The fact that the energy densities of dark energy and matter are similar currently, known as the coincidence problem, is one of the main unsolved problems of cosmology. We present here a model in which a spatial curvature of the universe…
We present an approximate solution to the minimally coupled Einstein-Dirac equations. We interpret the solution as describing a massive fermion coexisting with its own gravitational field. The solution is axisymmetric but is time dependent.…
In this paper, we have analyzed the geometrical and dynamical parameters of $\mathcal{F}(R, \mathcal{G})=\alpha R^2 \mathcal{G}^\beta$ cosmological model, ($R$, $\mathcal{G}$ being the Ricci scalar and Gauss-Bonnet invariant respectively),…
In the framework of polynomial Palatini cosmology, we investigate a simple cosmological homogeneous and isotropic model with matter in the Einstein frame. We show that in this model during cosmic evolution, it appears the early inflation…
General equations of the unified field theory, obtained using the curved and torsional space-time, are presented. They contain only independent geometrical parameters (metric and connections) of the metric-affine space, and describe the…
We use astrophysical data to shed light on fundamental physics by constraining parametrized theoretical cosmological and gravitational models. Gravitational parameters are those constants that parametrize possible departures from Einstein's…
We investigate the leading-order behavior of matter fields in the preinflationary era using the semiclassical approximation. Many inflationary models assume without supporting arguments that the Universe was radiation dominated prior to…
The suggestion that we occupy a privileged position near the centre of a large, nonlinear, and nearly spherical void has recently attracted much attention as an alternative to dark energy. Putting aside the philosophical problems with this…
In an attempt to generalize general relativity, we propose a new Hermitian theory of gravity. Space-time is generalized to space-time-momentum-energy and both the principles of general covariance and equivalence are extended. The theory is…
This thesis focuses on late-time cosmic acceleration within modified theories of gravity, using various observational data sets and statistical analysis. The Universe is assumed to be spatially homogeneous and isotropic and is described by…
The cosmology of metric-affine gravity is studied for the general, parity preserving action quadratic in curvature, torsion and non-metricity. The model contains 27 a priori independent couplings in addition to the Einstein constant. Linear…
A framework is introduced which explains the existence and similarities of most exact solutions of the Einstein equations with a wide range of sources for the class of hypersurface-homogeneous spacetimes which admit a Hamiltonian…
We present a unified evolution of the universe from very early times until the present epoch by including both the leading local correction $R^2$ and the leading non-local term $R\frac{1}{\square^2}R$ to the classical gravitational action.…
In this work, we apply the smooth deformation concept in order to obtain a modification of Friedmann equations. It is shown that the cosmic coincidence can be at least alleviated using the dynamical properties of the extrinsic curvature. We…
From higher dimensional theories, e.g. string theory, one expects the presence of non-minimally coupled scalar fields. We review the notion of conformal frames in cosmology and emphasize their physical equivalence, which holds at least at a…
Using techniques from singular perturbation theory, we explicitly calculate the cosmological evolution in a class of modified gravity models. By considering the (m)CDTT model, which aims to explain the current acceleration of the universe…
In a recent work, we demonstrated that a modified gravity model in which a scalar "darkon" field is coupled to both the standard Riemannian metric and to another non-Riemannian volume form is compatible with observational data from…
The existence of a cosmic neutrino background -- the analogue of the cosmic microwave background -- is a fundamental prediction of standard big bang cosmology. Up to now, the observational evidence for its existence is rather indirect and…
Assuming the universe is spatially homogeneous on the largest scales lays the foundation for almost all cosmology. This idea is based on the Copernican principle, that we are not at a particularly special place in the universe.…
Dynamo action is shown to be induced from homogeneous non-minimal photon-torsion axial coupling in the quantum electrodynamics (QED) framework in Riemann flat spacetime contortion decays. The geometrical optics in Riemann-Cartan spacetime…
