We investigate the coupling of matter to geometry in conformal quadratic Weyl gravity, by assuming a coupling term of the form $L_m\tilde{R}^2$, where $L_m$ is the ordinary matter Lagrangian, and $\tilde{R}$ is the Weyl scalar. The coupling…
We consider $f(R,T)$ modified theories of gravity in the context of string theory inspired dilaton gravity. We deal with a specific model that under certain conditions describes the late time Universe in accord with observational data in…
Gravitation is described in the context of a dilatonic theory that is conformally related to general relativity. All dimensionless ratios of fundamental dimensional quantities, e.g. particle masses and the Planck mass, as well as the…
A new class of modified theory of gravity is introduced where the volume form becomes dynamical. This approach is motivated by unimodular gravity and can also be related to Brans-Dicke theory. On the level of the action, the only change…
In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of the universe on the background of f-essence when a non-minimal coupling with gravity. Field equations are obtained and using the Noether theorem, explicit forms of the coupling function and the…
Gravitational merging (or clustering) of cosmic objects is regarded as a possible source of the extra-acceleration of the universe at large scale. The merging/clustering of cosmic objects introduces a correction term in the equation of…
The essence of the method of physics is inseparably connected with the problem of interplay between local and global properties of the universe. In the present paper we discuss this interplay as it is present in three major departments of…
We consider a generic cosmological model which allows for non-gravitational direct couplings between dark matter and dark energy. The distinguishing cosmological features of these couplings can be probed by current cosmological…
Reformulation of the Dirac equation in terms of the real Spacetime Algebra (STA) reveals hidden geometric structure, including a geometric role for the unit imaginary as generator of rotations in a spacelike plane. The STA and the real…
Current cosmological data favour inflationary models non-minimally coupled to gravity. In this work we study the implications of the metastability of the electroweak vacuum in this framework. We consider an inflaton field with a non-minimal…
We attempt to construct a gravitational coupling by pre-selecting an energy-momentum tensor as the source for gravitational field. The energy-momentum tensor we take is a recently derived new expression motivated by joint localization of…
In recent years, Rastall gravity is undergoing a considerable surge in popularity. This theory purports to be a modified gravity theory with a non-conserved energy-momentum tensor ({\rm EMT}) and an unusual non-minimal coupling between…
In this letter, cosmology of a simple NMDC gravity with $\xi R \phi_{,\mu}\phi^{,\mu}$ term and a free kinetic term is considered in flat geometry and in presence of dust matter. A logarithm field transformation $\phi' = \mu \ln \phi$ is…
In de Rham-Gabadadze-Tolley (dRGT) massive gravity and bigravity, a non-minimal matter coupling involving both metrics generically re-introduces the Boulware--Deser (BD) ghost. A non-minimal matter coupling via a simple, yet specific…
We investigate the models of cosmological inflation in generalized scalar-tensor gravity, which we consider as a source of deviation from de Sitter dynamics in the case of GR. Within the framework of the proposed approach, the exact…
In this study we prove that the Pauli interaction -- which is associated with a length parameter -- emerges when the minimal coupling recipe is applied to the non-degenerate version of the Dirac Lagrangian. The conventional Dirac Lagrangian…
We consider vacuum decay in the presence of a non-minimal coupling to gravity. We extend the usual thin-wall solution to include the non-minimal coupling. We also perform a full numerical study and discuss the validity of the new thin-wall…
We investigate a phenomenological non-gravitational coupling between dark energy and dark matter, where the interaction in the dark sector is parameterized as an energy transfer either from dark matter to dark energy or the opposite. The…
We study flat Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker cosmological models for a scalar field coupled nonminimally to teleparallel gravity with generic coupling and potential functions. The goal of this paper is to determine the conditions under…
In this paper, we show that there exists a class of dilaton models with non-trivial scalar-Ricci and scalar-matter couplings that strongly reduces observational deviations from general relativity in the dust limit. Essentially, depending on…
