Observations indicate that our universe is characterized by a late-time accelerating phase, possibly driven by a cosmological constant $\Lambda$, with the dimensionless parameter $\Lambda L_P^2 \simeq 10^{-122}$, where $L_P = (G \hbar…
We investigate the effect of a cosmological constant $\Lambda$ on the geometry generated by a two-dimensional disclination in a conformal metric framework. For $\Lambda>0$, we obtain an exact analytic solution of the Liouville-type…

The (n +1)-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet (EGB) model is considered. For diagonal cosmological metrics, the equations of motion are written as a set of Lagrange equations with the effective Lagrangian containing two "minisuperspace"…
In this paper, we consider a cosmological model in $ f(R, G) $ gravity in a flat space-time, where $ R $ is the Ricci scalar and $ G $ is the Gauss-Bonnet invariant. The function $ f(R, G) $ is taken as a linear combination of $ R $ and an…
