A cosmological constant, Lambda, is the most natural candidate to explain the origin of the dark energy (DE) component in the Universe. However, due to experimental evidence that the equation of state (EOS) of the DE could be evolving with…
Everpresent $\Lambda$ is a cosmological scenario in which the observed cosmological "constant" $\Lambda$ fluctuates between positive and negative values with a vanishing mean, and with a magnitude comparable to the critical density at any…
The hypothesis is discussed that our universe is really 5--dimensional with a nonzero cosmological constant that produces a large negative curvature. In this scenario, the observable flat 4--dimensional universe is identified with the…
We study phantom and inflationary cosmologies using form-invariance transformations of the Einstein equations with respect to $\rho$, $H$, $a$ and $p$, from a 5D vacuum. Equations of state and squared fluctuations of the inflaton and…
Instead of assuming a form of gravity and demand cosmology fit with $\Lambda CDM$, a potentially `viable' $f(R)$ gravity model is derived assuming an alternative model of cosmology. Taking the `designer' approach to $f(R)$, a new class of…
The paper deals with the scale discrepancy between the observed vacuum energy in cosmology and the theoretical quantum vacuum energy (cosmological constant problem). Here, we demonstrate that Einstein's equation and an analogy to particle…
In this paper we examine cosmological weak lensing on non-linear scales and show that there are Newtonian and relativistic contributions and that the latter can also be extracted from standard Newtonian simulations. We use the…
We consider a higher dimensional gravity theory with a negative kinetic energy scalar field and a cosmological constant. We find that the theory admits an exact cosmological solution for the scale factor of our universe. It has the feature…
A scale-dependent cosmological constant $\Lambda$ and the Newton constant G emerge naturally in quantum field theory in a curved space-time background leading to renormalization group running cosmologies. A scale-setting procedure is…
We study the value of cosmological constant in de Sitter brane embedded in five dimensions with positive, vanishing and negative bulk cosmological constant. In the case of negative bulk cosmological constant, we show that not zero but tiny…
Following fresh attempts to resolve the problem of the energy density of the vacuum, we reconsider the case where the cosmological constant is derived from a higher-dimensional version of general relativity, and interpret the…
We investigate the cosmological predictions of several $f(T)$ models, with up to two parameters, at both the background and the perturbation levels. Using current cosmological observations (geometric supernovae type Ia, cosmic microwave…
The (re)introduction of $\Lambda$ into cosmology has spurred debates that touch on central questions in philosophy of science, as well as the foundations of general relativity and particle physics. We provide a systematic assessment of the…
We discuss a class of uniform and isotropic, spatially flat, decaying Lambda cosmologies, in the realm of a model where the gravitation constant G is a function of the cosmological time. Besides the usual de Sitter solution, the models at…
It is described dynamics of a large class of accelerating cosmological models in terms of dynamical systems of the Newtonian type. The evolution of the models is reduced to the motion of a particle in a potential well parameterized by the…
A cosmologically viable hypergeometric model in the modified gravity theory $f(R)$ is found from the need for asintoticity towards $\Lambda$CDM, the existence of an inflection point in the $f(R)$ curve, and the conditions of viability given…
Einsteins gravity with a cosmological constant $\Lambda$ in four dimensions can be reformulated as a $\lambda \phi^4$ theory characterized solely by the dimensionless coupling $\lambda \propto G_N \Lambda$ ($G_N$ being Newton's constant).…
We discuss the cosmological consequences of an interacting model in the dark sector in which the $\Lambda$ component evolves as a truncated power series of the Hubble parameter. In order to constrain the free parameters of the model we…
We address the question how to adapt cosmological constant $\Lambda$ for description of a vacuum dark energy density jumping from the big initial value to the small today value suggested by observations. We find such a possibility in the…
According to the holographic principle, the maximum amount of information stored in a region of space scales as the area of its two-dimensional surface, like a hologram. We show that the holographic principle can be understood heuristically…
