Constraints for the thawing and freezing potentials
Abstract
We study the accelerating present universe in terms of the time evolution of the equation of state (redshift ) due to thawing and freezing scalar potentials in the quintessence model. The values of and at scale factor of are associated with two parameters of each potential. For five type scalar potentials, the scalar fields and as function of time and/or are numerically calculated under the fixed boundary condition of . The observational constraint (Planck 2015) is imposed to test whether the numerical is in . Some solutions show the thawing features in the freezing potentials. Mutually exclusive allowed regions in vs. diagram are obtained in order to identify the likely scalar potential and even the potential parameters by future observational tests.
