We study the classical and quantum models of a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) cosmology, coupled to a perfect fluid, in the context of the scalar-metric gravity. Using the Schutz' representation for the perfect fluid, we show that, under…
In this article we will consider several phenomenological models for the Universe with varying $G$ and $\Lambda(t)$, where $G$ is the gravitational "constant" and $\Lambda(t)$ is a varying cosmological "constant". Two-component fluid model…
We present a flat (K=0) cosmological model, described by a perfect fluid with the ``constants'' $G,c$ and $\Lambda$ varying with cosmological time $t$. We introduce Planck\'s ``constant'' $\hbar$ in the field equations through the equation…
It is shown that if a variable cosmological term in the present Universe is described by a scalar field with minimal coupling to gravity and with some phenomenological self-interaction potential $V(\varphi)$, then this potential can be…

We have investigated an isotropic and homogeneous cosmological model of the universe in $f(R, T^{\phi})$ gravity, where $T^{\phi}$ is the trace of the energy-momentum tensor and $R$ is the Ricci scalar. We developed and presented exact…
After a short history of the $\Lambda$-term it is explained why the (effective) cosmological constant is expected to obtain contributions from short-distance physics, corresponding to an energy at least as large as the Fermi scale. The…
We regard the cosmological fluid within an exponentially expanding FLRW spacetime as the probability fluid of a nonrelativistic Schroedinger field. The scalar Schroedinger particle so described has a mass equal to the total (baryonic plus…
Study the behaviour and the evolution of the cosmological field equations in an homogeneous and anisotropic spacetime with two scalar fields coupled in the kinetic term. Specifically, the kinetic energy for the scalar field Lagrangian is…
In present paper, we search the existence of dark energy scalar field models within in $f(R, T)$ gravity theory established by Harko et al. (Phys. Rev. D 84, 024020, 2011) in a flat FRW universe. The correspondence between scalar field…
