Constraints on the interacting holographic dark energy model

We examined the interacting holographic dark energy model in a universe with spatial curvature. Using the near-flatness condition and requiring that the universe is experiencing an accelerated expansion, we have constrained the parameter space of the model and found that the model can accommodate a transition of the dark energy from ωD>−1${\omega }_D>-1$ to ωD<−1${\omega }_D<-1$.     

Hubble parameter data constraints on dark energy

We use Hubble parameter versus redshift data from Stern et al. (2010) [1] and Gaztañaga et al. (2009) [2] to place constraints on model parameters of constant and time-evolving dark energy cosmological models. These constraints are consistent with (through not as restrictive as) those derived from supernova Type Ia magnitude-redshift data. However, they are more restrictive than those derived from galaxy cluster angular diameter distance, and comparable with those from gamma-ray burst and lookback time data. A joint analysis of the Hubble parameter data with more restrictive baryon acoustic oscillation peak length scale and supernova Type Ia apparent magnitude data favors a spatially-flat cosmological model currently dominated by a time-independent cosmological constant but does not exclude time-varying dark energy.     

Modified Chaplygin gas as an interacting holographic dark energy model

The modified Chaplygin gas (MCG) as an interacting model of holographic dark energy in which dark energy and dark matter are coupled together is investigated in this paper. Concretely, by studying the evolutions of related cosmological quantities such as density parameter Ω, equation of state w, deceleration parameter q and transition redshift zT, we find the evolution of the universe is from deceleration to acceleration, their present values are consistent with the latest observations, and the equation of state of holographic dark energy can cross the phantom divide w = -1. Furthermore, we put emphasis upon the geometrical diagnostics for our model, i.e., the statefinder and Om diagnostics. By illustrating the evolutionary trajectories in r - s, r - q, w -w and Om planes, we find that the holographic constant c and the coupling constant b play very important roles in the holographic dark energy (HDE) model. In addition, we also plot the LCDM horizontal lines in Om diagrams, and show the discrimination between the HDE and LCDM models.     

Thermodynamical interpretation of the interacting holographic dark energy model in a non-flat universe

Motivated by the recent work of Wang, Lin, Pavon, and Abdalla [B. Wang, C.Y. Lin, D. Pavon, E. Abdalla, Phys. Lett. B 662 (2008) 1, arXiv: 0711.2214 [hep-th]], we generalize their work to the non-flat case. In particular, we provide a thermodynamical interpretation for the holographic dark energy model in a non-flat universe. For this case, the characteristic length is no more the radius of the event horizon (RE$R_E$) but the event horizon radius as measured from the sphere of the horizon (L  ). Furthermore, when interaction between the dark components of the holographic dark energy model in the non-flat universe is present its thermodynamical interpretation changes by a stable thermal fluctuation. A relation between the interaction term of the dark components and this thermal fluctuation is obtained. In the limiting case of a flat universe, i.e. k=0$k=0$, all results given in [B. Wang, C.Y. Lin, D. Pavon, E. Abdalla, Phys. Lett. B 662 (2008) 1, arXiv: 0711.2214 [hep-th]] are obtained.     

Generalized holographic dark energy model

In this paper, the model of the holographic Chaplygin gas has been extended to two general cases: first the case of a modified variable Chaplygin gas and second the case of the viscous generalized Chaplygin gas. The dynamics of the model is expressed by the use of scalar fields and scalar potentials.     

Resolving Hubble tension with quintom dark energy model

Recent low-redshift observations have yielded the present-time Hubble parameter value H0=74 kms^-1 Mpc^-1.This value is approximately 10%higher than the predicted value of Ho=67.4 kms^-1 Mpc^-1,based on Planck's observations of the Cosmic Microwave Background radiatio n(CMB)and the AC DM model.Phenomenologically,we show that,by adding an extra component,X,with negative density to the Friedmann equation,it can address the Hubble tension without changing the Planck's constraint on the matter and dark energy densities.To achieve a sufficiently small extra negative density,its equation-of-state parameter must satisfy 1/3 ≤ wx ≤ 1.We propose a quintom model of two scalar fields that realizes this condition and potentially alleviate the Hubble tension.One scalar field acts as a quintessence,while another "Wphantom" scalar con formally couples to matter such that a viable cosmological scenario is achieved.The model only depends on two parameters,心and 6,which represent the rolling tendency of the self-interacting potential of the quintessenee and the strength of the conformal phantom-matter coupling,respectively.The toy quintom model with H0=73.4 kms^-1 Mpc^-1(Quintom I)yields a good Supernovae-Ia luminosity fit and acceptable rBAO fit but slightly small acoustic multipole lA=285.54.A full parameter scan revealed that the quintom model was superior to the ACDM model in certain regions of the parameter space,0.02<δ<0.10,Ω(0)m<0.31,while significantly alleviating the Hubble tension,although it is not completely resolved.A benchmark quintom model.Quintom II,is presented as an example.     

Power-Law entropy corrected holographic dark energy model

Among various scenarios to explain the acceleration of the universe expansion, the holographic dark energy (HDE) model has got a lot of enthusiasm recently. In the derivation of holographic energy density, the area relation of the black hole entropy plays a crucial role. Indeed, the power-law corrections to entropy appear in dealing with the entanglement of quantum fields in and out the horizon. Inspired by the power-law corrected entropy, we propose the so-called “power-law entropy-corrected holographic dark energy” (PLECHDE) in this Letter. We investigate the cosmological implications of this model and calculate some relevant cosmological parameters and their evolution. We also briefly study the so-called “power-law entropy-corrected agegraphic dark energy” (PLECADE).     

