$Om(z)$ is a diagnostic approach to distinguish dark energy models. However, there are few articles to discuss what is the distinguishing criterion. In this paper, firstly we smooth the latest observational $H(z)$ data using a model-independent method -- Gaussian processes, and then reconstruct the $Om(z)$ and its fist order derivative $mathcal{L}^{(1)}_m$. Such reconstructions not only could be the distinguishing criteria, but also could be used to estimate the authenticity of models. We choose some popular models to study, such as $Lambda$CDM, generalized Chaplygin gas (GCG) model, Chevallier-Polarski-Linder (CPL) parametrization and Jassal-Bagla-Padmanabhan (JBP) parametrization. We plot the trajectories of $Om(z)$ and $mathcal{L}^{(1)}_m$ with $1 sigma$ confidence level of these models, and compare them to the reconstruction from $H(z)$ data set. The result indicates that the $H(z)$ data does not favor the CPL and JBP models at $1 sigma$ confidence level. Strangely, in high redshift range, the reconstructed $mathcal{L}^{(1)}_m$ has a tendency of deviation from theoretical value, which demonstrates these models are disagreeable with high redshift $H(z)$ data. This result supports the conclusions of Sahni et al. citep{sahni2014model} and Ding et al. citep{ding2015there} that the $Lambda$CDM may not be the best description of our universe.

We describe a new class of dark energy (DE) models which behave like cosmological trackers at early times. These models are based on the $alpha$-attractor set of potentials, originally discussed in the context of inflation. The new models allow the current acceleration of the universe to be reached from a wide class of initial conditions. Prominent examples of this class of models are the potentials $cothvarphi$ and $coshvarphi$. A remarkable feature of this new class of models is that they lead to large enough negative values of the equation of state at the present epoch, consistent with the observations of accelerated expansion of the universe, from a very large initial basin of attraction. They therefore avoid the fine tuning problem which afflicts many models of DE.
We here study extended classes of logotropic fluids as textit{unified dark energy models}. Under the hypothesis of the Anton-Schmidt scenario, we consider the universe obeying a single fluid whose pressure evolves through a logarithmic equation of state. This result is in analogy with crystals under isotropic stresses. Thus, we investigate thermodynamic and dynamical consequences by integrating the speed of sound to obtain the pressure in terms of the density, leading to an extended version of the Anton-Schmidt cosmic fluids. Within this picture, we get significant outcomes expanding the Anton-Schmidt pressure in the infrared regime. The low-energy case becomes relevant for the universe to accelerate without any cosmological constant. We therefore derive the effective representation of our fluid in terms of a Lagrangian $mathcal{L}=mathcal{L}(X)$, depending on the kinetic term $X$ only. We analyze both the relativistic and non-relativistic limits. In the non-relativistic limit we construct both the Hamiltonian and Lagrangian in terms of density $rho$ and scalar field $vartheta$, whereas in the relativistic case no analytical expression for the Lagrangian can be found. Thus, we obtain the potential as a function of $rho$, under the hypothesis of irrotational perfect fluid. We demonstrate that the model represents a natural generalization of emph{logotropic dark energy models}. Finally, we analyze an extended class of generalized Chaplygin gas models with one extra parameter $beta$. Interestingly, we find that the Lagrangians of this scenario and the pure logotropic one coincide in the non-relativistic regime.
The origin of accelerating expansion of the Universe is one the biggest conundrum of fundamental physics. In this paper we review vacuum energy issues as the origin of accelerating expansion - generally called dark energy - and give an overview of alternatives, which a large number of them can be classified as interacting scalar field models. We review properties of these models both as classical field and as quantum condensates in the framework of non-equilibrium quantum field theory. Finally, we review phenomenology of models with the goal of discriminating between them.
We propose a dark energy model with a logarithmic cosmological fluid which can result in a very small current value of the dark energy density and avoid the coincidence problem without much fine-tuning. We construct a couple of dynamical models that could realize this dark energy at very low energy in terms of four scalar fields quintessence and discuss the current acceleration of the Universe. Numerical values can be made to be consistent with the accelerating Universe with adjustment of the two parameters of the theory. The potential can be given only in terms of the scale factor, but the explicit form at very low energy can be obtained in terms of the scalar field to yield of the form V(phi)=exp(-2phi)(frac{4 A}{3}phi+B). Some discussions and the physical implications of this approach are given.
Non-canonical scalar fields with the Lagrangian ${cal L} = X^alpha - V(phi)$, possess the attractive property that the speed of sound, $c_s^{2} = (2,alpha - 1)^{-1}$, can be exceedingly small for large values of $alpha$. This allows a non-canonical field to cluster and behave like warm/cold dark matter on small scales. We demonstrate that simple potentials including $V = V_0coth^2{phi}$ and a Starobinsky-type potential can unify dark matter and dark energy. Cascading dark energy, in which the potential cascades to lower values in a series of discrete steps, can also work as a unified model. In all of these models the kinetic term $X^alpha$ plays the role of dark matter, while the potential term $V(phi)$ plays the role of dark energy.
