Quintessence scalar field model in Weyl-type f(Q, T) gravity with wD – w′D analysis

Abstract

In the present study, we explore the dynamical characteristics of the quintessence cosmological model in Weyl-type f( Q, T) gravity. Here, T represents the trace of the matter energy–momentum tensor, and Q symbolizes the non-metricity tensor. We propose a solution to the field equation using the specific parametrization in the form q = β z(1 + z)−1 + α, which depicts the necessary transition of cosmos from decelerating era to the current accelerating scenario. The values of model parameters are estimated as H0 = 69.8 ± 1.2, α = −0.64 ± 0.027, and β = 1.549 ± 0.079 using the Markov Chain Monte Carlo analysis and limiting the model with a joint dataset of Pantheon, baryon acoustic oscillation, and cosmic chronometer. We discuss the cosmic behavior of many features of the derived model like EoS parameters, energy density, and cosmic pressure. Further, we have also explored the cosmological behavior of the quintessence model in Weyl f( Q, T) gravity. We have described the cosmic behavior of the model by [Formula: see text] analysis. The diagnosis of the model is also performed using statefinders and jerk parameters. In the end, we have discussed the energy conditions for the proposed model.
