We study the autonomous system for a scalar-tensor model of dark energy with non-minimal coupling to curvature and non-minimal kinetic coupling to the Einstein tensor. The critical points describe important stable asymptotic scenarios…
In loop quantum gravity, modifications to the geometrical density cause a self-interacting scalar field to accelerate away from a minimum of its potential. In principle, this mechanism can generate the conditions that subsequently lead to…
We study primordial cosmology with two scalar fields that participate in inflation at the same time, by coupling quantum gravity (i.e., the theory $R+R^{2}+C^{2}$ with the fakeon prescription/projection for $C^{2}$) to a scalar field with a…
Here we concisely review the nonminimal coupling dynamics of a single scalar field in the context of purely affine gravity and extend the study to multifield dynamics. The coupling is performed via an affine connection and its associated…

Inflation has been the leading early universe scenario for two decades, and has become an accepted element of the successful `cosmic concordance' model. However, there are many puzzling features of the resulting theory. It requires both…
We show that in the simplest theories of spontaneous symmetry breaking one can have a stage of a fast-roll inflation. In this regime the standard slow-roll condition |m^2| << H^2 is violated. Nevertheless, this stage can be rather long if…
We study cosmology in scalar-tensor (Bergmann Wagoner) gravity, restricting the coupling function, ${\omega}({\phi})$ to be constant. Rather than specify the form of the cosmological function, ${\lambda}({\phi})$, the scalar field is…
