The rising concern in the Hubble constant tension ($H_0$ tension) of the cosmological models motivates the scientific community to search for alternative cosmological scenarios that could resolve the $H_0$ tension. In this regard, we aim to…
We perform a study of cosmic evolution with an equation of state parameter $\omega(t)=\omega_0+\omega_1(t\dot H/H)$ by selecting a phenomenological $\Lambda$ model of the form, $\dot\Lambda\sim H^3$. This simple proposition explains both…
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…
Despite our present-day inability to predict the topology of the universe it is expected that we should be able to detect it in the near future. A nontrivial detectable topology of the space section of the universe can be probed for all…
In this paper we will list a few important goals that need to be addressed in the next decade, also taking into account the current discordances between the different cosmological probes, such as the disagreement in the value of the Hubble…
Spatial averaging and time evolving are non-commutative operations in General Relativity, which questions the reliability of the FLRW model. The long standing issue of the importance of backreactions induced by cosmic inhomogeneities is…
We consider a cosmology in which a spherically symmetric large scale inhomogeneous enhancement or a void are described by an inhomogeneous metric and Einstein's gravitational equations. For a flat matter dominated universe the inhomogeneous…
The problem of matching different regions of spacetime in order to construct inhomogeneous cosmological models is investigated in the context of Lagrangian theories of gravity constructed from general analytic functions f(R), and from…
Models where Dark Matter and Dark Energy interact with each other have been proposed to solve the coincidence problem. We review the motivations underlying the need to introduce such interaction, its influence on the background dynamics and…
Cosmological datasets have great potential to elucidate the nature of dark energy and test gravity on the largest scales available to observation. Theoretical predictions can be computed with hi_class (www.hiclass-code.net), an accurate,…
Holographic dark energy models have been recently suggested which most clearly show that accelerating cosmology appears to be incompatible with mathematically consistent formulations of fundamental theories such as string/M theories. In…
In a previous paper, we proposed a heterotic dark energy model, called $\Lambda$HDE, in which dark energy is composed of two components: cosmological constant (CC) and holographic dark energy (HDE). The aim of this work is to give a more…
We study perturbation of holographic dark energy and find it be stable. We study the fate of the universe when interacting holographic dark energy is present, and discuss a simple phenomenological classification of the interacting…
The non-linearity of Einstein's equations makes it possible for small-scale matter inhomogeneities to affect the Universe at cosmological distances. We study the size of such effects using a simple heuristic model that captures the most…
The inverse problem with Lema\^itre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) universe models is discussed. The LTB solution for the Einstein equations describes the spherically symmetric dust-filled spacetime. The LTB solution has two physical functional degrees…
We pursue a program to confront observations with inhomogeneous extensions of the FLRW metric. The main idea is to test the Copernican principle rather than assuming it a priori. We consider the $\Lambda$CDM model endowed with a spherical…
We propose that dark energy in the form of a scalar field could effectively couple to dark matter inhomogeneities. Through this coupling energy could be transferred to/from the scalar field, which could possibly enter an accelerated regime.…
In order to infer the impact of the small-scale physics to the large-scale properties of the universe, we use a series of cosmological $N$-body simulations of self-gravitating matter inhomogeneities to measure, for the first time, the…
We reverse the logic behind the apparent existence of $H_0$-tension, to design diagnostics for cosmological models. The basic idea is that the non-constancy of $H_0$ inferred from observations at different redshifts is a null hypothesis…
The recent analysis of the Planck results reveals a tension between the best fits for ({\Omega}m0, H0) derived from the cosmic microwave background or baryonic acoustic oscillations on the one hand, and the Hubble diagram on the other hand.…
