In this paper, we have considered flat Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker metric in the framework of perfect fluid models and modified $f(G)$ gravity (where $G$ is the Gauss Bonnet invariant). Particularly, we have considered…
Energy conditions can play an important role in defining the cosmological evolution. Specifically acceleration/deceleration of cosmic fluid, as well as the emergence of Big Rip singularities, can be related to the constraints imposed by the…
The energy conditions play an important role in the description of some important properties of the Universe, including the current accelerating expansion phase and the possible recent phase of super-acceleration. In a recent work we have…
In this manuscript, we consider the extension of the Hilbert-Einstein action to analyze several interesting features of the theory. More specifically, the Lagrangian $f(R)$ is replaced by $f(R, L_m)$ in action, where $R$ is the Ricci…
The energy conditions and the Dolgov-Kawasaki criterion in generalized $f(R)$ gravity with arbitrary coupling between matter and geometry are derived in this paper, which are quite general and can degenerate to the well-known energy…
Energy conditions are attempts to summarise the properties of realistic descriptions of matter via constraints on the energy-momentum tensor. This is, for example, useful when one wants to understand the types of spacetime geometry that can…
Here, an accelerated phantom model for the late universe is explored, which is free from future singularity. It is interseting to see that this model exhibits strong curvature for all time in future, unlike models with `big-rip singularity'…
The singularity and inflationary problems have posed significant challenges for understanding the universe's origin and evolution. Bouncing cosmology has emerged as a promising alternative to standard cosmological models, offering a…
This paper is devoted to study the energy conditions in F(R,T) gravity for FRW universe with perfect fluid, where $R$ is the Ricci scalar and $T$ is the torsion scalar. We construct the general energy conditions in this theory and reduce…
This paper studies the viable regions of some cosmic models in a higher derivative $f(R,\square R, T)$ theory with the help of energy conditions (where $R$ and $T$ are the Ricci scalar, and trace of energy momentum tensor, respectively).…
The recently proposed $f(Q, T)$ gravity (Xu et al. Eur. Phys. J. C \textbf{79} (2019) 708) is an extension of the symmetric teleparallel gravity. The gravitational action $L$ is given by an arbitrary function $f$ of the non-metricity $Q$…
In the late 1990's, observations of 93 Type Ia supernovae were analysed in the framework of the FLRW cosmology assuming these to be `standard(isable) candles'. It was thus inferred that the Hubble expansion rate is accelerating as if driven…
We construct the energy conditions for the recently proposed $f(R,L,T)$ gravity theory, for which $f$ is a generic function of the Ricci scalar $R$, matter lagrangian density $L$ and trace of the energy-momentum tensor $T$. We analyse two…
Modified gravity is one of the most favorable candidates for explaining the current accelerating expansion of the Universe. In this regard, we study the viability of an alternative gravitational theory, namely $f(R,G)$, by imposing energy…
The recent observations of type Ia supernovae strongly support that the universe is accelerating now and decelerated in the recent past. This may be the evidence of the breakdown of the standard Friemann equation. We consider a general…
There has been recent interest in the cosmological consequences of energy-momentum-powered gravity models, in which the matter side of Einstein's equations includes a term proportional to some power, $n$, of the energy-momentum tensor, in…
A complete theory of gravity impels us to go beyond Einstein's General Relativity. One promising approach lies in a new class of teleparallel theory of gravity named $f(Q)$, where the nonmetricity $Q$ is responsible for the gravitational…
