We consider the scenario emerging from the dynamics of a generalized $d$-brane in a $(d+1, 1)$ spacetime. The equation of state describing this system is given in terms of the energy density, $\rho$, and pressure, $p$, by the relationship $p = - A/\rho^{\alpha}$, where $A$ is a positive constant and $0 < \alpha \le 1$. We discuss the conditions under which homogeneity arises and show that this equation of state describes the evolution of a universe evolving from a phase dominated by non-relativistic matter to a phase dominated by a cosmological constant via an intermediate period where the effective equation of state is given by $p = \alpha \rho$.

  1. A solid unification of the dark sector

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A generalized Chaplygin-type solid unifies dark matter and dark energy via an early pressureless phase transitioning to a late solid phase that supports acceleration and produces distinct low-redshift perturbation signatures.

  2. Cosmological and lunar laser ranging constraints on evolving dark energy in a nonminimally coupled curvature-matter gravity model

    gr-qc 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Nonminimal curvature-matter coupling produces dynamical dark energy consistent with DESI observations and lunar laser ranging equivalence principle constraints.

  3. Resolving the Planck-DESI tension by nonminimally coupled quintessence

    astro-ph.CO 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Non-minimally coupled quintessence resolves the Planck-DESI Ω_m tension at >3σ while the effective equation of state stays above w=-1 and other tensions on neutrino mass and growth rate are relieved.

  4. Three-form dark energy: constraints and multi-probe comparison with $\Lambda$CDM

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Three-form dark energy with Gaussian potential is fitted to multi-probe cosmological data and shows mild statistical preference over ΛCDM only in heavily tensioned dataset combinations.

  5. Barrow holographic dark energy interacting model in the presence of radiation and matter

    gr-qc 2025-07 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Numerical study of interacting Barrow holographic dark energy in non-flat universes with radiation, showing EoS transitions and higher fitted H0 values that may address Hubble tension.
