Abstract

In this paper, we present several explicit reconstructions for {the aether scalar tensor (AeST) theory} derived from the background of Friedmann-Lemaı^\hat{\text{\i}}tre-Robertson-Walker cosmological evolution. It is shown that the Einstein-Hilbert Lagrangian with a positive cosmological constant is the only Lagrangian capable of accurately replicating the exact expansion history of the Λ\Lambda cold dark matter (Λ\LambdaCDM) universe filled solely with dust-like matter. However, the Λ\LambdaCDM-era can be produced within the framework of the AeST theory for some other fluids, including a perfect fluid with p=(1/3)ρp=-(1/3)\rho, multifluids, and nonisentropic perfect fluids. Moreover, we demonstrate that the Λ\LambdaCDM-era also can be replicated with no real matter field for the AeST theory. The cosmic evolution resulting from both the power-law and de-Sitter solutions also can be obtained.
