A novel function for modified gravity is proposed, $f(R, T)=R+\lambda R^2+2\beta\ln(T)$, with constants $\lambda$ and $\beta$, scalar curvature $R$, and the trace of stress energy tensor $T$, satisfying $T=\rho-3p>0$. Subsequently, two…
The newly released observational $H(z)$ data (OHD) is used to constrain $\Lambda(t)$CDM models as holographic and agegraphic dark energy. By the use of the length scale and time scale as the IR cut-off including Hubble horizon (HH), future…
In this article, we introduce an innovative parametric representation of the Hubble parameter, providing a model-independent means to explore the dynamics of an accelerating cosmos. The model's parameters are rigorously constrained through…
This work examines the cosmological implications of two functional forms of $f(R,T) = R + \alpha T^n$ gravity: for two different value of $n $ where $n=1$ and $n\neq 1$, and $\alpha$ and $n$ are free parameters. The modified Friedmann…
We compile a complete collection of reliable Hubble parameter $H(z)$ data to redshift $z \leq 2.36$ and use them with the Gaussian Process method to determine continuous $H(z)$ functions for various data subsets. From these continuous…
We use higher-redshift gamma-ray burst (GRB), HII starburst galaxy (HIIG), and quasar angular size (QSO-AS) measurements to constrain six spatially flat and non-flat cosmological models. These three sets of cosmological constraints are…
We examine flat models containing a dark matter component and an arbitrary dark energy component, subject only to the constraint that the dark energy satisfies the weak energy condition. We determine the constraints that these conditions…
Thanks to new technology of observations and fresh inputs from particle physics, cosmology has advanced on both observational and theoretical fronts. It is therefore opportune that we take stock of the cosmological situation today and…
A model-independent test of the cosmic curvature parameter $\Omega_k$ is very important in cosmology. In order to estimate cosmic curvature from cosmological probes like standard candles, one has to be able to measure the luminosity…
We consider constraints on the Hubble parameter $H_0$ and the matter density parameter $\Omega_{\mathrm{M}}$ from: (i) the age of the Universe based on old stars and stellar populations in the Galactic disc and halo (Cimatti & Moresco…
In the paper, we consider two models in which dark energy is coupled with either dust matter or dark matter, and discuss the conditions that allow more time for structure formation to take place at high redshifts. These models are expected…
A higher value of Hubble constant has been obtained from measurements with nearby Type Ia supernovae, than that obtained at much higher redshift. With the peculiar motions of their hosts, we find that the matter content at such low redshift…
We consider cosmic chronometer (CC) data for the Hubble parameter, quasar (QSO) luminosities data of X-rays and ultraviolet rays emission, and the latest measurements of the present value of the Hubble parameter from 2018 Planck mission…
In this manuscript, we investigate the constraints on dynamical vacuum models within the framework of $\Lambda(t)$CDM cosmology by assuming a parameterization of the vacuum energy density as $\rho_{\Lambda}(t)=\rho_{\Lambda 0} \left[1 +…

The cosmic microwave background (CMB) monopole temperature evolves with the inverse of the cosmological scale factor, independent of many cosmological assumptions. With sufficient sensitivity, real-time cosmological observations could thus…

Modified theories of gravity encompass a class of $f(R)$-models that seek to elucidate the observed late time accelerated expansion of the universe. In this study, we examine a set of viable $f(R)$ models (Hu-Sawicki: two cases,…
We propose two model independent methods to obtain constraints on the transition and equivalence redshifts $z_{tr}$, $z_{eq}$. In particular, we consider $z_{tr}$ as the onset of cosmic acceleration, whereas $z_{eq}$ the redshift at which…
