In the last year, several pieces of evidence have pointed to a possible deviation from the standard cosmological model, $\Lambda$CDM. The recent work by the Dark Energy Survey (DES) collaboration reports a preference in the ballpark of…

In the present work, we consider the cosmological constant model $\Lambda\propto\alpha^{-6}$, which is well motivated from three independent approaches. As is well known, the hint of varying fine structure constant $\alpha$ was found in…

We intend to study a new class of cosmological models in $f(R, T)$ modified theories of gravity, hence define the cosmological constant $\Lambda$ as a function of the trace of the stress energy-momentum-tensor $T$ and the Ricci scalar $R$,…

In the era of precision cosmology, the cosmological constant $\Lambda$ gives quite an accurate description of the evolution of the Universe, but it is still plagued with the fine-tuning problem and the cosmic coincidence problem. In this…
