It is shown in detail that the dynamics of the Einstein-dilaton-p-form system in the vicinity of a spacelike singularity can be asymptotically described, at a generic spatial point, as a billiard motion in a region of Lobachevskii space (realized as an hyperboloid in the space of logarithmic scale factors). This is done within the Hamiltonian formalism,

Comparison of the relationship between cosmology and political thought in ancient Iran and ancient Greece. [PDF]
We know that political thought in Iran and the West has grown in two different contexts. In Iran, political thought is in the context of religious cosmology and in the West, in the context of philosophical cosmology.

The concept of fractal cosmos, I: Anaxagoras’ cosmology [PDF]
The concept of a fractal cosmos occupies a prominent position in the modern cosmology. We trace the development of this concept from the presocratic Greece to the present state of affairs.

An exploratory study of the cosmology of moduli in string theory. Moduli are argued to be natural inflaton fields and lead to a robust inflationary cosmology in which inflation takes place at the top of domain walls. The amplitude of microwave background fluctuations constrains the dynamics responsible for inflation to take place at a higher scale than

Emergent cosmology from matrix theory
Matrix theory is a proposed non-perturbative definition of superstring theory in which space is emergent. We begin a study of cosmology in the context of matrix theory.

Precision cosmology, Accuracy cosmology and Statistical cosmology [PDF]
AbstractThe avalanche of data over the past 10-20 years has propelled cosmology into the “precision era”. The next challenge cosmology has to meet is to enter the era of accuracy. Because of the intrinsic nature of studying the Cosmos and the sheer amount of data available now and coming soon, the only way to meet this challenge is by developing ...

The discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012 and other results from the Large Hadron Collider have confirmed the standard model of particle physics as the correct theory of elementary particles and their interactions up to energies of several TeV. Remarkably, the theory may even remain valid all the way to the Planck scale of quantum gravity, and therefore

From Reductionism to Contextualism: L. Wittgenstein and the Dimensions of Modern Cosmology [PDF]
This article offers a consideration of potential ways to apply the methodology of the philosophy of everyday language to solve modern problems of cosmology and the philosophy of cosmology. Modern cosmology emerges as an independent scientific discipline,

When misinterpreting the Bible becomes a habit
Ancient Near Eastern (ANE) texts should be interpreted against the background of the magico-mythical cosmology of their time, and the Bible is no exception.

Cosmological observatories [PDF]
Abstract We study the static patch of de Sitter space in the presence of a timelike boundary. We impose that the conformal class of the induced metric and the trace of the extrinsic curvature, K, are fixed at the boundary. We present the thermodynamic structure of de Sitter space subject to these boundary conditions, for static and ...
