Locally rotationally symmetric bianchi type-i cosmological model in F(T) gravity: From early to dark energy dominated universe

International Journal of Modern Physics D, Volume 23, No. 1, Article 1450004, Year 2014

We study the locally rotational symmetry Bianchi type-I dark energy model in the framework of f(T) theory of gravity, where T denotes the torsion scalar. A viable cosmological model is undertaken and the isotropization of this latter is checked, yielding a result that reflects the real evolution of our universe. Moreover, still in the anisotropic optic, a more complicated f(T) model is obtained from the cosmological reconstruction scheme and the analysis shows that the universe is more anisotropic at the beginning if the terms of higher order in T are not considered. This means that the nonlinear model should be favored by observational data. © World Scientific Publishing Company.
