Abstract

In this paper, we have studied Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) cosmological model with quadratic equation of state and cosmological constant in the presence of perfect fluid source in f ( R, T ) gravity. To obtain an exact solution of the field equations of the theory, we have used quadratic equation of state and time dependent deceleration parameter q ( t ). The physical and geometrical behavior of the model is also discussed.

Highlights

  • The simplest and the most elegant assumption of the universe being homogeneous and isotropic is supported by the observational evidences in the large scale structure (LSS) [1] and cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR) [2]

  • They have analyzed the effects of quadratic equation of state in anisotropic homogeneous and inhomogeneous cosmological models in general relativity to isotropize the universe at early times when the initial singularity is approached

  • Inspired by the above investigations and discussions, we have studied FRW space-time cosmological model in f (R,T ) gravity with quadratic equation state and cosmological constant

Summary

Introduction

The simplest and the most elegant assumption of the universe being homogeneous and isotropic is supported by the observational evidences in the large scale structure (LSS) [1] and cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR) [2]. The gravitational Lagrangian is constituted by an arbitrary function of curvature scalar ( ) and the trace ( ) of the energy momentum tensor. They have investigated FRW model to yield the field equations in this theory of f (R,T ) gravity. This equation is nothing but the first term of Taylor expansion of any equation of state of the form p = p(ρ) about ρ = 0 They have analyzed the effects of quadratic equation of state in anisotropic homogeneous and inhomogeneous cosmological models in general relativity to isotropize the universe at early times when the initial singularity is approached. 6. Let us take variation of action (2) with respect to the metric tensor components gμυ , so that we obtain the field equations of f (R,T ) gravity as fR (R,T )Rμν.
