Type: article
Abstract: Symmetric teleparallel gravity is one among the general relativistic trinities which deals with the non–metricity scalar [Formula: see text]. In the Einstein—Hilbert action, a function of [Formula: see text] is chosen to be the main contributory part of the Lagrangian and a modified theory of gravity is constructed. In literature, different structures of the function of [Formula: see text] are found which sustain several astrophysical observations like Big Bang nucleosynthesis and late–time cosmic acceleration. Autonomous systems for each such models with different [Formula: see text] structures are constructed. Corresponding fixed points and their stability properties are studied. For every case, stable, unstable and saddle–type fixed points are found to exist. These points on the phase portraits are cosmologically analyzed. It is tried to justify which way the corresponding state may lead if the initial state is perturbed. A comparative study of different models is represented.
