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…

An oscillating universe cycles through a series of expansions and contractions. We propose a model in which ``phantom'' energy with $p < -\rho$ grows rapidly and dominates the late-time expanding phase. The universe's energy density is so…

We study the growth of structures in modified gravity models where the Poisson equation and the relationship between the two Newtonian potentials are modified by explicit functions of space and time. This parameterisation applies to the…

This study uses very simple symmetry and consistency considerations to put constraints on possible Friedmann equations for modified gravity models in curved spaces. As an example, it is applied to loop quantum cosmology.

In the emergent cosmic space scenario recently proposed by Padmanabhan, the expansion of the universe is attributed to the difference between the number of degrees of freedom on a holographic surface and the one in the bulk. Based on this…

The observed accelerated expansion of the Universe may be explained by dark energy or the breakdown of general relativity (GR) on cosmological scales. When the latter case, a modified gravity scenario, is considered, it is often assumed…
