In this paper, $F(\nu)$ cosmology is proposed for the accelerating universe with asymptotic de Sitter expansion in terms of Hankel function index $\nu$. To some extent, both the initial expansion during early inflation and the current…
In this work, we obtained exact solutions of Einstein's field equations for plane symmetric cosmological models by assuming that thy admit conformal motion. The space-time geometry of these solutions is found to be nonsingular, non-vacuum…
We construct the effective field theory of a perfect fluid in the early universe. Focusing on the case where the fluid has the equation of state of radiation, we show that it may lead to corrections to the background dynamics that can…
Since the advent of inflation, several theorems have been proven suggesting that although inflation can (and generically does) continue eternally into the future, it cannot be extended eternally into the past to create a ``steady-state''…
We study perfect fluid cosmological models with a constant equation of state parameter $\gamma$ in which there are two naturally defined time-like congruences, a geometrically defined geodesic congruence and a non-geodesic fluid congruence.…
We investigate a cosmological model in which the Stueckelberg fields are non-minimally coupled to the scalar curvature in a gauge invariant manner. We present not only a solution that can be considered in the context of the late time…
We propose a large class of nonsingular cosmologies of arbitrary spatial curvature whose cosmic history is determined by a primeval dynamical $\Lambda (t)$-term. For all values of the curvature, the models evolve between two extreme de…
We propose a topological inflation model in supergravity. In this model, the vacuum expectation value (VEV) of a scalar field takes a value much larger than the gravitational scale $M_{G} \simeq 2.4 \times 10^{18}$ GeV, which is large…

In this paper we present a model for accelerated expansion of the universe, both during inflation and the present stage of the expansion, from four dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ supergravity. We evaluate the tensor-to-scalar ratio ($r\approx…
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 consider cosmological inflation generated by a scalar field slowly rolling off from a de Sitter maximum of its potential. The models belong to the class of hilltop models and represent the most general model of this kind in which the…
Single-field models of accelerated expansion with nearly flat potentials, despite being able to provide observationally viable explanations for the early-time cosmic inflation and the late-time cosmic acceleration, are in strong tension…
In this work we explore a new cosmological solution for an universe filled with one dissipative fluid, described by a barotropic EoS $p = \omega \rho$, in the framework of the full Israel-Stewart theory. The form of the bulk viscosity has…
We propose the unified description of the early acceleration (cosmological inflation) and the present epoch of so called "dark energy". The inflation can be described by cosmic fluid with van der Waals equation of state and with viscosity…

In an induced-gravity model, the stability condition of an inflationary slow-rollover solution is shown to be $\phi_0 \partial_{\phi_0}V(\phi_0)=4V(\phi_0)$. The presence of higher derivative terms will, however, act against the stability…
