We have considered a cosmological model of the FRW universe with variable $G$ and $\Lambda$. The solutions have been obtained for flat model with particular form of cosmological constant. The cosmological parameters have also been obtained…
This paper treats nonrelativistic matter and a scalar field $\phi$ with a monotonically decreasing potential minimally coupled to gravity in flat Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker cosmology. The field equations are reformulated as a…
In a recent article, Kleidis and Spyrou (2015) proposed that both dark matter (DM) and dark energy (DE) can be treated as a single component, if accommodated in the context of a polytropic DM fluid with thermodynamical content. Depending…
We present an analysis of the pairwise velocity statistics from a suite of cosmological N-body simulations describing the "Running Friedmann-Lema\^itre-Robertson-Walker" (R-FLRW) cosmological model. This model is based on quantum field…
Motivated by the dawn of precision cosmology and the wealth of forthcoming high precision and volume galaxy surveys, in this paper we study the effects of inhomogeneities on light propagation in a flat \Lambda CDM background. To this end we…
In this work, we carry out a comprehensive perturbative analysis of four cosmological models featuring a sign-switching cosmological constant. Among these, we include the well-known $\Lambda_{\rm s}$CDM model, characterised by an abrupt…
It is shown how certain observations interpreted in the background of the Friedmann model with $\Lambda < 0 = k$ (the $\Lambda$CDM model) can be re-interpreted using the $\Lambda = 0$ Lema\^{\i}tre - Tolman (L-T) model so as to do away with…
This paper presents numerical solutions of particular Lemaitre-Tolman models approximating a fractal behaviour along the past light cone, as discussed in paper I (0807.0866) of this series. The initial conditions of the numerical problem…
We show that a cosmology driven by gravitationally induced particle production of all non-relativistic species existing in the present Universe mimics exactly the observed flat accelerating $\Lambda$CDM cosmology with just one dynamical…
We study the free motion of a massive particle moving in the background of a Finslerian deformation of a plane gravitational wave in Einstein's General Relativity. The deformation is a curved version of a one-parameter family of…
We consider a spacetime consisting of an empty void separated from an almost Friedmann-Lema\^\i tre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) dust universe by a spherically symmetric, slowly rotating shell which is comoving with the cosmic dust. We treat in…
In this article, we examine the dynamical evolution of flat FRW cosmological model in $f(R, L_m)$ gravity theory. We consider the general form of $f(R, L_m)$ defined as $f(R, L_m) = \Lambda + \frac{\alpha}{2} R + \beta L_m^n$, where…
Observational tests for the Cosmological Principle are reviewed. Assuming the FRW metric we then summarize estimates of cosmological parameters from various data sets, in particular the Cosmic Microwave Background and the 2dF galaxy…
We discover a linear relation between two sets of galaxy-lensing cross-correlations. This linear relation holds, as long as light follows the geodesic and the metric is Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW). Violation of the…
A review on spatially flat D-dimensional Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) model of the universe has been performed. Some standard parameterizations of the equation of state parameter of the Dark Energy models are proposed and the…
In this paper we have analyzed the Kaluza-Klein type Robertson Walker (RW) cosmological models by considering three different forms of variable $\Lambda$: $\Lambda\sim(\frac{\dot{a}}{a})^2$,$\Lambda\sim(\frac{\ddot{a}} {a})$ and $\Lambda…
We model the large scale late time universe as a Lambda-CDM cosmology driven by cosmological constant and perfect dust fluid. Our aim is to find new solutions in the matter and Lambda epoch consistent with inflationary initial conditions,…
We analyse the geodesics' dynamics in cylindrically symmetric vacuum spacetimes with Lambda>0 and compare it to the Lambda=0 and Lambda<0 cases. When Lambda>0 there are two singularities in the metric which brings new qualitative features…
Cold Dark Matter (CDM) models of galaxy formation had been remarkably successful to explain a number of observations in the past decade. However, with both the theoretical modeling and the observations being improved, CDM models have been…
