In this paper, the Bianchi type-I space-time with perfect fluid as matter content in the framework of f(Q) gravity is studied. Exact solutions are found using the anisotropic property of space-time for volumetric hybrid expansion. Cosmological parameters for the linear form of non-metricity scalar are discussed and compared with Hubble measurements. The model parameters are constrained and the stability and validity of the model are tested.
In this paper, we consider the Bianchi type-I space-time with perfect fluid as matter content of the Universe in the framework of f(Q) gravity (where Q is the non-metricity scalar) recently proposed by Jimenez et al. (2018). We find exact solutions of the field equations using the anisotropic property of space-time for volumetric hybrid expansion. The cosmological parameters for the linear form of non-metricity scalar i.e. f (Q) = alpha Q + beta (where alpha and beta are free model parameters) are discussed and compared with recent Hubble measurements. Also, we have obtained the best fitting values of the model parameters k, n and H-0 by constraining our model with updated Hubble datasets consisting of 57 data points (31 (DA) and 26 (BAO+other)) along with also examined the stability of the model and test its validity by energy conditions.(C) 2022 Elsevier B.V.

Observational constraints in accelerated emergent f(Q) gravity model

S. H. Shekh, A. Bouali, G. Mustafa, A. Pradhan, F. Javed

Summary: In this study, the f(Q) gravity theory is used to analyze the rapid expansion of the Universe. The non-metricity scalar Q is the key parameter characterizing the gravitational interaction. By considering various observational data, we evaluate the model parameters and find that the Universe is currently in the acceleration phase. Additionally, we study different f(Q) gravity models and investigate their implications for cosmological parameters.

Observational Constraints on F(T,TG) Gravity with Hubble's Parametrization

Salim Harun Shekh, Nurgissa Myrzakulov, Anirudh Pradhan, Assem Mussatayeva

Summary: In this study, the authors work on the parametrization approach towards Hubble's parameter in the frame of modified teleparallel Gauss-Bonnet gravity. They investigate the cosmological history from early-time inflation to late-time acceleration expansion using the torsion invariant T and the teleparallel equivalent of the Gauss-Bonnet term T-G. A transition scenario from a decelerating phase to an accelerating phase of cosmic evolution has been detected.

Quintessence like behavior of symmetric teleparallel dark energy: Linear and nonlinear model

A. Hanin, M. Koussour, Z. Sakhi, M. Bennai

Summary: In this paper, we consider the modified symmetric teleparallel theory of gravity or f(Q) gravity, where Q represents the nonmetricity scalar. We discuss the behavior of various cosmographic and cosmological parameters under the assumption of a power-law form for the function f(Q) and the deceleration parameter form as a divergence-free parametrization. The results suggest that our cosmological f(Q) models behave like quintessence dark energy.

Cosmic jerk parameter in symmetric teleparallel cosmology

M. Koussour, S. Dahmani, M. Bennai, T. Ouali

Summary: In this paper, the authors examined a modified symmetric teleparallel gravity theory where the gravitational Lagrangian is defined by an arbitrary function of a non-metricity scalar Q. They used data from OHD and Pantheon+ datasets to constrain the model parameters and found that the obtained results were consistent with observation values. They studied the physical behavior of cosmological parameters and confirmed that the models described the current acceleration of the Universe's expansion. The EoS parameter indicated that the cosmological fluid behaved like a quintessence dark energy model.

Thermodynamical aspects of Bianchi type-I Universe in quadratic form of f (Q) gravity and observational constraints

M. Koussour, S. H. Shekh, M. Govender, M. Bennai

Summary: In this paper, the Bianchi type-I cosmological model is discussed in the framework of symmetric teleparallel gravity, specifically f(Q) gravity where the non-metricity term Q accounts for the gravitational interaction. A particular form of the f(Q) function, f(Q) = lambda Qn, is considered, with lambda and n being the dynamical model parameters. This choice leads to a hybrid scale factor that describes the relationship between cosmic time and redshift, representing a Lambda CDM model of the Universe with a transition from deceleration to acceleration. The best values for the model parameters, alpha and beta, are estimated based on current observational datasets.

Impact of dark energy on the equation of state in light of the latest cosmological data

N. Myrzakulov, M. Koussour, Alnadhief H. A. Alfedeel, E. Hassan

Summary: We reconstruct the effective equation of state (EoS) in a homogeneous and isotropic universe composed of matter and dark energy using a dataset of cosmic chronometer data points, baryon acoustic oscillation data points, and type Ia supernova data points. The calculated cosmological parameters show behavior consistent with an accelerated universe scenario.

Quasinormal modes of black holes in f(Q) gravity

Dhruba Jyoti Gogoi, Ali Ovgun, M. Koussour

Summary: In this work, we studied the quasinormal modes of a black hole in f(Q) Sigma nin f(Q) gravity using the Bernstein spectral method, and validated the method with the Pade averaged higher-order WKB approximation method. We considered scalar and electromagnetic perturbations in the black hole spacetime and obtained the corresponding quasinormal modes. We found that the quasinormal frequencies in scalar perturbation are higher than those in electromagnetic perturbation for a non-vanishing nonmetricity scalar Q0. However, the damping rate of gravitational waves is higher for electromagnetic perturbation. Time domain profiles for both types of perturbations were also investigated to confirm the quasinormal mode behavior.

Observational constraints on a logarithmic scalar field dark energy model and black hole mass evolution in the Universe

Dan Wang, M. Koussour, Adnan Malik, N. Myrzakulov, G. Mustafa

Summary: In this study, a logarithmic parametrization form of energy density for scalar field dark energy is proposed within the framework of the standard theory of gravity, which allows for a necessary transition from decelerated to accelerated behavior of the Universe. The model is constrained by observational data, including cosmic chronometers datasets, baryonic acoustic oscillation datasets, and supernovae datasets, with two parameters alpha and ss. The combined analysis of these datasets confirms a transition redshift of z(tr) = 0.79(-0.02)(+0.02), consistent with recent observations. The study also provides constraints on the matter parameter density value and the present value of the Hubble parameter.

A new Om(z) diagnostic of dark energy in general relativity theory

N. Myrzakulov, M. Koussour, Dhruba Jyoti Gogoi

Summary: In this paper, a new parametrization of dark energy based on the Om(z) diagnostic tool behavior is proposed. A functional form of the Om(z) is investigated to predict phantom and quintessence, the popular dark energy dynamical models. The famous cosmological constant is also found for specific values of the model's parameters. The Markov Chain Monte Carlo approach is employed to constrain the cosmological model using Hubble, Pantheon samples, and BAO datasets. Finally, observational constraints are used to investigate the characteristics of dark energy evolution and compare the findings to cosmological predictions.

The evolution of energy density, pressure, and deceleration parameter for these models are further studied to conclude the accelerating behavior of the Universe.

Anisotropic background for two fluids: Matter and holographic dark energy

M. Koussour, M. Bennai

Summary: We investigate a spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi type-I space-time, considering two fluids (matter and holographic dark energy) as the content of the Universe, within the framework of general relativity. By choosing a hyperbolic function as the scale factor and fixing the parameters gamma > 0 and n > 1, we obtain exact solutions to Einstein's field equations. Our cosmological model exhibits an early deceleration phase followed by the current observed acceleration phase. The anisotropic parameter and other physical parameters are also discussed, and the results are consistent with recent astronomical observations.
