In this work we shall develop a quantitative approach for extracting predictions on the primordial gravitational waves energy spectrum for $f(R)$ gravity. We shall consider two distinct models which yield different phenomenology, one pure…
The expansion of the universe in $f(R,T)$ gravity is studied. By focusing on functions of the form $f(R,T)=f_1(R)+f_2(T)$, we assert that present day acceleration can be achieved if the functional form of $f_2(T)$ either grows slowly or…
We investigate the potential of gravitational-wave background searches to constrain cosmic histories characterised by a stiff equation of state, preceded by a period of matter domination. Such a scenario leads to a characteristic peak in…
Motivated by the fact that the pre-inflationary era may evolve in an exotic way, in this work we formalize anisotropic evolution in the context of modified gravity, focusing on pre-inflationary and near the vicinity of the inflationary…
We consider the large-scale cosmic structure generation by an inflation based on a pure f(R)-type gravity theory. Comparison with recent CMBR observations gives the following results: (1) The near Zel'dovich spectral conditions uniquely…
We consider a dynamic scenario for characterizing the late Universe evolution, aiming to mitigate the Hubble tension. Specifically, we consider a metric $f(R)$ gravity in the Jordan frame which is implemented to the dynamics of a flat…
We construct cosmological model in nonmetricity scalar functional gravitational Lagrangian $f(Q)$ which describes the dynamical evolution of the late accelerating universe. Cosmological models are constructed considering different…
Based on an earlier introduced new class of generalized gravity-matter models defined in terms of two independent non-Riemannian volume forms (alternative generally covariant integration measure densities) on the space-time manifold, we…
We perform a phase space analysis of a non-minimally coupled modified gravity theory with the Lagrangian density of the form $\frac{1}{2} f_{1}(R)+[1+\lambda f_{2}(R)]{{\cal{L}}_{m}}$, where $f_1(R)$ and $f_2(R)$ are arbitrary functions of…
In a primordial universe pre(post)-inflationary era , there could be phases of early universe made of cold gas baryons, radiation and early post inflationary cosmological constant. I showed that in the baryonic epoch, the quantum vacuum is…
We describe the primeval inflationary phase of the early Universe within a quantum field theoretical (QFT) framework that can be viewed as the effective action of vacuum decay in the early times. Interestingly enough, the model accounts for…
In this work, a way to consider together two originally different corrections to the Friedmann equations is presented. The first is the Barrow entropy, which imposes a fractal structure on the black hole horizon area. While the second is…
In this paper, using $f(R)$ theory of gravity we explicitly calculate cosmological evolution in the presence of a perfect fluid source in four and five dimensional, space time in which this cosmological evolution in self-creation is…
In this work we consider the realization of a variant emergent Universe scenario in the context of $f(R)$ gravity. We use well-known reconstruction techniques existing in the literature, and we find the approximate form of the vacuum $f(R)$…
We develop a comprehensive cosmological framework based on the principle that our universe originated as a three-dimensional spatial configuration governed purely by energy functionals, with time emerging dynamically through quantum loop…
This thesis investigates a toy model for inflation in a class of modified theories of gravity in the metric formalism. Instead of the standard procedure -- assuming a non-linear Lagrangian $f(R)$ in the Jordan frame -- we start from a…
On the occasion of a century from the proposal of General relativity by Einstein, I attempt to tackle some open issues in modern cosmology, via a toy but non-trivial model. Specifically, I would like to link together: (i) the smallness of…
Here $f(R)$-cosmology is discussed using a different approach. This model explains early-inflation, emergence of cosmic background radiation at the exit from inflation, cosmic deceleration during radiation-dominance followed by deceleration…
In the framework of polynomial Palatini cosmology, we investigate a simple cosmological homogeneous and isotropic model with matter in the Einstein frame. We show that in this model during cosmic evolution, it appears the early inflation…
Under the main assumption that the axion scalar field mainly composes the dark matter in the Universe, in this paper we shall extend the formalism of kinetic axion $R^2$ gravity to include Gauss-Bonnet terms non-minimally coupled to the…
