Observational constraints guide one forcefully to examine models in which the matter density is substantially less than critical density. Particularly noteworthy are those which are consistent with inflation. For these models, microwave…
The case for a flat Cold Dark Matter model with a positive cosmological constant $\Lambda$ has been recently strongly advocated by some theoreticians. In this paper we give the observers point of view to the light of the most recent…
We develop a novel analytical dynamical analysis to derive precise energy density ratio evolutions for the $\phi$CDM and $poly\Lambda$CDM models, comparing them to the standard $\Lambda$CDM model and validating against numerical solutions.…
The standard LambdaCDM model of cosmology is usually understood to arise from demanding that the Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) metric satisfy the General Relativity dynamics for spacetime metrics. The FLRW data-based dominant…
Observational tests for the Cosmological Principle are reviewed. Assuming the FRW metric we then summarize estimates of cosmological parameters from various data sets, in particular the Cosmic Microwave Background and the 2dF galaxy…

The generalized Chaplygin gas model is characterized by the equation of state $p = - \frac{A}{\rho^\alpha}$. It is generally stated that the case $\alpha = 0$ is equivalent to a model with cosmological constant and dust ($\Lambda CDM$). In…
Recent astronomical observations strongly indicate that the current Universe is undergoing an accelerated phase of expansion. The discovery of this fact was unexpected and resulted in the comeback of cosmological constant. The conception of…
This paper explores models of the FLRW universe that incorporate a time-varying cosmological term $\Lambda(t)$. Specifically, we assume a power-law form for the cosmological term as a function of the scale factor: $\Lambda(t)=\Lambda_{0}…
This paper deals with the cancellation mechanism, which identifies the energy density of space-time expansion in an empty universe with the zero-point energy density and avoids the scale discrepancy with the observed energy density…

The $R_h = ct$ cosmological model has received considerable attention in recent years owing to claims that it is favoured over the standard $\Lambda$ cold dark matter ($\Lambda$CDM) model by most observational data. A key feature of the…
