Conformal Cyclic Cosmology (CCC) is a cyclic model of the universe put forward by Sir Roger Penrose. A conformal invariance assumption in the neighbourhood of the crossover region between cycles (which Penrose calls aeons) allows successive…
We obtain a constraint on cosmological scalars for the FRW metric with a pure radiation fluid source and positive cosmological constant. We demonstrate that this constraint is conformally invariant in the context of Penrose's Conformal…
I review the equations of Conformal Cyclic Cosmology given by Penrose. I suggest a slight modification to Penrose's prescription and show how this works out for FRW cosmologies and for Class A Bianchi cosmologies.
We analyse spacetimes with a conformal scalar field source, a cosmological constant and a quartic self-interaction term for the scalar field. We also consider additional matter contents in the form of Maxwell and Yang-Mills fields or…
In this work, first, we study a flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker Universe with two scalar fields but only one potential term, which can be thought as a simple quintessence plus a K-essence model. Employing the Hamiltonian formalism we are…
We derive and solve exactly the Dyer-Roeder equation in a Friedman-Robertson-Walker cosmological model with non zero cosmological constant. To take into account non homogeneous distribution of matter we use the phenomenological clumpiness…
According to conformal cyclic cosmology (CCC), the currently conventional description of the entire history of the universe (but without an initial inflationary phase) provides but one cosmic aeon of an unending sequence of such aeons,…
Cosmological perturbations on a manifold admitting signature change are studied. The background solution consists in a Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson- Walker (FLRW) Universe filled by a constant scalar field playing the role of a cosmological…
The article is a natural continuation of our paper {\em Quantum scalar field in FRW Universe with constant electromagnetic background}, Int. J. Mod. Phys. {\bf A12}, 4837 (1997). We generalize the latter consideration to the case of massive…
A new cosmological model implies that dR/dt is constant for both t > t_c and t goes to 0, and that dR^2/dt is proportional to n_s^-1 for t_c > t > 0. Here R(t) is the cosmic scale factor, t_c is a crossover time defined in the text, and n_s…
New exact solutions of brane-world cosmology are given. These solutions include an arbitrary constant C, which is determined by the geometry outside the brane and which affects the cosmological evolution in the brane-world. If C is zero,…
In this letter, we apply the Randall-Sundrum (RS) model, a scenario based on compactifications, to control the UV divergence of the zero-point energy density equation for the vacuum fluctuations, which has been unsuccessfully addressed to…
The cosmological constant (CC) problem is the biggest enigma of theoretical physics ever. In recent times, it has been rephrased as the dark energy problem in order to encompass a wider spectrum of possibilities. It is, in any case, a…
In arXiv:1601.02203, a simple model has been proposed in order to solve one of the problems related with the cosmological constant. The model is given by a topological field theory and the model has an infinite numbers of the BRS…
In this paper we study the flat (k=0) cosmological FRW model with holonomy corrections of Loop Quantum Gravity. The considered universe contains a massless scalar field and the cosmological constant Lambda. We find analytical solutions for…
We study past horizons in the class of type II Robinson-Trautman vacuum spacetimes with a cosmological constant. These exact radiative solutions of Einstein's equations exist in the future of any sufficiently smooth initial data, and they…
We consider several model with metric type FRW, with k=0 and with generic equation of state. We take into account too, the conservation principle for the energy-momentum tensor. We find trivially, a set of solutions through dimensional…
In this paper, a general entropy-corrected FRW cosmological model has been presented in which a deceleration-to-acceleration transition occurs according to recent observations. We found that the case for the flat universe ($k=0$), supported…

In this paper, a general FRW cosmological model has been constructed in $f(R,T)$ gravity reconstruction with variable cosmological constant. A number of solutions to the field equations has been generated by utilizing a form for the Hubble…
