We study cosmological models using dynamical systems and averaging methods, encompassing flat and open FLRW geometries as well as the LRS Bianchi types I, III, and V. Under mild regularity and frequency-scaling assumptions, we obtain a…
Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmological models with a massive scalar field are studied in the presence of hydrodynamical matter in the form of a perfect fluid. The ratio of the number of solutions without inflation to the total number of…
It is known that any explicit averaging scheme of the type essential for describing the large scale behaviour of the Universe, must necessarily yield corrections to the Einstein equations applied in the Cosmological setting. The question of…
In order to quantitatively test the ability of averaged inhomogeneous cosmologies to correctly describe observations of the large scale properties of the Universe, we introduce a smoothed template metric corresponding to a constant spatial…
It is a fact that the universe lives on a Gravitational Wave Background (GWB), which it may be in the form of extra energy, which is not contained in Einstein's field equations. In \cite{Matos:2021jef}, a new model was developed to explain…
We investigate the cosmology of a class of model with noncanonical scalar field and matter both in FRW closed and open background. Writing the Einstein Equations in terms of dimensionless dynamical variables suitable for studying bouncing…
We establish purely geometric or metric-based criteria for the validity of the separate universe ansatz, under which the evolution of small-scale observables in a long-wavelength perturbation is indistinguishable from a separate…
The Cosmological Principle is applied to a five-dimensional vacuum manifold. The general (non-trivial) solution is explicitly given. The result is a unique metric, parametrized with the sign of the space curvature ($k=0,\pm 1$) and the…
The general world model for homogeneous and isotropic universe has been roposed. For this purpose, we introduce a global and fiducial system of reference (world reference frame) constructed on a 5-dimensional space-time that is embedding…
In this study, FRW-cosmologies with some matter groups such as monopole-domain wall, monopole-Chaplygin gas and monopole-strange quark matter in the scalar theory of gravitation based on Lyra geometry are investigated. We expand two exact…
We introduce a cosmological model in the framework of Generalised Massive Gravity. This theory is an extension of non-linear massive gravity with a broken translation symmetry in the St\"uckelberg space. In a recent work, we showed the…
Solutions to flat space Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmologies in Brans-Dicke theory with a cosmological constant are investigated. The matter is modelled as a $\gamma$-law perfect fluid. The field equations are reduced from fourth order to…

The usual Einstein's equations is modified as a one parameter family of equations in the framework of rainbow gravity. In this paper we derive the modified Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) equations when the cosmological evolution of…
A theory of massive gravity depends on a non-dynamical 'reference metric' f_{\mu\nu} which is often taken to be the flat Minkowski metric. In this paper we examine the theory of perturbations on a background with metric g_{\mu\nu} which…
In this paper we investigate, from the dynamical systems perspective, the evolution of a Kantowski-Sachs metric in a generic class of $f(R)$ models. We present conditions (i. e., differentiability conditions, existence of minima, monotony…
The standard cosmological model is challenged by an ever-growing collection of observations, which invites (and stimulates) inquiry into possible additions and/or alterations. One such alteration comes from letting cosmic isotropy -- as…
In the standard Friedmann-Lema\^itre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) spacetime, we consider a local cosmic test mass that is boosted in some direction relative to the standard comoving observers. The geodesic (Fermi) normal coordinate system…
We review observational tests for the homogeneity of the Universe on large scales. Redshift and peculiar velocity surveys, radio sources, the X-Ray Background, the Lyman-$\alpha$ forest and the Cosmic Microwave Background are used to set…
The Einstein-Straus model consists of a Schwarzschild spherical vacuole in a Friedman-Lema\^{\i}tre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) dust spacetime (with or without \Lambda). It constitutes the most widely accepted model to answer the question of…
