We investigated the stability condition in $f(T,\phi)$ gravity theory for considering two models by using dynamical system. We assume the forms of $G(T)$ are $(i)$ $G(T)$ = $\alpha T+\frac{\beta}{T}$, $(ii)$ $G(T)$ = $\zeta T$ ln$(\psi T)$,…

A dynamical theory is studied in which a scalar field $\phi$ in Einstein- Minkowski space is coupled to the four-velocity $N_{\mu}$ of a preferred inertial observer in that space. As a consistent requirement on this coupling we study a…

A static non-singular 10-dimensional closed Friedmann universe of Planck size, filled with a perfect fluid with an equation of state with w = -2/3, can arise spontaneously by a quantum fluctuation from nothing in 11-dimensional spacetime. A…

We study the quantization of some cosmological models within the theory of N=1 supergravity with a positive cosmological constant. We find, by imposing the supersymmetry and Lorentz constraints, that there are no physical states in the…

We consider the cosmological evolution of a bulk scalar field and ordinary matter living on the brane world in the light of the constraints imposed by the matter dominated cosmological evolution and a small cosmological constant now. We…

The observed cosmological constant may originate as the minimum value $U_{min}$ of a scalar field potential, where the scalar field is frozen due to a large mass. If this vacuum is metastable, it may decay to a true vacuum either at present…
