Reconstruction of cosmological models are inspired by generalization of the Chaplygin gas by П.Ю. Цыба, О.В. Разина, Н.Т. Суйкимбаева

“…Advantages arising from applying a theory containing higher-order invariants (Gauss–Bonnet invariant) consist in the presence of additional degrees of freedom, which makes it possible to study the influence of small-order effects on the dynamics of the system under study, which are in search and confirmed by cosmological observational data. We reconstructed two models with a power-law and exponential dependence on the Gauss–Bonnet invariant, where the model ansatz is a combination of the inverse Weierstrass elliptic function and the power-law function describing the Hubble parameter. …”
