Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the late-time accelerated universe evolution in a flat, homogeneous and isotropic model in the context of [Formula: see text] gravity, where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are non-metricity scalar and trace of energy–momentum tensor, respectively. The scale factor, by construction, yields ekpyrotic contraction era followed by a non-singular bounce. The expanding era of the universe yields late-time dark energy era preceded by matter-dominating decelerating era. The model unifies an ekpyrotic, non-singular bounce with the present dark energy-dominated epoch. The model parameters in the functional form of [Formula: see text] gravity affect the dynamical evolution of the equation of state (EoS) parameter. The theoretical value of EoS parameter is found to be [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text], respectively, and it lies in range of the estimated value of EoS parameter from the Planck+SNe+BAO observational data. Different aspects of this bouncing model including behavior of geometrical and physical quantities along with energy conditions have been discussed in detail.
