Bianchi type-V solutions with varying G and Λ: The general case

Abstract

The homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi type-V cosmological model with variable gravitational and cosmological “constants” with a general (nonstiff) perfect fluid is investigated. The Einstein field equations (EFEs) are numerically integrated with the fourth-order Runge–Kutta method for different values of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] parameters of quantum fields in a curved and expanding background. Three realistic models, namely matter, radiation and phantom dark energy models are also discussed. In all these models, it was found that the cosmological “constant” decreases with time, whereas the gravitational “constant” increases over time. It is shown that the universe in these models becomes isotropic at late times.
