Hamilton-Jacobi formalism for Generalized Chaplygin Gas models
arXiv:2110.10085
Abstract
In this work we discuss the application of the Hamilton-Jacobi formalism on the scalar field implementation of Generalized Chaplygin Gas models. This corresponds to a Generalised Born-Infeld action for the scalar field, which in an initial fast-rolling phase mimics a matter-like behavior and in the final slow-rolling phase mimics a cosmological constant. In order to enrich the phenomenology of the model, we add an extra functional freedom, specified through a scalar potential for the field. Interestingly, we find that, due to the lifting induced by the non-standard kinetic term, an asymptotic de Sitter-like configuration can be obtained even for negative potentials. We show that at the background level, this model can easily mimic the ΛCDM model both with and without independent baryonic and radiation components.
