We examine quintom dark energy models, produced by the combined consideration of a canonical and a phantom field, with nearly flat potentials and dark energy equation-of-state parameter $w_{DE}$ close to -1. We find that all such models…
Recent baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) measurements from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) collaboration have renewed interest in dynamical dark energy models, particularly those that cross the "phantom divide" ($w_{\rm DE}…
We establish constraints on $f(T)$ gravity by considering the possibility of a scenario that supports a phantom crossing of the equation of state parameter $\omega_{DE}$. After determining the viable parameter space of the model, while…

We present a general method to reproduce a given cosmological background through energy exchange between dark energy (DE) and dark matter (DM). This can be simply realized with a standard quintessence scalar field that controls the DM mass.…
The dark energy transition between quintessence ($w>-1$) and phantom ($w<-1$) regimes (the crossing of the cosmological constant boundary) is studied using the dark energy equation of state. Models characterized by this type of transition…
The dark energy crossing of the cosmological constant boundary (the transition between the quintessence and phantom regimes) is described in terms of the implicitly defined dark energy equation of state. The generalizations of the models…

We study possible crossing of the phantom divided barrier in a Lorentz invariance violating dark energy model. Lorentz invariance violation which is achieved by introducing a vector field in the action, incorporates directly in the dynamics…
We present here some recent results concerning scalar-tensor Dark Energy models. These models are very interesting in many respects: they allow for a consistent phantom phase, the growth of matter perturbations is modified. Using a…
Dark energy away from a cosmological constant $\Lambda$ -- like early universe inflation that ends -- can be understood in terms of well defined physical behaviors. These guide dark energy into thawing or freezing classes, with $w_0$--$w_a$…
Simple scalar field cosmological models are considered describing gravity assisted crossing of the phantom divide line. This crossing or (de)-phantomization characterized by the change of the sign of the kinetic term of the scalar field is…
The first and second year results of DESI provide consistent evidence that dark energy may not be quantum vacuum energy ($\Lambda$). If true, this would be an extraordinary development in the 25-year quest to understand cosmic acceleration.…
Sign-switching dark energy provides a novel mechanism for modifying the late-time expansion history of the Universe without invoking additional fields or finely tuned initial conditions. In this work, we investigate a class of…
Quintessence scalar fields are a natural candidate for evolving dark energy. Unlike the phenomenological $w_0w_a$ parameterization of the dark energy equation of state, they cannot accommodate the phantom regime of dark energy $w(z) < -1$,…
In this work, we present a cosmological model in which the cosmological constant term is replaced by the Kretschmann scalar at the level of the action. In this way, it becomes possible to implement a model of dynamical dark energy. After…
