Dynamical stability in presence of non-minimal derivative dependent coupling of k-essence field with a relativistic fluid

Abstract In this paper we investigate a non-minimal, space-time derivative dependent, coupling between the k-essence field and a relativistic fluid using a variational approach. The derivative coupling term couples the space-time derivative of the k-essence field with the fluid 4-velocity via an inn...
