Dark energy models are here investigated and studied in the framework of the Chern–Simons modified gravity model. We bring into focus the holographic dark energy model with Granda–Oliveros cut-off, the modified holographic Ricci dark energy model and a model with higher derivatives of the Hubble parameter. The relevant expressions of the scale factor for a Friedmann–Robertson–Walker Universe are derived and studied, and, in this context, the evolution of the scale factor is shown to be similar to the one displayed by the modified Chaplygin gas in two of the above models.
