Einstein and Rastall theories of gravitation in comparison
We profit by a recent paper of Visser claiming that Rastall gravity is equivalent to Einstein gravity to compare the two gravitational theories in a general way. Our conclusions are different from Visser’s ones.

Does a Theory of Everything Exist?
Since Einstein’s failure to define a Grand Unified Theory, physicists have pursued a comprehensive theory explaining nature, a Theory of Everything. But because General Relativity, Quantum Field Theory, and Cosmology have little in common, defining one ...

$$f(\mathcal {G})$$ f(G) Noether cosmology
We develop the n-dimensional cosmology for $$f(\mathcal {G})$$ f(G) gravity, where $$\mathcal {G}$$ G is the Gauss–Bonnet topological invariant. Specifically, by the so-called Noether Symmetry Approach, we select $$f(\mathcal {G})\simeq \mathcal {G}^k ...

DeWitt boundary condition is consistent in Hořava-Lifshitz quantum gravity
In quantum cosmology the DeWitt boundary condition is a proposal to set the wave function of the universe to vanish at the classical big-bang singularity.

It was recently shown that the homogeneous and isotropic cosmology of a massless scalar field coupled to general relativity exhibits a new hidden conformal invariance under Mobius transformation of the proper time, additionally to the invariance under ...

Minisuperspace Quantum Cosmology in Metric and Affine Theories of Gravity
Minisuperspace Quantum Cosmology is an approach by which it is possible to infer initial conditions for dynamical systems which can suitably represent observable and non-observable universes. Here we discuss theories of gravity which, from various points

Analytical investigation of pre-inflationary effects in the primordial power spectrum: from General Relativity to hybrid Loop Quantum Cosmology [PDF]
This work is an analytical study of the main differences between classical inflationary effects of a fast-roll regime and imprints of hybrid Loop Quantum Cosmology (LQC) on the primordial power spectrum. Effective LQC solutions of phenomenological interest typically contain a classical period of kinetic dominance prior to slow-roll inflation, with ...

Dark Energy Problem, Physics of Early Universe and Some New Approaches in Gravity
The dark energy problem is studied based on the approach associated with the cosmological term in General Relativity that is considered as a dynamic quantity.

Complex Riemannian Spacetime and Singularity-Free Black Holes and Cosmology
An approach is presented to address singularities in general relativity using a complex Riemannian spacetime extension. We demonstrate how this method can be applied to both black hole and cosmological singularities, specifically focusing on the ...
