An Issue to the Cosmological Constant Problem [PDF]
According to general relativity, the present analysis shows on geometrical grounds that the cosmological constant problem is an artifact due to the unfounded link of this fundamental constant to vacuum energy density of quantum fluctuations.

Towards inhomogeneous loop quantum cosmology: triangulating Bianchi IX with perturbations
This brief article sums up results obtained in arXiv:0911.2653, which develops a constrained SU(2) lattice gauge theory in the "dipole" approximation.

Aspects of Cosmic Inflation in Expanding Bose-Einstein Condensates
Phonons in expanding Bose-Einstein condensates with wavelengths much larger than the healing length behave in the same way as quantum fields within a universe undergoing an accelerated expansion. This analogy facilitates the application of many tools and

Loop quantum gravity and the CMB: toward pre-Big Bounce cosmology [PDF]
This brief article sums up the possible imprints of loop quantum gravity effects on the cosmological microwave background. We focus on semi-classical terms and show that "Big Bounce" corrections, together with the "pre Big Bounce" state, could modify the observed spectrum.

Quantum suppression of the generic chaotic behavior close to cosmological singularities
In classical general relativity, the generic approach to the initial singularity is very complicated as exemplified by the chaos of the Bianchi IX model which displays the generic local evolution close to a singularity.

Darkness without dark matter and energy – generalized unimodular gravity
We suggest a Lorentz non-invariant generalization of the unimodular gravity theory, which is classically equivalent to general relativity with a locally inert (devoid of local degrees of freedom) perfect fluid having an equation of state with a constant ...

Aspects of Cosmological Relativity [PDF]
We review cosmological relativity, a new special theory of relativity that was recently developed for cosmology, and discuss in detail some of its aspects.

The Moore–Penrose algorithm provides a generalized notion of an inverse, applicable to degenerate matrices. In this paper, we introduce a covariant extension of the Moore–Penrose method that permits to deal with general relativity involving complex non ...

Parity violating models based on the symmetric teleparallel gravity have been considered in the literature, but their applications in cosmology and especially the features in cosmological perturbations have not been fully explored.
