Self-similarity induced by critical gravitational collapse is used as a paradigm to probe the mass distribution of subsolar objects. At large mass (solar mass and above) there is widespread agreement as to both the form and parameter values…
The study addresses matter-coupled modified gravity, particularly $f (T, \mathcal{T})$ gravity, unveiling distinct formalism. The research further discusses stability analysis, and the dynamical system approach, exploring the dynamics of…
We give a Lagrangian formulation for the theory of Rastall of gravitation. After proposing a Lagrangian density that reproduces the equations of motion postulated by Rastall, we study the cosmological consequences and fit the parameters…
The Press-Schechter theory of the cosmological mass function and its modifications allow to constraint cosmological scenarios of the structure formation. Recently a few new models have been suggested that explored the influence of…
Loop quantum gravity and cosmology are reviewed with an emphasis on evaluating the dynamics, rather than constructing it. The three crucial parts of such an analysis are (i) deriving effective equations, (ii) controlling the theory's…
In this Chapter I review the role that galaxy clusters play as tools to constrain cosmological parameters. I will concentrate mostly on the application of the mass function of galaxy clusters, while other methods, such as that based on the…
The cosmological models in the frame of the Newtonian and general relativistic treatments are considered. The centrifugal forces acting between particles rotating randomly around each other are shown to be able to reverse gravitational…
This is a review of the physics and cosmology of the cosmological constant. Focusing on recent developments, I present a pedagogical overview of cosmology in the presence of a cosmological constant, observational constraints on its…
We investigate the cosmological applications of new gravitational scalar-tensor theories, which are novel modifications of gravity possessing 2+2 propagating degrees of freedom, arising from a Lagrangian that includes the Ricci scalar and…
The cosmological many-body problem is effectively an infinite system of gravitationally interacting masses in an expanding universe. Despite the interactions' long-range nature, an analytical theory of statistical mechanics describes the…
A very short, non-technical review of the main problems which are presently open in the context of the gravitational theory and of its cosmological applications, and which are currently under investigation and deep discussion. We will talk…
We present a detailed investigation of the cosmological dynamics based on $\exp (-R/{\Lambda})$ gravity. We apply the dynamical system approach to both the vacuum and matter cases and obtain exact solutions and their stability in the finite…
We study cosmological evolutions of the generalized model of nonlinear massive gravity in which the graviton mass is given by a rolling scalar field and is varying along time. By performing dynamical analysis, we derive the critical points…
We investigate some modifications to the Press & Schechter (1974) (PS) prescription resulting from shear and tidal effects. These modifications rely on more realistic treatments of the collapse process than the standard approach based on…
This talk was in response to the conference injunction to present "one bold but half-baked idea that you have been thinking about recently.. .". After a brief introduction to the ideas and formalism of the CSL theory of dynamical wave…
A brief introduction to theories of the gravitational field with a Lagrangian that is a function of the scalar curvature is given. The emphasis will be placed in formal developments, while comparison to observation will be discussed in the…
The present article investigates the possibility of reconstruction of the generic function in $F(\mathcal{R},T)$ gravitational theory by considering some well-known cosmological bouncing models namely exponential evaluation, oscillatory,…
The purpose of these lecture notes is to describe the gravitational lens effects in different astrophysical contexts. These notes are voluntarily focused on the fundamental mechanisms and the basic concepts that are useful to describe these…
The mass distribution of halos, as specified by the halo mass function, is a key input for several cosmological probes. The sizes of $N$-body simulations are now such that, for the most part, results need no longer be statistics-limited,…
An overview is given of the current status of the theory and observations of the acceleration of the expansion of the observable part of the Universe. Contents 1. Historical Introduction 2. Friedmann equations and cosmological acceleration…
