Anisotropic Bianchi type-III perfect fluid cosmological models in f(R, T) theory of gravity

Einstein's field equations are considered for spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi type-III space-time in presence of a perfect fluid within the framework of f(R, T) theory of gravity. Algorithms are derived to generate new classes of solutions of field equations starting from known solutions to the same type. Starting with the solution of Reddy and coworkers, new classes of Bianchi type-III cosmological models in f(R, T) gravity theory are generated. Kinematical and physical behaviors of the cosmological models are discussed. These models may be physically significant for discussion on early stages of evolution of the universe.