Inflation via logarithmic entropy-corrected holographic dark energy model

We study the inflation in terms of the logarithmic entropy-corrected holographic dark energy (LECHDE) model with future event horizon, particle horizon, and Hubble horizon cut-offs, and we compare the results with those obtained in the study of inflation by the holographic dark energy HDE model. In comparison, the spectrum of primordial scalar power spectrum in the LECHDE model becomes redder than the spectrum in the HDE model. Moreover, the consistency with the observational data in the LECHDE model of inflation constrains the reheating temperature and Hubble parameter by one parameter of holographic dark energy and two new parameters of logarithmic corrections.     

Breaking parameter degeneracy in interacting dark energy models from observations

We study the interacting dark energy model with time varying dark energy equation of state. We examine the stability in the perturbation formalism and the degeneracy among the coupling between dark sectors, the time-dependent dark energy equation of state and dark matter abundance in the cosmic microwave background radiation. Further we discuss the possible ways to break such degeneracy by doing global fitting using the latest observational data and we get a tight constraint on the interaction between dark sectors.     

Revisiting the interacting model of new agegraphic dark energy

In this paper,a new version of the interacting model of new agegraphic dark energy(INADE)is proposed and analyzed in detail.The interaction between dark energy and dark matter is reconsidered.The interaction term Q=bH0ραdeρ1αdm is adopted,which abandons the Hubble expansion rate H and involves bothρde andρdm.Moreover,the new initial condition for the agegraphic dark energy is used,which solves the problem of accommodating baryon matter and radiation in the model.The solution of the model can be given using an iterative algorithm.A concrete example for the calculation of the model is given.Furthermore,the model is constrained by using the combined Planck data(Planck+BAO+SNIa+H0)and the combined WMAP-9 data(WMAP+BAO+SNIa+H0).Three typical cases are considered:(A)Q=bH0ρde,(B)Q=bH0√ρdeρdm,and(C)Q=bH0ρdm,which correspond toα=1,1/2,and 0,respectively.The departures of the models from theΛCDM model are measured by the BIC and AIC values.It is shown that the INADE model is better than the NADE model in the fit,and the INADE(A)model is the best in fitting data among the three cases.     

Cosmic age problem revisited in the holographic dark energy model

Because of an old quasar APM 08279+5255$08279+5255$ at z=3.91$z=3.91$, some dark energy models face the challenge of the cosmic age problem. It has been shown by Wei and Zhang [H. Wei, S.N. Zhang, Phys. Rev. D 76 (2007) 063003, arXiv:0707.2129 [astro-ph]] that the holographic dark energy model is also troubled with such a cosmic age problem. In order to accommodate this old quasar and solve the age problem, we propose in this Letter to consider the interacting holographic dark energy in a non-flat universe. We show that the cosmic age problem can be eliminated when the interaction and spatial curvature are both involved in the holographic dark energy model.     

Exploring interacting holographic dark energy in a perturbed universe with parameterized post-Friedmann approach

The model of holographic dark energy in which dark energy interacts with dark matter is investigated in this paper. In particular, we consider the interacting holographic dark energy model in the context of a perturbed universe, which was never investigated in the literature. To avoid the large-scale instability problem in the interacting dark energy cosmology, we employ the generalized version of the parameterized post-Friedmann approach to treating the dark energy perturbations in the model. We use the current observational data to constrain the model. Since the cosmological perturbations are considered in the model, we can then employ the redshift-space distortions (RSD) measurements to constrain the model, in addition to the use of the measurements of expansion history, which has never been done in the literature. We find that, for both the cases with \(Q=\beta H\rho _\mathrm{c}\) and with \(Q=\beta H_0\rho _\mathrm{c}\), the interacting holographic dark energy model is more favored by the current data, compared to the holographic dark energy model without interaction. It is also found that, with the help of the RSD data, a positive coupling \(\beta \) can be detected at the \(2.95\sigma \) statistical significance for the case of \(Q=\beta H_0\rho _\mathrm{c}\).     

An interacting dark energy model in a non-flat universe

In this paper, an interacting dark energy model in a non-flat universe is studied, with taking interaction form $C=\alpha H\rho _{de}$ C = α H ρ d e . And in this study a property for the mysterious dark energy is aforehand assumed, i.e. its equation of state $w_{\Lambda }=-1$ w Λ = - 1 . After several derivations, a power-law form of dark energy density is obtained $\rho _{\Lambda } \propto a^{-\alpha }$ ρ Λ ∝ a - α , here $a$ a is the cosmic scale factor, $\alpha $ α is a constant parameter introducing to describe the interaction strength and the evolution of dark energy. By comparing with the current cosmic observations, the combined constraints on the parameter $\alpha $ α is investigated in a non-flat universe. For the used data they include: the Union2 data of type Ia supernova, the Hubble data at different redshifts including several new published datapoints, the baryon acoustic oscillation data, the cosmic microwave background data, and the observational data from cluster X-ray gas mass fraction. The constraint results on model parameters are $\Omega _{K}=0.0024\,(\pm 0.0053)^{+0.0052+0.0105}_{-0.0052-0.0103}, \alpha =-0.030\,(\pm 0.042)^{+0.041+0.079}_{-0.042-0.085}$ Ω K = 0.0024 ( ± 0.0053 ) - 0.0052 - 0.0103 + 0.0052 + 0.0105 , α = - 0.030 ( ± 0.042 ) - 0.042 - 0.085 + 0.041 + 0.079 and $\Omega _{0m}=0.282\,(\pm 0.011)^{+0.011+0.023}_{-0.011-0.022}$ Ω 0 m = 0.282 ( ± 0.011 ) - 0.011 - 0.022 + 0.011 + 0.023 . According to the constraint results, it is shown that small constraint values of $\alpha $ α indicate that the strength of interaction is weak, and at $1\sigma $ 1 σ confidence level the non-interacting cosmological constant model can not be excluded.
