We consider cosmological models where the universe, governed by Einstein's equations, is a piece of a five dimensional double-sided anti-de Sitter spacetime (that is, a "$Z_2$-symmetric bulk") with matter confined to its four dimensional…
We investigate cosmological constraints on K-mouflage models of modified gravity. We consider two scenarios: one where the background evolution is free to deviate from $\Lambda$CDM (K-mouflage) and another one which reproduces a…
In the present work we examine the dynamics of a model for oscillons in 1-dimensional spacetime field theories with a cubic nonlinearity. We utilize a reduction of the model to first and third harmonics, which leads to a reduced partial…
The recent astronomical measurements of distant supernovae as well as other observations indicate that our universe is presently accelerating. There are different proposals for the explanation of this acceleration, such as the cosmological…
Quantum dynamics of the Bose-Hubbard Model is investigated through a semiclassical hamiltonian picture provided by the Time-Dependent Variational Principle method. The system is studied within a factorized slow/fast dynamics. The…
We constrain the parameters of the $k$-essence scalar field model with inverse square and exponential potentials using data sets including Pantheon+SHOES and the Dark Energy Survey (DES) of Type Ia supernovae, Baryon Acoustic Oscillation…
We perform a detailed dynamical system analysis for the behaviour of a Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) field in a spatially closed Friedmann-Lema\^itre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) cosmology. The DBI field is characterised by a potential and brane…
We present an analysis of the Brans-Dicke cosmological model with a cosmological constant and cold dark matter (BD-$\Lambda$CDM). We find that the BD-$\Lambda$CDM is favored by the overall cosmological data (SNIa+BAO+$H(z)$+LSS+CMB) when it…
One of the most compelling goals of observational cosmology is the characterisation of the properties of the dark energy component thought to be responsible for the recent acceleration of the universe, including its possible dynamics. In…
Gravitational wave (GW) constraints have recently been used to significantly restrict models of dark energy and modified gravity. New bounds arising from GW decay and GW-induced dark energy instabilities are particularly powerful in this…
We explore observational constraints on a cosmological brane-world scenario in which the bulk is not empty. Rather, exchange of mass-energy between the bulk and the bane is allowed. The evolution of matter fields to an observer on the brane…
We study dynamics of $\Lambda(t)$ cosmological models which are a natural generalization of the standard cosmological model (the $\Lambda$CDM model). We consider a class of models: the ones with a prescribed form of…
We study Brans-Dicke cosmology with an inverse power-law effective potential. By using dynamical analyses, we search for fixed points corresponding to the radiation-like matter and dark energy-dominated era of our Universe, and the…
The well-known brane world model of cosmology is an alternative to the standard model of cosmology, called {\Lambda}CDM (Lambda Cold Dark Matter) model. However, the quadratical energy density of the brane universe requires an undesirable…
We place observational constraints on models with the late-time cosmic acceleration based on a number of parametrizations allowing fast transitions for the equation of state of dark energy. In addition to the model of Linder and Huterer…
Three general models of dynamical interacting dark energy (D-class) are investigated in the context of Brans-Dicke cosmology. All cosmological quantities such as equation of state parameters, deceleration parameters, Hubble function, and…
In this paper, we study the geodesic deviation equation (GDE) within the context of the Brans-Dicke (BD) theory in $D$ dimensions. Then, we restrict our attention to the GDE for the fundamental observers and null vector field past directed.…
We investigate aspects of quantum cosmology in relation to string cosmology systems that are described in terms of the Dirac-Born-Infeld action. Using the Silverstein-Tong model, we analyze the Wheeler-DeWitt equation for the rolling scalar…
In this paper we discuss classical and quantum aspects of cosmological models in Brans-Dicke theory. First, we review cosmological bounce solution in Brans-Dicke theory that obeys energy conditions (without ghost) for a universe filled with…
A complete analysis of the dynamics of the Hu-Sawicki modification to General Relativity is presented. In particular, the full phase-space is given for the case in which the model parameters are taken to be n=1, c1=1, and several stable de…
