We intend to study a new class of cosmological models in $f(R, T)$ modified theories of gravity, hence define the cosmological constant $\Lambda$ as a function of the trace of the stress energy-momentum-tensor $T$ and the Ricci scalar $R$,…
We consider cosmological model in 4+1 dimensions with variable scale factor in extra dimension and static external space. The time scale factor is changing. Variations of light velocity, gravity constant, mass and pressure are determined…
We apply the Induced Matter Model to a five-dimensional metric. For the case with null cosmological constant, we obtain a solution able to describe the radiation-dominated era of the universe. The positive $\Lambda$ case yields a bounce…
Cosmological models in Lyra's geometry are constructed and investigated with the assumption of a minimal interaction of matter with the displacement vector field and the dynamical $\Lambda$ - term. Exact solutions of the model equations are…
In this thesis the cosmological constant is investigated from two points of view. First, we study the influence of a time-dependent cosmological constant on the late-time expansion of the universe. Thereby, we consider several combinations…
We consider 5D Kaluza-Klein type cosmological model with the fifth coordinate being a generalization of the invariant ``historical'' time $\tau $ of the covariant theory of Horwitz and Piron. We distinguish between vacuum-, off-shell…
We discuss cosmology based on a Cuscuta-Galileon gravity theory, which preserves just two degrees of freedom. Although there exists no additional degrees of freedom, introduction of a potential of a scalar field changes the dynamics. The…
When the cosmological "constant" is derived from modern five-dimensional relativity, exact solutions imply that for small systems it scales in proportion to the square of the mass. However, a duality transformation implies that for large…
The cosmological term is assumed to be a function of time such as $\Lambda =Ba^{-2}$ where a(t) means the scale factor of standard cosmology. Analytical solutions for radiation dominated epoch and open universe are found. For closed…
In this paper we have considered the Universe to be filled with Modified Gas and the Cosmological Constant $\Lambda$ to be time-dependent with or without the Gravitational Constant $G$ to be time-dependent. We have considered various…
A new class of exact solutions of Einstein's field equations with a perfect fluid source, variable gravitational coupling $G$ and cosmological term $\Lambda$ for FRW spacetime is obtained by considering variable deceleration parameter…
When the cosmological constant of spacetime is derived from the 5D induced-matter theory of gravity, we show that a simple gauge transformation changes it to a variable measure of the vacuum which is infinite at the big bang and decays to…
A class of cosmological solutions of higher dimensional Einstein field equations with the energy-momentum tensor of a homogeneous, isotropic fluid as the source are considered with an anisotropic metric that includes the direct sum of a…
We study a uniform and isotropic cosmology with a decaying vacuum energy density, in the realm of a model with a time varying gravitational "constant". We show that, for late times, such a cosmology is in accordance with the observed values…
Some cosmological models based on the gravitational theory $f(R) = R+\zeta R^2$, and on fluids obeying to the equations of state of Redlich-Kwong, Berthelot, and Dieterici are proposed for describing smooth transitions between different…
Proceeding from a homogeneous and isotropic Friedmann universe a conceptional problem concerning light propagation in an expanding universe is brought up. As a possible solution of this problem it is suggested that light waves do not scale…
The idea that the cosmological term, Lambda, should be a time dependent quantity in cosmology is a most natural one. It is difficult to conceive an expanding universe with a strictly constant vacuum energy density, namely one that has…
We investigate a class of cosmological solutions of Einstein's field equations in higher dimensions with a cosmological constant and an ideal fluid matter distribution as a source. We discuss the dynamical evolution of the universe subject…
Most of the literature on general relativity over the last century assumes that the cosmological constant $\Lambda$ is zero. However, by now independent observations have led to a consensus that the dynamics of the universe is best…
In five dimensional cosmological models, the convention is to include the fifth dimension in a way similar to the other space dimensions. In this work we attempt to introduce the fifth dimension in a way that a time dimension would be…
