Cosmic Dynamics in $F(R,\phi)$ Gravity

Understand

In this paper we consider FRW cosmology in $F(R,\phi)$ gravity.

• It is shown that in particular cases the bouncing behavior may appears in the model whereas the equation of state (EoS) parameter may crosses the phantom divider.
• For the dynamical universe, quantitatively we also find parameters in the model which satisfies two independent tests:the model independent Cosmological Redshift Drift (CRD) test and the type Ia supernova luminosity distances.
