Abstract

Viscous generalized Chaplygin gas (GCG) cosmology is discussed, assuming that there is bulk viscosity in the linear barotropic fluid and GCG. wγ = γ - 1 and wg represent the state equation parameters for barotropic fluid and GCG, respectively, in which γ = 1 or [Formula: see text] corresponds to ordinary matter or radiation. The dynamical analysis indicates that the phase [Formula: see text] is a dynamical attractor and the equation of state of GCG approaches it from either wg > -1 or wg < -1 depending on the choice of its initial cosmic density parameter and the ratio of pressure to critical energy density, where τg and τγ are viscosity parameters. Therefore, the equation of state wg will cross the boundary wg = -1 if we choose initial value wg < -1. Furthermore, we show that bulk viscosity coefficients should satisfy inequalities from the point of view of dynamics.
