We re-investigate how generic off-diagonal cosmological solutions depending, in general, on all spacetime coordinates can be constructed in massive and f-modified gravity using the anholonomic frame deformation method. There are constructed…

We study a Randall-Sundrum cosmological scenario consisting of a domain wall in anti-de Sitter space with a strongly coupled large $N$ conformal field theory living on the wall. The AdS/CFT correspondence allows a fully quantum mechanical…

In the present work we present the full treatment of scalar and vector cosmological perturbations in a non-singular bouncing universe in the context of metric $f(R)$ cosmology. Scalar metric perturbations in $f(R)$ cosmology were previously…

The effective field theory (EFT) of cosmic acceleration provides a model-independent framework for describing dark energy and modified gravity, yet many of its defining operators remain weakly constrained by existing observations. We show…

Analytical computations in relativistic cosmology can be split into two sets: time evolution relating the initial conditions to the observer's light-cone and light propagation to obtain observables. Cosmological perturbation theory in the…

Metric $f(R)$ gravity theories are conformally equivalent to models of quintessence in which matter is coupled to dark energy. We derive a condition for stable tracker solution for metric $f(R)$ gravity in the Einstein frame. We find that…

We investigate a spatially flat FLRW cosmological model in the framework of modified gravity described by the function \( f(R, L_m) = \alpha R + L_m^\beta + \gamma \), where \( L_m \) is the matter Lagrangian density. The modified Friedmann…

We explore full-shape analysis with simulation-based priors, which is the simplest approach to galaxy clustering data analysis that combines effective field theory (EFT) on large scales and numerical simulations on small scales. The core…

We study the cosmological evolution of a scalar field that couples to the trace $T=T^{a}_a$ of energy momentum tensor of all the fields (including itself). In the case of a shallow exponential potential, the presence of coupling to the…

We study $f(T)$ cosmological models inserting a non-vanishing spatial curvature and discuss its consequences on cosmological dynamics. To figure this out, a polynomial $f(T)$ model and a double torsion model are considered. We first analyze…

A late epoch cosmic acceleration may be naturally entangled with cosmic coincidence -- the observation that at the onset of acceleration the vacuum energy density fraction nearly coincides with the matter density fraction. In this Letter we…
