Statefinder diagnostic for a generalized Proca model

Abstract

In this paper, we apply the statefinder diagnostic on the cosmology in the framework of the generalized Proca theories with derivative self-interactions possessing three propagating physical degrees of freedom. We discuss the evolving trajectories of the statefinder parameters with the parameter n of this model recently fitted as n = 0.254 and n = 0.16 by use of the current observational data and find that some typical characteristic of the evolution of statefinder parameters makes the model distinguishable between n = 0.254 case and n = 0.16 case and also from other dark energy models.
