Phantom cosmology with general potentials
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a unified treatment of the phase space of a spatially flat homogeneous and isotropic universe dominated by a phantom field. Results on the dynamics and the late time attractors (Big Rip, de Sitter, etc.) are derived without specifying the form of the phantom potential, using only general assumptions on its shape. Many results found in the literature are quickly recovered and predictions are made for new scenarios. PACS numbers: 98.80.-k, 04.90.+e

3-Form Cosmology: Phantom Behaviour, Singularities and Interactions
The latest cosmological observations by the Planck collaboration (and combined with others) are compatible with a phantom-like behaviour (w < −1) for the dark energy equation of state that drives the current acceleration of the Universe. With this mindset, we look into models where dark energy is described by a 3-form field minimally coupled to gravity. When compared to a scalar field, these mo...
متن کاملSome Impacts of Lorentz Violation on Cosmology
The impact of Lorentz violation on the dynamics of a scalar field is investigated. In particular, we study the dynamics of a scalar field in the scalar-vector-tensor theory where the vector field is constrained to be unity and time like. By taking a generic form of the scalar field action, a generalized dynamical equation for the scalar-vector-tensor theory of gravity is obtained to describe th...
متن کاملStability of Accelerating Cosmology in Two Scalar-Tensor Theory: Little Rip versus de Sitter
We develop the general reconstruction scheme in two scalar model. The quintom-like theory which may describe (different) non-singular Little Rip or de Sitter cosmology is reconstructed. The number of scalar phantom dark energy models (with Little Rip cosmology or asymptotically de Sitter evolution) is presented. Stability issue of such dark energy cosmologies as well as the flow to fixed points...
متن کاملAdventures in Friedmann Cosmology: An Educationally Detailed Expansion of the Cosmological Friedmann Equations
The general relativistic cosmological Friedmann equations that describe how the scale factor of the universe evolves are expanded explicitly to include energy species not usually seen. The evolution of a universe as indicated by the Friedmann equations when dominated by a single, isotropic, stable, static, perfect-fluid energy species are discussed and compared. These energy species include pha...
متن کاملHǒrava-Lifshitz Dark Energy
We formulate Hořava-Lifshitz cosmology with an additional scalar field that leads to an effective dark energy sector. We find that, due to the inherited features from the gravitational background, Hořava-Lifshitz dark energy naturally presents very interesting behaviors, possessing a varying equation-of-state parameter, exhibiting phantom behavior and allowing for a realization of the phantom d...
