In the present article, we show that a simple modification to the Einstein-Hilbert action can explain the possibility of mutual interaction between the cosmic fluids. That is achieved considering the Weyl Integrable Spacetime in the…
We investigate cosmological models in a recently proposed geometrical theory of gravity, in which the scalar field appears as part of the space-time geometry. We extend the previous theory to include a scalar potential in the action. We…

We consider a cosmological model in a Friedmann--Lema\^{\i}tre--Robertson--Walker background space with an ideal gas defined in Weyl Integrable gravity. In the Einstein-Weyl theory a scalar field is introduced in a geometric way.…
Using the power of numerical relativity, we show that, beginning from generic initial conditions that are far from flat, homogeneous and isotropic and have a large Weyl curvature, a period of slow contraction rapidly drives spacetime…
The increasing entropy, large-scale isotropy and approximate flatness of the universe are considered in the context of signature change, which is a classical model of quantum tunnelling in quantum cosmology. The signature change hypothesis…
Already the simplest examples of Weyl geometry, the static space-time models of general relativity modified by an additional time-homogeneous Weylian length connection lead to beautiful cosmological models (Weyl universes) . The…
The perfect dilaton-spin fluid (as a model of the dilaton matter, the particles of which are endowed with intrinsic spin and dilaton charge) is considered as the source of the gravitational field in a Weyl-Cartan spacetime. The variational…
We study the late time evolution of flat and negatively curved Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) models with a perfect fluid matter source and a scalar field arising in the conformal frame of $f(R)$ theories nonminimally coupled to matter.…
We investigate homogeneous and isotropic oscillating cosmologies with multiple fluid components. Transfer of energy between these fluids is included in order to model the effects of non-equilibrium behavior on closed universes. We find…
In a previous paper, we presented new results on non-Riemannian geometry. For an asymmetric connection, we showed that a projective change in the symmetric part generates a vector field that is not arbitrary, but is the gradient of a…
This study investigates the possibility of a homogeneous and isotropic cosmological solution within the context of the Maxwell-Weyl gauge theory of gravity. To achieve this, we utilize the Einstein-Yang-Mills theory as an analogy and…
We provide a simple mathematical description of the exchange of energy between two fluids in an expanding Friedmann universe with zero spatial curvature. The evolution can be reduced to a single non-linear differential equation which we…
Equations for cosmological evolution are formulated in a Weyl invariant formalism to take into account possible Weyl anomalies. Near two dimensions, the renormalized cosmological term leads to a nonlocal energy-momentum tensor and a slowly…
We investigate spatially flat isotropic cosmological models which contain a scalar field with an exponential potential and a perfect fluid with a linear equation of state. We include an interaction term, through which the energy of the…

In this thesis we investigate cosmological models more general than the isotropic and homogeneous Friedmann-Lemaitre models. We focus on cosmologies with one spatial degree of freedom, whose matter content consists of a perfect fluid and…
