In this article we will consider several phenomenological models for the Universe with varying $G$ and $\Lambda(t)$, where $G$ is the gravitational "constant" and $\Lambda(t)$ is a varying cosmological "constant". Two-component fluid model…
We have shown that the phenomenological models with a cosmological constant of the type $\Lambda=\beta(\frac{\ddot R}{R})$ and $\Lambda=3\alpha H^2$, where $R$ is the scale factor of the universe and $H$ is the Hubble constant, are…
We investigate Dark Energy by associating it with vacuum energy or Cosmological constant ${\Lambda}$ which is taken to be dynamic in nature. Our approach is phenomenological and falls within the domain of variable-$\Lambda$ Cosmology.…
The idea of a variable dark energy has been entertained many times in the literature and from many different points of view. Quintessence is just a popular way to implement this idea in recent times, but so far with little success. Another…
In this paper, a cosmological model of the Universe is presented in $f(Q,T)$ gravity and the parameters are constrained by cosmological data sets. Initially, a generalised form of $f(Q,T)$ model is used as $f(Q,T)=-\lambda_{1}…
We discussed the dynamics of cosmological models in which the cosmological constant term is a time dependent function through the scale factor $a(t)$, Hubble function $H(t)$, Ricci scalar $R(t)$ and scalar field $\phi(t)$. We considered…
Phantom energy can be visualized as a scalar field with a (non-canonical) negative kinetic energy term. We use the dynamical system formalism to study the attractor behavior of a cosmological model containing a phantom scalar field $\phi$…
