A Study on the Interacting Ricci Dark Energy in f(R, T) Gravity

The present work reports study on the interacting Ricci dark energy in a modified gravity theory named f(R, T) gravity. In the specific model f(R, T) = μR + νT we have observed a quintom-like behavior of the equation of state parameter and a transition from matter dominated to dark energy density has been observed through fraction density evolution. The statefinder parameters reveal that the model interpolates between dust and ΛCDM\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$\Uplambda\hbox{CDM}$$\end{document} phases of the universe.
