In this work we carry out a noncommutative analysis of several Friedmann-Robert-Walker models, coupled to different types of perfect fluids and in the presence of a cosmological constant. The classical field equations are modified, by the…
We begin by reviewing the results on the decay of unstable D-branes in type II string theory, and the open-closed string duality proposal that arises from these studies. We then apply this proposal to the study of tachyon driven cosmology,…
We show that a certain class of nonlocal scalar models, with a kinetic operator inspired by string field theory, is equivalent to a system which is local in the coordinates but nonlocal in an auxiliary evolution variable. This system admits…
We apply a very simple procedure to construct non-singular cosmological models for flat Friedmann universes filled with minimally coupled scalar fields or by tachyon Born-Infeld-type fields. Remarkably, for the minimally coupled scalar…
We consider the non-trivial boundary conformal field theory with exactly marginal boundary deformation. In recent years this deformation has been studied in the context of rolling tachyons and S-branes in string theory. Here we study the…
We construct a Hamiltonian for the nonlocal F(R) theory in the present work. By this construction, we demonstrate the nature of the ghost degrees of freedom. Finally, we find conditions that give rise to ghost-free theories
We construct 4-dimensional cosmological FRW--models by compactifying a black 5-brane solution of type IIB supergravity, which carries both magnetic NS-NS-charge and RR-charge. The influence of nontrivial RR-fields on the dynamics of the…
Nonlocal cosmological models with quadratic potentials are considered. We study the action with an arbitrary analytic function F(\Box_g), which has both double and simple roots. The formulae for nonlocal energy-momentum tensor, which…
Various models are under consideration with metric type flat FRW whose energy-momentum tensor is described by a perfect fluid whose generic equation state and taking into account the conservation principle, but considering some of the…
We have recently constructed a manifestly local formulation of a nonlocal approach to the cosmological constant problem which can treat with quantum effects from both matter and gravitational fields. In this formulation, it has been…
We have constructed a nonlinear multi-graviton theory. An application of this theory to cosmology is discussed. We found that scale factors in a solution for this theory repeat acceleration and deceleration.
We study FRW cosmology for a double scalar - tensor theory of gravity where two scalar fields are nonminimally coupled to the geometry. In a framework to study stability and attractor solutions of the model in the phase space, we constraint…
An alternative method to the topological instanton solution for deriving an expression for the topological charge is presented. This alternative method involves the use of relativistic quantum field theory and covariant electrodynamics. In…
In a recent article, Faraoni proposed an alternative procedure to solve the Friedman-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) cosmological equations. The basic result of that paper was obtained long ago through a different approach, which seems to…
Rolling tachyon in linear dilaton background is examined by using an effective field theory with gauge field on an unstable D-brane in bosonic string theory. Several solutions are identified with tachyon matter equipped with constant…
The Einstein's field equations of FRW universes filled with a dissipative fluid described by full theory of causal transport equations are analyzed. New exact solutions are found using a non-local transformations on the nonlinear…
We develop a technique for the reconstruction of the potential for a scalar field or a tachyon field, reproducing a given cosmological evolution in a closed and open isotropic cosmological models. Such potentials are explicitly written down…
In this paper, we find several teleparallel $F(T,B)$ solutions for a Robertson--Walker (TRW) cosmological spacetime. We first set and solve the $F(T,B)$-type field equations for a linear perfect fluid. Using similar techniques, we then find…

We study a generalized nonlocal theory of gravity which, in specific limits, can become either the curvature non-local or teleparallel non-local theory. Using the Noether Symmetry Approach, we find that the coupling functions coming from…
