Abstract
In this paper, we reconstruct various solutions for the accelerated universe in the Einstein-Aether theory of gravity. For this purpose, we obtain the effective density and pressure for Einstein-Aether theory. We reconstruct the Einstein-Aether models by comparing its energy density with various newly proposed holographic dark energy models such as Tsallis, Rényi and Sharma-Mittal. For this reconstruction, we use two forms of the scale factor, power-law and exponential forms. The cosmological analysis of the underlying scenario has been done by exploring different cosmological parameters. This includes equation of state parameter, squared speed of sound and evolutionary equation of state parameter via graphical representation. We obtain some favorable results for some values of model parameters
1. Introduction
Nowadays, it is believed that our universe is undergoing an accelerated expansion with the passage of cosmic time. This cosmic expansion has been confirmed through various observational schemes such as supernova type Ia (SNIa) [1,2,3,4] and the cosmic microwave background (CMB) [5,6,7,8,9]. The source behind the expansion of the universe is a mysterious force called dark energy (DE) and its nature is still ambiguous [10,11,12,13]. The current Planck data shows that DE accounts for of the total energy contents of the universe. The first candidate for describing the DE phenomenon is the cosmological constant but it has fine tuning and cosmic coincidence problems. Due to this reason, different DE models as well as theories of gravity with modifications have been suggested. The dynamical DE models include a family of Chaplygin gas as well as holographic DE models, scalar field models such as K-essence, phantom, quintessence, ghost, etc. [14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26].
One of the DE model is the holographic DE (HDE) model which becomes a favorable technique now-a-days to study the DE mystery. This model is established in the framework of holographic principle which corresponds to the area instead of volume for the scaling of the number of degrees of freedom of a system. This model is an interesting effort in exploring the nature of DE in the framework of quantum gravity. In addition, the HDE model gives the relationship between the energy density of quantum fields in vacuum (as the DE candidate) to the cutoffs (infrared and ultraviolet). Cohen et al. [27] provided a very useful result about the expression of the HDE model density which is based on the vacuum energy of the system. The black hole mass should not be overcome by the maximum amount of the vacuum energy. Taking into account the nature of spacetime along with long term gravity, various entropy formalisms have been used to discuss the gravitational and cosmological setups [28,29,30,31,32,33]. Recently, some new HDE models are proposed, like Tsallis HDE (THDE) [31], Rényi HDE model (RHDE) [32] and Sharma-Mittal HDE (SMHDE) [33].
The examples of theories with modification setups include , etc., where R shows the Ricci scalar representing the curvature, T means the torsion scalar, is the trace of the energy-momentum tensor and G goes as the invariant of Gauss–Bonnet [34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45]. For recent reviews in terms of DE problems including modified gravity theories, see, for instance [46,47,48,49,50,51,52]. The Einstein-Aether theory is one of the modified theories of gravity [53,54] and accelerated expansion phenomenon of the universe has also been investigated in this theory [55]. Meng et al. have also discussed the current cosmic acceleration through DE models in this gravity [56,57]. Recently, Pasqua et al. [58] have made versatile studies on cosmic acceleration through various cosmological models in the presence of HDE models.
In the present work, we will develop the Einstein-Aether gravity models in the presence of modified HDE models and well-known scale factors. For these models of modified gravity, we will extract various cosmological parameters. In the next section, we will give a brief review of the Einstein-Aether theory. In Section 3, we present the basic cosmological parameters as well as well-known scale factors. We will discuss the cosmological parameters for modfied HDE models in Section 4, Section 5 and Section 6. In the last section, we will summarize our results.
2. Einstein-Aether Theory
As our universe is full with many of the natural occurring phenomenons. One of them is transfer of light from one place to another and second is how gravity acts. To explain these kinds of phenomenons, many of the physicists were used the concept of Aether in many of the theories. In modern physics, Aether indicates a physical medium that is spread homogeneously at each point of the universe. Hence, it was considered that it is a medium in space that helps light to travel in a vacuum. According to this concept, a particular static frame reference is provided by Aether and everything has absolute relative velocity in this frame. That is suitable for Newtonian dynamics extremely well. But, when Einstein performed different experiments on optics in his theory of relativity, then Einstein rejected this ambiguity. When CMB was introduced, many of the people took it a modern form of Aether. Gasperini has popularized Einstein-Aether theories [59]. This theory is said to be covariant modification of general relativity in which unit time like vector field(aether) breaks the Lorentz Invariance (LI) to examine the gravitational and cosmological effects of dynamical preferred frame [53]. Following is the action of Einstein-Aether theory [60,61].
where represents the Lagrangian density for the vector field and indicates Lagrangian density of matter field. Further, and G indicate determinant of the metric tensor , Ricci scalar and gravitational constant respectively. The Lagrangian density for vector field can be written as
where represents a Lagrangian multiplier, dimensionless constants are denoted by referred as coupling constant parameter and is a tensor of rank one, that is a vector. The function is any arbitrary function of K. We obtain the Einstein field equations from Equation (1) for the Einstein-Aether theory as follows

