abstract

The issues of quintessence and cosmic acceleration can be discussed in the framework of higher order theories of gravity. We can define effective pressure and energy density directly connected to the Ricci scalar of curvature of a generic fourth order theory and then ask for the conditions to get an accelerated expansion. Exact accelerated expanding solutions can be achieved for several fourth order theories so that we get an alternative scheme to the standard quintessence scalar field, minimally coupled to gravity, usually adopted. We discuss also conformal transformations in order to see the links of quintessence between the Jordan and Einstein frames.

An Interplay Between Fractional Calculus and Holographic Dark Energy

gr-qc · 2026-06-21 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Introduces Fractional Holographic Dark Energy (FHDE) via fractionally corrected entropy from a modified Wheeler-DeWitt equation and studies its late-time cosmology, field reconstructions, and extensions to modified gravity theories.

Cosmological Dynamics of a Non-Canonical Generalised Brans-Dicke Theory

gr-qc · 2026-05-07 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

A non-canonical generalized Brans-Dicke theory admits background cosmological solutions matching Lambda CDM characteristics for constant, power-law, and exponential potentials, with dynamics distinct from other scalar-tensor models.

The Quintom theory of dark energy after DESI DR2

astro-ph.CO · 2025-05-30 · unverdicted · novelty 3.0

This review traces the history of dynamical dark energy, presents the no-go theorem against single-field crossing of w = -1, and surveys viable Quintom constructions including multi-field models and modified gravity in light of DESI DR2 hints.

Wormhole Modeling Supported by Non-Exotic Matter

gr-qc · 2019-07-17 · unverdicted · novelty 3.0

Applies the f(R) = R - μ Rc (R/Rc)^p model and shape function b(r) = r log(r+1)/log(r0+1) to Morris-Thorne wormholes and analyzes energy conditions for non-exotic matter support.

A short review on Quintom dark energy theory

astro-ph.CO · 2026-05-31 · conditional · novelty 2.0

A review arguing that current DESI/DES data favor Quintom-B dark energy, where the equation of state crosses w=-1 from below to above, with applications to bounces and CMB birefringence.
