Starting from an anisotropic flat cosmological model(Bianchi type $I$), we show that conditions leading to isotropisation fall into 3 classes, respectively 1, 2, 3. We look for necessary conditions such that a Bianchi type $I$ model reaches…
We consider a warm inflationary scenario in which the two dominant matter components present in the early Universe, the scalar field, and the radiation fluid, evolve with different four-velocities. This cosmological system is mathematically…

In this paper, we study the dynamics of a Bianchi Type I potential in the presence of a concave potential of the form $V(\phi) = V_0 \left[1- \left( \frac{\phi}{\mu}\right)^n\right]$, where $V_0$ is a constant, and $\mu$ is a mass scale. We…
