Title Interaction between Dark Matter and Dark Energy and the Cosmological Coincidence Problem
Type JournalPaper
Keywords Cosmology Dark Energy Dark Matter
Abstract We consider a quintessence model of dark energy inspired by scalar-tensor theories of gravitywhere the scalar field is nonminimally coupled to gravity and dark matter. By considering exponential potential as self-interaction potential, the stability and existence of the critical points are discussed in details. With nonminimally coupled dark sector with gravity, we obtain scaling solutions to address the coincidence problem by considering complex velocity for dark matter. The statefinder diagnostic shows that the equation of state reaches Λ𝐶𝐷𝑀model in the future.
