We consider spherically symmetric inhomogeneous dust models with a positive cosmological constant, $\Lambda$, given by the Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi metric. These configurations provide a simple but useful generalization of the Lambda-CDM model…
We consider inhomogeneous spherically symmetric models based on the Lema\^{i}tre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) metric, assuming as its source an interactive mixture of ordinary baryonic matter, cold dark matter and dark energy with a coupling term…
We examine the evolution of an inhomogeneous mixture of non-relativistic pressureless cold dark matter (CDM), coupled to dark energy (DE) characterised by the equation of state parameter $w<-1/3$, with the interaction term proportional to…
We obtain covariant expressions that generalize the growing and decaying density modes of linear perturbation theory of dust sources by means of the exact density perturbation from the formalism of quasi--local scalars associated to weighed…
We re-examine the Lem\^aitre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) solutions with a dust source admitting symmetry centers. We consider as free parameters of the solutions the initial value functions: $Y_i$, $\rho_i$ and $\Ri$, obtained by restricting the…
We study small perturbations of the well-known family of Friedman-Lema\^{\i}tre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) solutions to the dust-Einstein system with a positive cosmological constant in the case that the spacelike Cauchy hypersurfaces are…
We derive a class of non-static inhomogeneous dust solutions in f(R) gravity described by the Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) metric. The field equations are fully integrated for all parameter subcases and compared with analogous subcases of…
We present semi-analytical solutions to the background equations describing the Lema\^itre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) metric as well as the homogeneous Friedmann equations, in the presence of dust, curvature and a cosmological constant Lambda. For…
In the present work, inhomogeneous Tolman-Bondi type dust space-time is studied on the brane. There are two sets of solutions of the above model. The first solution represents either a collapsing model starting from an infinite volume at…
We investigate the local non--linear dynamics of irrotational dust with vanishing magnetic part of the Weyl tensor, $H_{ab}$. Once coded in the initial conditions, this dynamical restriction is respected by the relativistic evolution…
Using scalar-vector-tensor Brans Dicke (VBD) gravity [3] in presence of self interaction BD potential $V(\phi)$ and perfect fluid matter field action we solve corresponding field equations via dynamical system approach for flat Friedmann…
We construct the Lema\^itre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) dust universe whose distance-redshift relation is equivalent to that in the concordance $\Lambda$ cold dark matter ($\Lambda$CDM) cosmological model. In our model, the density distribution and…
At a time when galaxy surveys and other observations are reaching unprecedented sky coverage and precision it seems timely to investigate the effects of general relativistic nonlinear dynamics on the growth of structures and on…
We consider a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker spacetime filled with both viscous radiation and nonviscous dust. The former has a bulk viscosity which is proportional to an arbitrary power of the energy density, i.e. $\zeta \propto \rho_v^{\nu}$,…
We carry out the dynamical system analysis of interacting dark energy-matter scenarios by examining the critical points and stability for not just the background level cosmological evolution, but at the level of the linear density…
The approximate homogeneity of spatial sections of the Universe is well supported observationally, but the inhomogeneity of the spatial sections is even better supported. Here, we consider the implications of inhomogeneity in dust models…
We discuss the existence of a dividing shell separating expanding and collapsing regions in spherically symmetric solutions with pressure. We obtain gauge invariant conditions relating not only the intrinsic spatial curvature of the shells…
Current observations suggest that our Universe is not incompatible with a small positive spatial curvature that can be associated with rest frames having a "closed" standard topology. We examine a toy model generalisation of the…
We examine the relation between the dynamics of Lema\^{\i}tre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) dust models (with and without $\Lambda$) and the dynamics of dust perturbations in two of the more familiar formalisms used in cosmology: the metric based…
We model the large scale late time universe as a Lambda-CDM cosmology driven by cosmological constant and perfect dust fluid. Our aim is to find new solutions in the matter and Lambda epoch consistent with inflationary initial conditions,…
