The observational evidence regarding the present cosmological aspects tells us about the presence of very little anisotropy in the universe on a large scale. Here, in this paper, we attempt to study locally rotationally symmetric (LRS)…
In this paper we explore how far the post-Newtonian theory goes in overcoming the difficulties associated with anisotropic homogeneous cosmologies in the Newtonian approximation. It will be shown that, unlike in the Newtonian case, the…

We analyze if Bianchi I, V, and IX models in the Induced Gravity (IG) theory can evolve to a Friedmann--Roberson--Walker (FRW) expansion due to the non--minimal coupling of gravity and the scalar field. The analytical results that we found…
We find phase transitions and critical phenomena of the FRW (Friedmann-Robertson-Walker) universe in the framework of an effective scalar-tensor theory that belongs to the Horndeski class. We identify the thermodynamic pressure (generalized…
In the Bianchi I cosmology some subclasses of the Horndeski theory allow for the non-standard anisotropy behavior. For example, the anisotropy is damped near the initial singularity instead of tending to infinity. In this article, we…
The comprehensive formulation for loop quantum cosmology in the spatially flat, isotropic model was recently constructed. In this paper, the methods are extended to the anisotropic Bianchi I cosmology. Both the precursor and the improved…
