Phase-space analysis of a novel cosmological model in $f(Q)$ theory

Understand

The vanishing affine connections have been used solely while adopting the modified $f(Q)$ gravity theory to the cosmology.

• Consequently, researchers could not get beyond what is already known in $f(T)$ theory earlier.
• To alleviate this problem, in the present manuscript we investigate a recently proposed construction of $f(Q)$ theory using non-vanishing affine connection in the spatially flat FLRW spacetime.
• We then investigate the cosmological solutions of $f(Q)$ theory for a perfect fluid through the phase space analysis.
