On the basis of hypotheses, that a density of weakly interacting particles in the Universe has an order of nuclear matter density or more the Lagrangian is offered, through which one can be obtained a propagator of a vector boson with a…
We revise the cosmological standard model presuming that matter, i.e. baryons and cold dark matter, exhibits a non-vanishing pressure mimicking the cosmological constant effects. In particular, we propose a scalar field Lagrangian $\mathcal…
We present a stable cosmological model of a closed universe in the presence of conventional scalar field. The stability of the model and absence of singularity is ensured by spatial curvature without the need for additional peculiar matter.…
We study the cosmological perturbations created during the New Higgs inflationary phase. In the New Higgs Inflation, the Higgs boson is kinetically coupled to the Einstein tensor and only three perturbative degrees of freedom, a scalar and…
We reconsider the toy model studied in [1] of a spatially closed Friedmann-Lemaitre universe, driven by a massive scalar field, which deflates quasi-exponentially, bounces and then enters a period of standard inflation. We find that the…
Cosmological perturbations are generally described by quantum fields on (curved but) classical space-times. While this strategy has a large domain of validity, it can not be justified in the quantum gravity era where curvature and matter…
We study the generation of primordial perturbations in a (single-field) slow-roll inflationary universe. In momentum space, these (Gaussian) perturbations are characterized by a zero mean and a non-zero variance $\Delta^2(k, t)$. However,…
In the general context of scalar-tensor theories, we consider a model in which a scalar field coupled to the Ricci scalar in the gravitational sector of the Lagrangian, is also playing the role of an ``Extended Quintessence'' field,…
A higher-order analysis of the evolution of cosmological perturbations in a Friedman universe is given by using the PMF method. The essence of the PMF approach is to choose a gauge where all fluctuations of the density, the pressure, and…
Recently a covariant approach to cold matter universes in the zero-shear hypersurfaces (or longitudinal) gauge has been developed. This approach reveals the existence of an integrability condition, which does not appear in standard…
Without invoking a perturbative expansion, we define the cosmological curvature perturbation, and consider its behaviour assuming that the universe is smooth over a sufficiently large comoving scale. The equations are simple, resembling…
In this study, we present the evolution of cosmological perturbations in a universe consisting of standard matter and interacting vacuum. We use the $1 + 3$ covariant formalism in perturbation framework and consider two different models for…
Scalar fields in the minimal supersymmetric standard model may have large field values during inflation. Because of approximate global symmetry, it is plausible that the phase directions of them are nearly massless during inflation and…
A mathematical model of the evolution of plane perturbations in the cosmological statistical system of completely degenerate scalar-charged fermions with Higgs scalar interaction for short-wave perturbations is formulated. These disturbance…
We consider perturbations in the isotropic and homogeneous cosmological model with the spatially flat Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker metric in the framework of the theory of gravity with non-minimal derivative coupling. The Lagrangian…
A simple model for the reheating of the universe after inflation is studied in which an essentially inhomogeneous scalar field representing matter is coupled to an essentially homogeneous scalar inflaton field. Through this coupling, the…
Observational cosmology is in its "golden age" with a vast amount of recent data on the distribution of matter and light in the universe. This data can be used to probe theories of the very early universe. It is small amplitude cosmological…
We consider the evolution of scalar perturbations in a class of non-singular bouncing universes obtained with higher-order corrections to the low-energy bosonic string action. We show that previous studies have relied on a singular…
For a scalar field $\phi$ coupled to cold dark matter (CDM), we provide a general framework for studying the background and perturbation dynamics on the isotropic cosmological background. The dark energy sector is described by a Horndeski…
Cosmological perturbation theory for the late Universe dominated by dark matter is extended beyond the perfect fluid approximation by taking the dark matter velocity dispersion tensor as an additional field into account. A proper tensor…
