Abstract

In this paper, we have derived the general solutions of the field equations of the Scalar–Tensor theory of gravitation, proposed by Brans and Dicke (1961) within the framework of a locally rotationally symmetric (LRS) metric. We have discussed the anisotropic dark energy models by assuming the time-dependent general scale factor [Formula: see text]. Further, we have discussed the physical and geometric behaviors of the model using different forms of the scale factors. We have also performed a comparative study of the results obtained in various cases. We have observed that the solutions obtained using Hybrid Expansion Law (HEL) are more consistent with recent observations as compared to the rest. Stability of the solutions is also compared using metric perturbations.
