Considering perturbation growth in spherical Top-Hat model of structure formation in a generalized Chaplygin gas dominated universe, we want to study this scenario with a modified Chaplygin gas model. The evolution of background and…
In this paper we study the perturbations of a cosmic multi-fluid medium consisting of radiation, dust and a Chaplygin gas. To do so, we follow the 1 + 3 covariant formalism and derive the evolution equations of the fluctuations in the…
Despite our present-day inability to predict the topology of the universe one may expect that we should be able to detect it in the near future, given the increasing accuracy in the astro-cosmological observations. Motivated by this, we…

The expansion of the Universe is accelerating, as testified by observations of supernovae of type Ia as a function of redshift. Explanations are of two types: modifications of Einstein gravity or new forms of energy, coined dark energy.The…
The generalized Chaplygin gas (GCG), which has an unusual perfect fluid equation of state, is another promising candidate for dark energy. We investigate the GCG scenario coupled with a baryonic matter in a newly suggested $f(Q,T)$ gravity,…
A huge amount of good quality data converges towards the picture of a spatially flat universe undergoing the today observed phase of accelerated expansion. This new observational trend is commonly addressed as Precision Cosmology. Despite…
The recent observational evidence for the current cosmic acceleration have stimulated renewed interest in alternative cosmologies, such as scenarios with interaction in the dark sector (dark matter and dark energy). In general, such models…
In this note, we test the original holographic dark energy model with some old high redshift objects. The main idea is very simple: the universe cannot be younger than its constituents. We find that the original holographic dark energy…
The discovery of accelerated Hubble expansion in the SNIa data and the observed power spectrum of the microwave background radiation provide an ample support for Dark energy and Dark matter. Except for the so far well-known facts that cold…
In this work we study in detail a phenomenological generalization of the Chaplygin cosmological model, which we call as \textit{umami} Chaplygin model. We consider three different cosmological background scenarios in which our fluid can…
We discuss the onset of the non-linear regime in the context of unified dark matter models involving a generalised Chaplygin gas. We show that the transition from dark matter-like to dark energy-like behaviour will never be smooth. In some…
We study the dependence of the location of the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation (CMBR) peaks on the parameters of the generalized Chaplygin gas model, whose equation of state is given by $p = - A/\rho^{\alpha}$, where $A$ is a positive…
To justify the twenty years old distant Ia Supernova observations which revealed to us that our universe is experiencing a late time cosmic acceleration, propositions of existence of exotic fluids inside our universe are made. These fluids…
Integrability conditions arising from general irrotational fluid-flow considerations of a universe dominated by cosmic dark fluids will be investigated under special assumptions on the nature of the spacetime shear. Special emphasis will be…
We consider a FRW cosmological model with an exotic fluid known as Chaplygin gas. We show that the resulting evolution of the universe is not in disagreement with the current observation of cosmic acceleration. The model predict an…

A model of unification of dark matter and dark energy based on the modeling of the speed of sound as a function of the parameter of the equation of state is introduced. It is found that the model in which the speed of sound depends on the…
