Holographic Dark Energy Model in Brans-Dicke Theory with Future Event Horizon


Abstract in English

In this paper, we study the dynamics of non-interacting and interacting holographic dark energy models in the framework of Brans-Dicke theory. As systems infra-red cut-off we consider the future event horizon. The motivation of this work is to use the logarithmic form of the Brans-Dicke scalar field, $phi propto ln(alpha+beta a)$, where $alpha$ and $beta$ are constants and `a is the scalar factor as proposed Kumar and Singh in a recent work to study the new agegraphic dark energy models. We find the time-dependent equation of state parameter and deceleration parameter which describe the phase transition of the universe. We observe that the model explains the early time inflation and late time acceleration including matter-dominated phase. It is also observed that the equation of state parameter may cross phantom divide line in late time evolution. The cosmic coincidence problem is also discussed for both the models. We observe that this logarithmic form of Brans-Dicke scalar field is more appropriate to achieve a less acute coincidence problem in non-interacting model whereas a soft coincidence can be achieved if coupling parameter in interacting model has small value.
