Extensions of Einstein's General Relativity (GR) can formally be given a GR structure in which additional geometric degrees of freedom are mapped on an effective energy-momentum tensor. The corresponding effective cosmic medium can then be…
Motivated by the growing interest in the nonmetricity-matter couplings, we develop the scalar-tensor formulation of recently introduced $f(Q,T)$ gravity, where $Q$ is the nonmetricity and $T$ is the trace of the energy-momentum tensor. The…
The standard formulation of General Relativity Theory, in the absence of a cosmological constant, is unable to explain the responsible mechanism for the observed late-time cosmic acceleration. On the other hand, by inserting the…
Large-scale peculiar motions are believed to reflect the local inhomogeneity and anisotropy of the universe, triggered by the ongoing process of structure formation. As a result, realistic observers do not follow the smooth Hubble flow but…

In homogeneous and isotropic Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmology, the topology of the universe determines its ultimate fate. If the Weak Energy Condition is satisfied, open and flat universes must expand forever, while closed cosmologies…

In this work, we present a phase space analysis of a spatially flat Friedmann $-$Robertson$-$Walker (FRW) model in which the dark matter fluid is modeled as an imperfect fluid having bulk viscosity. The bulk viscosity is governed by the…
We present a new model based on General Relativity in where a subtle change of curvature at late times is able to produce the observed Universe acceleration and an oscillating behavior in the effective equation of state. This model aims to…
General relativistic entropic acceleration theory may explain the present cosmic acceleration from first principles without the need of introducing a cosmological constant. Following the covariant formulation of non-equilibrium phenomena in…
We summarize recent results concerning the evolution of second order perturbations in flat dust irrotational FLRW models with $\Lambda\ne 0$. We show that asymptotically these perturbations tend to constants in time, in agreement with the…

Our Universe has an arrow of time. In accordance with the second law of thermodynamics, entropy has been increasing ever since the Big Bang. The fact that matter is in thermal equilibrium in the very early Universe, as indicated by the…
The no-hair theorem postulates that the only externally observable properties of a black hole are its mass, its electric charge, and its angular momentum. In scalar-tensor theories of gravity, a matter distribution around a black hole can…
