This paper concerns the generation and evolution of the cosmological (large-scale $\sim Mpc$) magnetic fields in an inflationary universe. The universe during inflation is represented by de Sitter space-time. We started with the Maxwell…
In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of Born-Infeld(B-I) phantom model in the $\omega-\omega'$ plane, which is defined by the equation of state parameter for the dark energy and its derivative with respect to $N$(the logarithm of the…

It has been shown that four dimensional Brans-Dicke theory with effective matter field and self interacting potential can be achieved from vacuum 5D BD field equations, where we refer to as modified Brans-Dicke theory (MBDT). We investigate…

In this paper, we have considered various dark energy models in the framework of a non-canonical scalar field with a Lagrangian density of the form ${\cal L}(\phi, X)=f(\phi)X{\left(\frac{X}{M^{4}_{Pl}}\right)}^{\alpha -1} - V(\phi)$, which…
In this paper, we examine the cosmological viability of a slow moving galileon field in a potential. The Lagrangian $\cal{L}$ $ =-\frac{1}{2}g^{\mu\nu}\pi_{;\mu}\pi_{;\nu} +\frac{G^{\mu\nu}}{2M^2}\pi_{;\mu}\pi_{;\nu}$ respects the galileon…
In the last few years there has been some interest in WIMP Dark Matter models featuring a velocity dependent cross section through the Sommerfeld enhancement mechanism, which is a nonrelativistic effect due to massive bosons in the dark…
Within an algebraic framework, used to construct the induced-matter-theory (IMT) setting, in $(D+1)$-dimensional Brans-Dicke (BD) scenario, we obtain a modified BD theory (MBDT) in $D$ dimensions. Being more specific, from the…
We discuss the cosmological implications of an extended Brans-Dicke theory presented recently, in which there is an energy exchange between the scalar field and ordinary matter, determined by the theory. A new mass scale is generated in the…
We introduce a new class of interacting dark sector models that couple the intrinsic entropy of dark matter to scalar field dark energy. Using the Lagrangian formulation for relativistic perfect fluids, we construct consistent covariant…

The accelerated expansion of the universe has been widely confirmed, posing challenges to the standard $\Lambda$CDM model, particularly the cosmological coincidence problem. This has motivated the exploration of modified gravity theories,…

We present a novel approach to modified theories of gravity that consists of adding to the Einstein-Hilbert Lagrangian an f(R) term constructed a la Palatini. Using the respective dynamically equivalent scalar-tensor representation, we show…
