The goal of this paper is to discuss phase space analysis of some interacting Chaplygin gas models in General Relativity. Chaplygin gas is one of the fluids actively considered in modern cosmology due to the fact that it is a joint model of…
The discovery of the quasar, the APM 08279+5255 at z = 3.91 whose age is 2-3 Gyr has once again led to ``age crisis''. The noticeable fact about this object is that it cannot be accommodated in a universe with $\Omega_m = 0.27$, currently…
Unified generalized Chaplygin gas models assuming an interaction between dark energy and dark matter fluids have been previously proposed. Following these ideas, we consider a particular relation between dark densities, which allows the…
We propose to use relative galaxy ages as a means of constraining cosmological parameters. By measuring the age difference between two ensembles of old galaxies at somewhat different redshifts, one could determine the derivative of redshift…
In the paper, we consider two models in which dark energy is coupled with either dust matter or dark matter, and discuss the conditions that allow more time for structure formation to take place at high redshifts. These models are expected…
In a recent striking discovery, Dunlop {\bf \it et al} observed a galaxy at redshift z=1.55 with an estimated age of 3.5 Gyr. This is incompatible with age estimates for a flat matter dominated universe unless the Hubble constant is less…
New limits on the cosmic equation of state are derived from age measurements of three recently reported old high redshift galaxies (OHRG). The results are based on a flat FRW type cosmological model driven by nonrelativistic matter plus a…
The generalized Chaplygin gas model represents an attempt to unify dark matter and dark energy. It is characterized by a fluid with an equation of state $p = - A/\rho^\alpha$. It can be obtained from a generalization of the DBI action for a…
In this paper, we study two different models of dark energy based on Chaplygin gas equation of state. The first model is the variable modified Chaplygin gas while the second one is the extended Chaplygin gas. Both models are considered in…
We investigate observational constraints on the generalized Chaplygin gas (GCG) model as the unification of dark matter and dark energy from the latest observational data: the Union SNe Ia data, the observational Hubble data, the SDSS…
We consider a universe filled by a modified generalized Chaplygin gas together with a pressureless dark matter component. We get a thermodynamical interpretation for the modified generalized Chaplygin gas confined to the apparent horizon of…
In this work, we consider the interacting agegraphic dark energy models with entropy correction terms due to loop quantum gravity. We study the correspondence between the Chaplygin gas energy density with the interacting entropy-corrected…
Inspired by recent developments in particle physics, the so-called brane world cosmology seems to provide an alternative explanation for the present dark energy problem. In this paper, we use the estimated age of high-$z$ objects to…
In this paper, a modified Chaplygin gas model of unifying dark energy and dark matter with exotic equation of state $p=B\rho-\frac{A}{\rho^{\alpha}}$ which can also explain the recent accelerated expansion of the universe is investigated by…
In this paper, we undertake a unified study of background dynamics and cosmological perturbations in the presence of the Chaplygin gas. This is done by first constraining the background cosmological parameters of different Chaplygin gas…
We investigate the unification scenario provided by the generalised Chaplygin gas model (a perfect fluid characterized by an equation of state p = -A/\rho^{\alpha}). Our concerns lie with a possible tension existing between background…
We present a scalar-field formulation of the generalized Chaplygin gas (GCG) and modified Chaplygin gas (MCG) models, in which the cosmic fluid dynamics are reproduced by canonical Lagrangians with analytically derived energy density…
Dark energy is the invisible fuel that seems to drive the current acceleration of the Universe. Its presence, which is inferred from an impressive convergence of high-quality observational results along with some apparently sucessful…
We review the essential features of the Chaplygin gas cosmological models and provide some examples of appearance of the Chaplygin gas equation of state in modern physics. A possible theoretical basis for the Chaplygin gas in cosmology is…
A modified Chaplygin gas model (MCG), $\rho_{MCG}/\rho_{MCG0}=[B_{s}+(1-B_{s})a^{-3(1+B)(1+\alpha)}]^{1/(1+\alpha)}$, as a unified dark matter model and dark energy model is constrained by using current available cosmic observational data…
