Abstract

We consider two alternative dark-energy models: a Lorentz-invariance preserving model with a nonminimally coupled scalar field and a Lorentz-invariance violating model with a minimally coupled scalar field.We study accelerated expansion and the dynamics of the equation of state parameter in these scenarios. While a minimally coupled scalar field does not have the capability to be a successful dark-energy candidate with line crossing of the cosmological constant, a non-minimally coupled scalar field in the presence of Lorentz invariance or a minimally coupled scalar field with Lorentz-invariance violation have this capability. In the latter case, accelerated expansion and phantom divide line crossing are the results of the interactive nature of this Lorentz-violating scenario.
