Higher-dimensional Bianchi type-I dark energy models with barotropic fluid in Saez-Ballester scalar-tensor theory of gravitation

In this paper, we have explored the features of the five-dimensional Bianchi type-I cosmological universe filled with barotropic fluid and dark energy within the framework of Saez-Ballester theory of gravitation. Field equations have been solved by assuming the different functional forms of metric potentials, i.e., A = B = C = t(n) and D = t(n1). The value of the equation of state parameter and other kinematical parameters have been obtained for both interacting and non-interacting scenarios. The characteristics of physicals parameters are also explained. The obtained results are compatible with the recent observational data.
