A Bianchi type-II dark-energy cosmology with a decaying Λ-term in the Brans–Dicke theory of gravity

详细

We present a sequence of anisotropic Bianchi type-II dark-energy models in the framework of the Brans–Dicke theory of gravity with a variable equation of state (EoS) parameter and a constant deceleration parameter. We use power-law relations between the scalar field φ and the scale factor A and between the average Hubble parameter H and the average scale factor A to obtain most of the analytic solutions. The dark-energy EoS parameter ω and its range admitted by the models agrees well with the most recent observational data. It has been observed that the cosmological constant Λ is decreasing with time, which is consistent with recent cosmological observations. We study the dynamical stability and physical features of the models.
