Energy bounds in f(R,T) gravity with anisotropic backgrounds
Adnan Malik
Abstract
This research work discusses the energy bounds in [Formula: see text] gravity with an anisotropic background, where [Formula: see text] is the Ricci scalar and [Formula: see text] is the trace of the energy–momentum tensor. For our study, we consider the locally rotationally symmetric Bianchi Type-I space-time. Moreover, we calculate the field equations and find exact solutions by considering different [Formula: see text] gravity models. We investigate the graphical behavior of energy density and pressure components by considering these distinct gravity models. We further use Hubble, deceleration, jerk, and snap parameters to evaluate the viability of our models. We also perform the graphical analysis to observe the behavior of energy conditions especially null energy conditions, weak energy conditions, strong energy conditions, and dominant energy conditions. It can be noticed that all considered [Formula: see text] gravity models support the idea of the presence of exotic matter, which justifies the phenomenon of expansion of the universe.
