We present exact analytical solutions to the Conformal Weyl Gravity cosmological equations that are valid for both the matter and radiation dominated eras. The Primordial Nucleosynthesis process is also exhaustively studied. The main…

Recently a phenomenological relationship for the observed cosmological constant has been discussed by Motl and Carroll in the context of treating the cosmological constant as a $2\times 2$ matrix but no specific realization of the idea was…

In this paper, we investigate the cosmological implications and constraints of Weyl-type $f(Q, T)$ gravity. This theory introduces a coupling between the non-metricity $Q$ and the trace $T$ of the energy-momentum tensor, using the…

In this paper, we considered the study of Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) model in the framework of $f(Q,T)$ gravity, an extension of symmetric teleparallel gravity, recently defined by Y. Xu et al. \cite{Xu}. The non-linear model…

We use 28 Hubble parameter, $H(z)$, measurements at intermediate redshifts $0.07 \leq z \leq 2.3$ to determine the present-day Hubble constant $H_0$ in four cosmological models. We measure $H_0 = 68.3^{ +2.7}_{ -2.6 }, 68.4^{ +2.9 }_{ -3.3…

The evolution of a flat, isotropic and homogeneous universe is studied. The background geometry in the early phases of the universe is conjectured to be filled with causal bulk viscous cosmological fluid and dark energy. The energy density…

The classical stochastic model of cosmology recently developed by us is reconsidered. In that approach the parameter $w$ defined by the equation of state $p=w{\rho}$ was taken to be fluctuating with mean zero and we compared the theoretical…

A new kind of evolution for cyclic models in which the Hubble parameter oscillates and keeps positive has been explored in a specific $f(R,T)$ gravity reconstruction. A singularity-free cyclic universe with negative varying cosmological…

A theoretical explanation for the so-called Hubble tension is provided within the framework of phase-space quantum mechanics extended to (quantum) cosmology. Following a description of the overall nature of this tension, with due attention…

We generalise the procedure for joint estimation of cosmological parameters to allow freedom in the relative weights of various probes. This is done by including in the joint Likelihood function a set of 'Hyper-Parameters', which are dealt…

We study a Newtonian cosmological model in the context of a noncommutative space. It is shown that the trajectories of a test particle undergo modifications such that it no longer satisfies the cosmological principle. For the case of a…

We study the possible interpretation of the "universal constants" by the classification of J.~M.~L\'evy-Leblond. $\hbar$ and $c$ are the most common example of constants of this type. Using Fock's principle of the relativity w.r.t.…

This paper examines a cosmological model of scale-dependent gravity. The gravitational action is taken to be the Einstein-Hilbert term supplemented with a cosmological constant, where the couplings, $G_k$ and $\Lambda_k$, run with the…

A cosmological model with a specific form of the Hubble parameter is constructed in a flat homogeneous, and isotropic background in the framework of $f(R, T)$ gravity, where $R$ is the scalar curvature and $T$ is the trace of the…

We show that almost all metric--affine theories of gravity yield Einstein equations with a non--null cosmological constant $\Lambda$. Under certain circumstances and for any dimension, it is also possible to incorporate a Weyl vector field…

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…

Horava-Lifshitz theory of gravity with detailed balance is plagued by the presence of a negative bare (or geometrical) cosmological constant which makes its cosmology clash with observations. We argue that adding the effects of the large…
