Cosmological Perturbations from Cosmic Strings [PDF]
Some aspects of the theory of cosmological perturbations from cosmic strings and other topological defects are outlined, with particular reference to a simple example: a spatially flat CDM-dominated universe.

ONE-DIMENSIONAL SIMULATIONS OF INHOMOGENEITY GROWTH IN PRESSURELESS GRAVITATING MATTER
We study a model of the inhomogeneity growth in the Universe filled with a pressureless matter. The standard hydrodynamical equations for the cosmological perturbations in the comoving frame are treated taking into account all nonlinear terms.

Nonconservative unimodular gravity: a viable cosmological scenario?
In this work we review the issue of imposing the conservation of the energy–momentum tensor as a necessary condition to recover the equivalence between the unimodular gravity and General Relativity (GR) equipped with a cosmological constant.

Cosmological Perturbations via Quantum Corrections in M-Theory
In the early universe, it is important to take into account the quantum effect of gravity to explain the feature of inflation. In this paper, we consider the M-theory effective action which consists of 11-dimensional supergravity and (Weyl)4 terms.

Brane World Cosmological Perturbations
We consider a brane world and its gravitational linear perturbations. We present a general solution of the perturbations in the bulk and find the complete perturbed junction conditions for generic brane dynamics. We also prove that (spin 2) gravitational

Cosmological perturbations in generalised dark Lagrangians
We describe a new method to parameterise dark energy theories including massive gravity, elastic dark energy and tensor-metric theories. We first examine the existing framework which describes any second order Lagrangian which depends on the variation of

Non-linear stability of α′-corrected Friedmann equations
We study the non-linear stability of fixed-point solutions to the α′-exact equations from O(d, d) invariant cosmology, with and without matter perturbations.

Scalar perturbations in cosmological f(R) models: the cosmic screening approach
We investigate cosmological perturbations for nonlinear f(R) models within the cosmic screening approach. Matter is considered both in the form of a set of discrete point-like massive bodies and in the form of a continuous pressureless perfect fluid.

Magnetized cosmological perturbations [PDF]
A large-scale cosmic magnetic field affects not only the growth of density perturbations, but also rotational instabilities and anisotropic deformation in the density distribution.

Dependence of Inflationary Reconstruction upon Cosmological Parameters
The inflationary potential and its derivatives determine the spectrum of scalar and tensor metric perturbations that arise from quantum fluctuations during inflation.
