The arbitrariness of potentials in interacting quintessence models

Abstract

We study the interacting quintessence model with two different types of interaction by introducing a general parameterization of the quintessence potentials. The form of the quintessence potentials is arbitrary as the recent cosmological observations failed to constrain any particular form of the potentials. We explore the interacting quintessence models and investigate if an introduction of interaction between the dark sectors can constrain any particular form of the potential. Our findings reconfirm the arbitrariness of the quintessence potentials even for the interacting dark energy models. As a result, it is shown that the current observations are able to put an upper bound to the interaction parameter for both of the interactions we consider, although it is not possible to constrain the form of the potentials.
