Perturbation in an interacting dark universe

In this paper we have considered an interacting model of dark energy and have looked into the evolution of the dark sectors. By solving the perturbation equations numerically, we have studied the imprints on the growth of matter as well as dark energy fluctuations. It has been found that for higher rate of interaction strength for the coupling term, visible imprints on the dark energy density fluctuations are observed at the early epochs of evolution.

Growth of Perturbations using Lambert$W$ Equation of State

Recently, a novel equation of state (EoS) parameter for dark energy has been introduced which deals with a special mathematical function, known as the Lambert$W$ function. In this paper, we study the effect on the growth of perturbations for the Lambert$W$ dark energy model. We perform the analysis for two different approaches. In the first case we consider the universe to be filled with two different fluid components, namely, the baryonic matter component and the Lambert$W$ dark energy component, while in the second case we consider that there is a single fluid component in the universe whose equation of state parameter is described by the Lambert$W$ function. We then compare the growth rates of Lambert$W$ model with that for a standard $\Lambda$CDM model as well as the CPL model. Our results indicate that the presence of Lambert$W$ dynamical dark energy sector changes the growth rate and affects the matter fluctuations in the universe to a great extent.

Dynamical System Analysis for Steep Potentials

In this work we have performed the dynamical system analysis for steep(er) exponential potentials considering different values of the steepness index $n$. We have performed the analysis using centre manifold theory as well as by employing numerical method. We have shown that in most of the cases, the higher values of steepness index corresponds to an unstable solution. We have shown that with this steep(er) potentials one can not have a phase transition from dark matter to dark energy in the past.

A new parametrization of dark energy equation of state leading to double exponential potential

We show that a canonical scalar field with a phenomenological form of energy density or equivalently an equation of state parameter can provide the required transition from decelerated ($q>0$) to accelerated expansion ($q<0$) phase of the universe. We have used the latest Type Ia Supernova (SNIa) and Hubble parameter datasets to constrain the model parameters. It has been found that for each of these dataset, the transition in deceleration parameter $q$ takes place at the recent past ($z<1$). The future evolution of $q$ is also discussed in the context of the model under consideration. Furthermore, using those datasets, we have reconstructed $\omega_{\phi}(z)$, the equation of state parameter for the scalar field. The results show that the reconstructed forms of $q(z)$ and $\omega_{\phi}(z)$ do not differ much from the standard $\Lambda$CDM value at the current epoch. Finally, the functional form of the relevant potential $V(\phi)$ is derived by a parametric reconstruction from the observational dataset. The corresponding $V(\phi)$ comes out to be a double exponential potential which has a number of cosmological implications. Additionally, we have also studied the effect of this particular scalar field dark energy sector on the evolution of matter over-densities and compared it with the $\Lambda$CDM model.
