Cosmological dynamics of dark energy in teleparallel gravity

In this paper, we study a cosmological model governed by a generalized scalar field nonminimally coupled to scalar torsion in the framework of teleparallel gravity. By applying the Noether symmetry approach, we attempt to explore the explicit forms of the coupling function and the scalar field potential in the Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) flat spacetime. The existence of such symmetry permits the equations of motion to take a simpler form and provides an exponential form cosmological solution for both the scale factor and scalar field. It is shown that the tachyon field behaves as the origin of inflation and contributes significantly to the accelerating expansion of the universe in the early times. While, in the late times, gravitational sources are a pressureless matter field together with the tachyon field, which plays the essential role of dark energy and is the origin of deceleration-acceleration phase transition. Later on, it is also shown that the present model contains a cosmological degeneracy in the sense that different coupling parameters and tachyonic potentials can contribute to the same cosmological behaviors such as the cosmic acceleration, age, equation of state and mean Hubble of FLRW universe.
