Consistency relations between growth of structure and expansion history observables exist for any physical explanation of cosmic acceleration, be it a cosmological constant, scalar field quintessence, or a general component of dark energy…
We investigate the evolution of matter density perturbations within a fractional cosmological framework inspired by fractal space-time constructions in field theory, where a deformation of the integration measure induces non-locality and…
We consider spherically symmetric inhomogeneous dust models with a positive cosmological constant, $\Lambda$, given by the Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi metric. These configurations provide a simple but useful generalization of the Lambda-CDM model…
We analyze the claimed tension between redshift space distorsions measurements of $f(z)\sigma_8(z)$ and the predictions of standard $\Lambda$CDM (Planck 2015 and 2018) cosmology. We consider a dataset consisting of 17 data points extending…
The $\Lambda$CDM model successfully explains a wide range of cosmological observations; however, persistent discrepancies most notably the $H_0$ tension between early and late time measurements challenge its completeness. No proposed…

From observations at low and high redshifts, it is well known that the bulk of dark matter (DM) has to be stable or at least very long-lived. However, the possibility that a small fraction of DM is unstable or that all DM decays with a…
We study a dark energy cubic bi-Galileons field model based on truncation of the recently proposed generalized covariant multi-Galileons model. We investigate the cosmological dynamic of the model by the theory of dynamical systems through…
The tension between the Hubble constant obtained from the local measurements and from cosmic microwave background (CMB) measurements motivated us to consider the cosmological model beyond $\Lambda$CDM one. We investigate the cosmology in…
We investigate the observational implications of a gravitational model wherein the gravitational constant $G$ and the cosmological constant $\Lambda$ exhibit scale-dependent behavior at the perturbative level, while preserving the General…

We investigate a phenomenological extension of the standard $\Lambda$CDM framework, the $\Omega_1\Omega_2$-$\Lambda$CDM model, in which the total energy density of the universe is expanded in powers of $1+z$. This parameterization recovers…
Non-minimally coupled f(R) gravity model is an interesting approach to explain the late time acceleration of the Universe without introducing any exotic matter component in the energy budget of the Universe. But distinguishing such model…

Over the last decade, much attention has been given to the study of modified gravity theories to find a more natural explanation for the late-time acceleration of the Universe. Particular attention has focused on the so-called $f(R)$ dark…
