We study a gravitational model in which scale transformations play the key role in obtaining dynamical $G$ and $\Lambda$. We take a scale non-invariant gravitational action with a cosmological constant and a gravitational coupling constant.…

It is well-known that quantum field theory (QFT) induces a huge value of the cosmological constant, $\Lambda$, which is outrageously inconsistent with cosmological observations. We review here some aspects of this fundamental theoretical…
Models of the very early universe, including inflationary models, are argued to produce varying universe domains with different values of fundamental constants and cosmic parameters. Using the cosmological hydrodynamical simulation code…
We investigate the dynamics of the generalized $\Lambda$CDM model, which the $\Lambda$ term is running with the cosmological time. The $\Lambda(t)$ term emerges from the covariant theory of the scalar field $\phi$ with the self-interacting…
A linear evolution of the cosmological scale factor is a feature in several models designed to solve the cosmological constant problem via a coupling between scalar or tensor classical fields to the space-time curvature as well as in some…
We intend to study a new class of cosmological models in $f(R, T)$ modified theories of gravity, hence define the cosmological constant $\Lambda$ as a function of the trace of the stress energy-momentum-tensor $T$ and the Ricci scalar $R$,…

A low matter density decaying vacuum cosmology is proposed on the assumption that the universe's radius is a complex quantity \hat{R} if it is regarded as having a zero energy-momentum tensor. But we find that when the radius is real, it…
This work examines the cosmological implications of two functional forms of $f(R,T) = R + \alpha T^n$ gravity: for two different value of $n $ where $n=1$ and $n\neq 1$, and $\alpha$ and $n$ are free parameters. The modified Friedmann…
We consider a cosmological model dominated by stiff fluid with a constant bulk viscosity. We classify all the possible cases of the universe predicted by the model and analyzing the scale factor, density as well as the curvature scalar. We…
In relativistic inhomogeneous cosmology, structure formation couples to average cosmological expansion. A conservative approach to modelling this assumes an Einstein--de Sitter model (EdS) at early times and extrapolates this forward in…
Recently, there have been claims in the literature that the cosmological constant problem can be dynamically solved by specific compactifications of gravity from higher-dimensional toy models. These models have the novel feature that in the…
We probe the cosmic expansion scenario within the framework of $f(R, L_{m})$ gravity by employing a well-motivated functional form of $f(R, L_{m}) = \frac{R}{2} + L_{m}^{\lambda}$. Specifically, we introduce three novel cosmological models…
We investigate the cosmological consequences of the modified Friedmann equations when the entropy associated with the apparent horizon, given by Barrow entropy, $S\sim A^{1+\delta/2}$, where $0\leq\delta\leq1$, represents the amount of the…
Thanks to new technology of observations and fresh inputs from particle physics, cosmology has advanced on both observational and theoretical fronts. It is therefore opportune that we take stock of the cosmological situation today and…
Considering space--time to be non-commutative, we study the evolution of the universe employing the approach of Newtonian cosmology. Generalizing the conservation of energy and the first law of thermodynamics to $\kappa$-deformed…
In this paper, we examine the universe's expansion in $ f(R, L_{m}) $ gravity for a particular form of $ f(R, L_{m})=\frac{R}{2}+L_{m}^{n}$. The field equations for flat FLRW metric with matter Lagrangian $ L_{m}=\rho$ are derive. Hubble…
We extend the usual gravitational action principle by promoting the bare cosmological constant (CC) from a parameter to a field which can take many possible values. Variation leads to a new integral constraint equation which determines the…
