and non-transonic flow behaviour, but in the case of polytropic fluid, the flow behaviour is found to exhibit only non-transonic flow, determined by a critical point that is related to the local sound speed. The critical radius is found to change with the spacetime dimensions. Starting from the usual four dimensions it is noted that as the dimension increases the critical radius decreases, attains a minimum at a specific dimension ($D>4$) and thereafter increases again. The mass accretion rate for isotropic fluid is determined using Hamiltonian formalism. The maximum mass accretion rate for RN BH with different equations of state parameters is studied in addition to spacetime dimensions. The flow behaviour and mass accretion rate for a change in BH charge is also studied analytically. It is noted that the maximum mass accretion rate in a higher-dimensional Schwarzschild BH is the lowest, which however, increases with the increase in charge parameter in a higher-dimensional RN BH.

Dynamical stability and phase space analysis of an Emergent Universe with non-interacting and interacting fluids

We investigate the evolution of a flat Emergent Universe obtained with a non-linear equation of state (nEoS) in Einstein's general theory of Relativity. The nEoS is equivalent to three different types of barotropic cosmic fluids, which are found from the nEoS parameter. The EU began expanding initially with no interaction among the cosmic fluids. Assuming an interaction that sets in at a time $t \geq t_i$ in the fluid components, we study the evolution of the EU that leads to the present observed universe. We adopt a dynamical system analysis method to obtain the critical points of the autonomous system for studying the evolution of an EU with or without interaction in fluid components. We also study the stability of critical points and draw the phase portraits. The density parameters and the corresponding cosmological parameters are obtained for both the non-interacting and interacting phases of the evolution dynamics.

Observational constraints on the Emergent Universe with interacting non-linear fluids and its stability analysis

We investigate a flat Emergent Universe (EU) with a nonlinear equation of state which is equivalent to three different compositions of fluids. In the EU, initially, the evolution of the universe began with no interaction, but as time evolves, an interaction sets in among the three fluids leading to the observed universe. The characteristic of an EU is that it is a singularity-free universe that evolves with all the basic features of the early evolution. A given nonlinear equation of state parameter permits a universe with three different fluids. We get a universe with dark energy, cosmic string, and radiation domination to begin with, which at a later epoch transits into a universe with three different fluids with matter domination, dark matter, and dark energy for a given interaction strength among the cosmic fluids. Later the model parameters are constrained using the observed Hubble data and Type Ia Supernova (SnIa) data from the Pantheon data set. The classical stability analysis of the model is performed using the square speed of sound. It is found that a theoretically stable cosmological model can be obtained in this case, however, the model becomes classically unstable at the present epoch when the observational bounds on the model parameters are taken into account.

Observationally constrained emergent universe scenario with non-conventional late-time dynamics

In this paper, we attempt to explore the possibility of a obtaining a viable emergent universe scenario supported by a type of fluid known as the extended Chaplygin gas, which extends a modification to the equation of state of the well known modified Chaplygin gas by considering additional higher order barotropic fluid terms. We consider quadratic modification only. Such a fluid is capable of explaining the present cosmic acceleration and is a possible dark energy candidate. We construct a theoretical model of the emergent universe assuming it is dominated by such a fluid at late times. Our model results in non-conventional late-time behavior and deviates from the standard $\Lambda$-CDM model. Dark energy is found to cross the \textit{phantom} divide in the past and present besides exhibiting \textit{thawing} behaviour in the future, asymptotically leading to transition into a decelerating phase making dark energy a \textit{transient} phenomenon. The qualitative nature of variation of the cosmological parameters resulting from model parameters observationally constrained through Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling of Pantheon+OHD data is interestingly found to resemble the DESI results. Also,the value of $H(z)$ at a redshift $z=2.34$ and present value of Hubble parameter fits much better than $\Lambda$-CDM with recent observations. This leads us to the realization that such a fluid is not only a probable candidate for dark energy, but also sources an emergent universe unlike modified Chaplygin gas and the initial singularity problem can be resolved in a flat universe within the standard relativistic context.

Barrow Holographic Dark Energy in Brane World Cosmology

Cosmological features of Barrow Holographic Dark Energy (BHDE), a recent generalization of original Holographic dark energy with a richer structure, are studied in the context of DGP brane, RS II brane-world, and the cyclic universe. It is found that a flat FRW scenario with pressure less dust and a dark energy component described as BHDE can accommodate late time acceleration with Hubble horizon considered as infrared cut off even in the absence of interaction between the dark sectors. Statefinder diagnostic reveals that these model resemble $\Lambda CDM$ cosmology in future. It is found that BHDE parameter $\Delta$, despite its theoretically constrained range of values, is significant in describing the evolution of the universe, however, a classically stable cosmological model cannot be obtained in the RS-II and DGP brane. Viability of the models is also probed with observed Hubble data.

Study of Gravastars in Rastall Gravity

Gravastars have been considered as a feasible alternative to black holes in the past couple of decades. Stable models of gravastar have been studied in many of the alternative gravity theories besides standard General Relativity (GR). The Rastall theory of gravity is a popular alternative to GR, specially in the cosmological and astrophysical context. Here, we propose a stellar model under the Rastall gravity following Mazur-Mottola's \cite{Mazur2001,Mazur2004} conjecture. The gravastar consists of three regions, viz., ($I$) Interior region, ($II$) Intermediate shell region, and ($III$) Exterior region. The pressure within the interior core region is assumed with a constant negative matter-energy density which provides a repulsive force over the entire thin shell region. The shell is assumed to be made up of fluid of ultrarelativistic plasma which follows the Zel'dovich's conjecture of stiff fluid \cite{Zeldo1962,Zel'dovich1972}. It is also assumed that the pressure is proportional to the matter-energy density according to Zel'dovich's conjecture, which cancel the repulsive force exerted by the interior region. The exterior region is completely vacuum which is described by the Schwarzschild-de Sitter solution. Under all these specifications we obtain a set of exact and singularity-free solutions of the gravastar model presenting several physically valid features within the framework of Rastall gravity. The physical properties of the shell region namely, the energy density, proper length, total energy and entropy are explored. The stability of the gravastar model is investigated using the surface redshift against the shell thickness and maximizing the entropy of the shell within the framework of Rastall gravity.

R\' enyi Holographic Dark Energy in Higher Dimension Cosmology

Rényi holographic dark energy (RHDE) correspondence is discussed in higher dimensional cosmology, namely Kaluza-Klein (KK) cosmology. Both interacting and non-interacting cosmological scenario are considered here. It is found that the non-interacting model naturally leads to the late accelerated universe, unlike the standard Holographic Dark Energy models in 4$D$, which requires interaction to accommodate the late-time acceleration of the universe. The interacting model produces an accelerating universe at late time albeit failing to attain the estimated present value of the deceleration parameter. The evolution of different cosmologically relevant parameters have been estimated. We consider here two diagnostic tests namely, state-finder and $Om$ diagnostics to study the non-interacting model which is more favoured in the light of recent cosmological observations. Classical stability of the cosmological models are also discussed
