In this study, we explore the dynamics of the universe using a modified gravity model represented by $f(R, G, T)$, where $R$ is the Ricci scalar, $G$ is the Gauss-Bonnet invariant, and $T$ is the trace of the stress-energy tensor. The model…

We study the classical and quantum models of a flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) space-time, coupled to a perfect fluid, in the context of the consensus and a gauge-fixed Lagrangian frameworks. It is shown that, either in the usual or…
The big bounce transition of the quantum FRW model in the setting of loop quantum cosmology is presented. We determine the physical self-adjoint Hamiltonian generating the dynamics. It is used to define, via the Stone theorem, an evolution…

We investigate the new observational constraints on $f(T)$ gravity that arise from the effects of primordial gravitational waves (GWs) on the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies and the BB spectrum. We first show that on the GWs…
The existence of singularities in a closed FRW universe depends on the assumption that general relativity is valid for distances less than the Planck length. However, stationary state wave functions of the Schrodinger equation for a closed…
We show that the Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) framework has an instability towards the growth of fluid flow anisotropies, even if the Universe is accelerating. This flow (tilt) instability in the matter sector is invisible…
Much of the foundational work on quantum cosmology employs a simple minisuperspace model describing a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe containing a massive scalar field. We show that the classical limit of this model exhibits…
In this work, we deepen the correspondence between Generalized Uncertainty Principles (GUPs) and quantum dynamics on curved momentum space. In particular, we investigate the linear and quadratic GUP. Similarly to earlier work, the resulting…
It has recently been shown that f(R) theories formulated in the Palatini variational formalism are able to avoid the big bang singularity yielding instead a bouncing solution. The mechanism responsible for this behavior is similar to that…

We consider the quantum evolution of the space-independent mode of a $\lambda {\phi}^4$ theory as a minisuperspace in the space of all $\phi$. The motion of the wave packet in the minisuperspace is then compared to the motion of a wave…
We consider certain aspects of cosmological dynamics of a spatially curved Universe in $f(T)$ gravity. Local analysis allows us to find conditions for bounces and for static solutions; these conditions appear to be in general less…
