abstract
In dark energy models of scalar-field coupled to a barotropic perfect fluid, the existence of cosmological scaling solutions restricts the Lagrangian of the field $\vp$ to $p=X g(Xe^{\lambda \vp})$, where $X=-g^{\mu\nu} \partial_\mu \vp \partial_\nu \vp /2$, $\lambda$ is a constant and $g$ is an arbitrary function. We derive general evolution equations in an autonomous form for this Lagrangian and investigate the stability of fixed points for several different dark energy models--(i) ordinary (phantom) field, (ii) dilatonic ghost condensate, and (iii) (phantom) tachyon. We find the existence of scalar-field dominant fixed points ($\Omega_\vp=1$) with an accelerated expansion in all models irrespective of the presence of the coupling $Q$ between dark energy and dark matter. These fixed points are always classically stable for a phantom field, implying that the universe is eventually dominated by the energy density of a scalar field if phantom is responsible for dark energy. When the equation of state $w_\vp$ for the field $\vp$ is larger than -1, we find that scaling solutions are stable if the scalar-field dominant solution is unstable, and vice versa. Therefore in this case the final attractor is either a scaling solution with constant $\Omega_\vp$ satisfying $0<\Omega_\vp<1$ or a scalar-field dominant solution with $\Omega_\vp=1$.

Kinetic coupled tachyon: A dynamical system analysis
A kinetically coupled tachyon dark energy model admits a new stable scaling attractor for a range of coupling and potential parameters, providing a mechanism to keep dark energy and dark matter densities comparable.

Accelerating scaling solutions from dark matter particle creation
Accelerating scaling attractors without dark energy appear only when the interaction is controlled by DM density and energy flows from DM to a barotropic fluid.

Dark Energy Is Not That Into You: Variable Couplings after DESI DR2 BAO
With DESI DR2 data, one interacting dark sector model with a time-dependent coupling shows a nonzero coupling at more than 95% CL, but Bayesian evidence still favors Lambda-CDM.

The model-independent degeneracy-breaking point in cosmological models with interacting Dark Energy and Dark Matter
In interacting dark energy models, the interaction term becomes independent of the constant dark energy equation of state at a specific redshift (about z=1.4), giving a point where the interaction can be observed with...

Bouncing Cosmology in Interacting Scalar-Torsion Gravity
Two interacting scalar-torsion models are shown, by tuned numerical construction, to host a matter bounce with phantom equation of state and NEC violation at the bounce epoch.
