In the present work, we study the causal structure of spherically symmetric black holes immersed in a Chaplygin-like dark fluid, emphasizing the impact of the fluid parameters on curvature and horizon formation. We show that the spacetime curvature is significantly stronger than in its similar counterpart, the Reissner–Nordström–de Sitter geometry with the same mass and charge, leading to modifications of the internal causal structure. For the presence of horizons, the Chaplygin black hole possesses an upper bound $Q\approx 0.556219M$, which is much smaller than that for Reissner–Nordström spacetime $Q_{critical}=M$ or for the Reissner–Nordström–de Sitter case $Q_{critical}=3M/2\sqrt{2}$, indicating that the black holes immersed in a Chaplygin-like dark fluid reach the extremal regime more easily. We derive a second critical condition for the Chaplygin cosmological parameter B, $B_c{Q}_c=4/3^9$, setting an upper bound on B for a multi-horizon solution. Full article

We obtain universal relations for fluid spheres without rotation made of dark energy assuming the extended Chaplygin gas equation-of-state. After integrating the relevant differential equations, we make a fit to obtain the unknown coefficients of the functions (a) normalized moment of inertia versus dimensionless deformability and (b) normalized moment of inertia versus factor of compactness. We find that the form of the functions does not depend on the details of the underlying equation-of-state. Full article

We investigate some properties of exotic spherical configurations made of dark matter and dark energy. For the former, we adopt a polytropic equation-of-state, while for the latter, we adopt the extended Chaplygin gas equation-of-state. Solving the Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkoff equations, within the two-fluid formalism, we compute the factor of compactness, the mass-to-radius relationships, as well as the tidal Love numbers and dimensionless deformabilities. A comparison between single-fluid objects and two-fluid configurations is made as well. Full article

We determine the k-essence Lagrangian of a relativistic barotropic fluid. The equation of state of the fluid can be specified in different manners depending on whether the pressure is expressed in terms of the energy density (model I), the rest-mass density (model II), or the pseudo rest-mass density for a complex scalar field in the Thomas-Fermi approximation (model III). In the nonrelativistic limit, these three formulations coincide. In the relativistic regime, they lead to different models that we study exhaustively. We provide general results valid for an arbitrary equation of state and show how the different models are connected to each other. For illustration, we specifically consider polytropic and logotropic dark fluids that have been proposed as unified dark matter and dark energy models. We recover the Born-Infeld action of the Chaplygin gas in models I and III and obtain the explicit expression of the reduced action of the logotropic dark fluid in models II and III. We also derive the two-fluid representation of the Chaplygin and logotropic models. Our general formalism can be applied to many other situations such as Bose-Einstein condensates with a ${\left|\phi \right|}^4$ (or more general) self-interaction, dark matter superfluids, and mixed models.

In this paper, we study the reconstruction paradigm for Tsallis holographic dark energy model using generalized Tsallis entropy conjecture with Hubble horizon in the framework of $f(G,T)$ gravity (G and T represent the Gauss-Bonnet invariant and trace of the energy-momentum tensor). We take the flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe model with dust fluid configuration. The cosmological evolution of reconstructed models is examined through cosmic diagnostic parameters and phase planes. The equation of the state parameter indicates phantom phase while the deceleration parameter demonstrates accelerated cosmic epoch for both conserved as well as non-conserved energy-momentum tensor. The squared speed of the sound parameter shows instability of the conserved model while stable non-conserved model for the entire cosmic evolutionary paradigm. The trajectories of the ${\omega }_{GT}-{\omega }_{GT}^{\prime }$ plane correspond to freezing as well as thawing regimes for the conserved and non-conserved scenario, respectively. The $r-s$ plane gives phantom and quintessence dark energy epochs for conserved while Chaplygin gas model regime for the non-conserved case. We conclude that, upon the appropriate choice of the free parameters involved, the derived models demonstrate a self-consistent phantom universe behavior. Full article

We develop a cosmological model based on a quadratic equation of state \(p/c^2=-(\alpha+1){\rho^2}/{\rho_P}+\alpha\rho-(\alpha+1)\rho_ {\Lambda}\), where \(\rho_P\) is the Planck density and \(\rho_{\Lambda}\) the cosmological density, ``unifying'' vacuum energy and dark energy in the spirit of a generalized Chaplygin gas model. For \(\rho\rightarrow \rho_P\), it reduces to \(p=-\rho_P c^2\) leading to a phase of early accelerating expansion (early inflation) with a constant density equal to the Planck density \(\rho_P=5.16 \times 10^{99}\, {\rm g}/{\rm m}^3\) (vacuum energy). For \(\rho_{\Lambda}\ll\rho\ll \rho_P\), we recover the standard linear equation of state \(p=\alpha \rho c^2\) describing radiation (\(\alpha=1/3\)) or pressureless matter (\(\alpha=0\)) and leading to an intermediate phase of decelerating expansion. For \(\rho\rightarrow \rho_{\Lambda}\), we get \(p=-\rho_{\Lambda} c^2\) leading to a phase of late accelerating expansion (late inflation) with a constant density equal to the cosmological density \(\rho_{\Lambda}=7.02\times 10^{-24}\, {\rm g}/{\rm m}^3\) (dark energy). The pressure is successively negative (vacuum energy), positive (radiation and matter), and negative again (dark energy). We show a nice ``symmetry'' between the early universe (vacuum energy \(+\) \(\alpha\)-fluid) and the late universe (\(\alpha\)-fluid \(+\) dark energy). In our model, they are described by two polytropic equations of state with index \(n=+1\) and \(n=-1\) respectively. Furthermore, the Planck density \(\rho_P\) in the early universe plays a role similar to the cosmological density \(\rho_{\Lambda}\) in the late universe. They represent fundamental upper and lower density bounds differing by \(122\) orders of magnitude. The cosmological constant ``problem'' may be a false problem. We study the evolution of the scale factor, density, and pressure. Interestingly, our quadratic equation of state leads to a fully analytical model describing the evolution of the universe from the early inflation (Planck era) to the late accelerating expansion (de Sitter era). These two phases are bridged by a decelerating algebraic expansion (\(\alpha\)-era). Our model does not present any singularity at \(t=0\) and exists eternally in the past (although it may be incorrect to extrapolate the solution to the infinite past). On the other hand, it admits a scalar field interpretation based on an inflaton, quintessence, or tachyonic field. Our model generalizes the standard \(\Lambda\)CDM model by incorporating naturally a phase of early inflation that avoids the primordial singularity. Furthermore, it describes the early inflation, the intermediate decelerating expansion, and the late accelerating expansion of the universe simultaneously in terms of a single equation of state. We determine the corresponding scalar field potential that unifies the inflaton and quintessence potentials. Full article
