Abstract

Geometrical diagnostic, involving the statefinder and , is widely used to discriminate different dark energy models. We apply the statefinder and to purely kinetic k-essence dark energy model with Dirac-Born-Infeld-like Lagrangian which can be considered as scalar field realizations of Chaplygin gas. We plot the evolution trajectories of this model in the statefinder parameter-planes and parameter-plane. We find that the statefinder and fail to distinguish purely kinetic k-essence model from CDM model at 68.3% confidence level for .