where p and represent energy density and pressure of the matter respectively. Furthermore, expresses the four-velocity vector of the fluid and given as and is time-like unitary vector and is defined as . Moreover is defined as
where indices show the symmetry.
The Friedmann equations modified by the Einstein-Aether gravity are given as follows
3. Cosmological Parameters
To understand the geometry of the universe, the following are some basic cosmological parameters.
3.1. Equation of State Parameter
In order to categorize the different phases of the evolving universe, the EoS parameter is widely used. In particular, the decelerated and accelerated phases contain DE, DM, radiation dominated eras. This parameter is defined in terms of energy density and pressure p as .
- In the decelerated phase, the radiation era and cold DM era are included.
- The accelerated phase of the universe has following eras: cosmological constant, quintessence and phantom era of the universe.
3.2. Squared Speed of Sound
To examine the behavior of DE models, there is another parameter which is known as squared speed of sound. It is denoted by and is calculated by the following formula
The stability of the model can be checked by this relation. If its graph is showing negative values then we may say that model is unstable and in case of non-negative values of the graph, it represents the stable behavior of the model.
3.3. - Plane
There are different DE models which have different properties. To examine their dynamical behavior, we use - plane, where prime denotes the derivative with respect to and subscript indicates DE scenario. This method was developed by Caldwell and Linder [62] and divides - plane into two parts. One is the freezing part in which evolutionary parameter gives negative behavior for negative EoS parameter, i.e., , while for positive behavior of evolutionary parameter corresponding to negative EoS parameter yields the thawing part () of the evolving universe.
3.4. Scale Factor
The scale factor is the measure of how much the universe has expanded since a given time. It is represented by . Since the latest cosmic observations have shown that the universe is accelerating so . As Einstein-Aether is one of the modified theory which may produce the accelerated expansion of the universe, by using this theory, we can reconstruct various well-known DE models. In order to do this, we take some modified HDE models such as THDE, RHDE and SMHDE models. Since is a function that the Einstein-Aether theory contains, which can be determined by comparing the densities with the above DE models. For this purpose, we use some well-known forms of the scale factor, . We consider two forms of scale factors in terms of power and exponential terms. These are
- (i)
- Power-law form: , where is a constant which indicates the value of scale factor at present-day [63,64]. From this scale factor, we get as follows
- (ii)
- Exponential form: where is a positive constant and lies between 0 and 1. This scale factor gives

The energy density of THDE model is given by [31]
where B is an unknown parameter. Taking into account Hubble radius as IR cutoff L, that is , we have
In order to construct a DE model in the framework of Einstein-Aether gravity with THDE model, we compare the densities of both models, (i.e., ). This yields
which results the following form
Power-law form of scale factor:
Using the expression of along with Equation (19) in (14), we obtain the energy density and pressure as
Using these expressions of energy density and pressure, we find the values of some cosmological parameters in the following. The EoS parameter takes the following form
The derivative of EoS parameter with respect to is given by
We plot the EoS parameter versus z using the relation taking values of constants as and . We plot for three different values of scale factor parameter m as as shown in Figure 1. All the three trajectories represent the phantom behavior of the universe related to the redshift parameter. In Figure 2, we plot plane taking same values of the parameters for . For and 3, the evolving EoS parameter shows negative behavior with respect to negative EoS parameter which indicates the freezing region of the universe. The trajectory of for represents the positive behavior for negative EoS parameter and expresses the evolving universe in thawing region of the universe.

The solution of this equation is given by
Power-law form of the scale factor:
Inserting all the corresponding values into Equations (14) and (15), we get density and pressure of the Einstein-Aether gravity model as follows

In the presence of a free function , we have treated the affective density and pressure as DE. From the modified HDE models such as the THDE, RHDE and SMHDE models, we have formed the unknown function for the Einstein-Aether theory by considering the power-law form and exponential forms of scale factor. We have discussed some cosmological parameters, like the EoS parameter with its evolutionary parameter and squared speed of sound to check the stability of the reconstructed models for this theory.
