This cosmological model is a study of modified $f(Q,T)$ theory of gravity which was recently proposed by Xu {\it et al.} (Eur. Phys. J. C {\bf 79}, 708 (2019)). In this theory of gravity, the action contains an arbitrary function $f(Q,T)$…

The $f(R,T)$ gravity is a theory whose gravitational action depends arbitrarily on the Ricci scalar, $R$, and the trace of the stress-energy tensor, $T$; its field equations also depend on matter Lagrangian, $\mathcal{L}_{m}$. In the…
