Cosmology without inflation [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2008 We propose a new cosmological paradigm in which our observed expanding phase is originated from an initially large contracting Universe that subsequently experienced a bounce. This category of models, being geodesically complete, is non-singular and horizon-free, and can be made to prevent any relevant scale to ever have been smaller than the Planck ...

Relativistic Cosmology with an Introduction to Inflation [PDF]
Universe, 2021 In this review article, the study of the development of relativistic cosmology and the introduction of inflation in it as an exponentially expanding early phase of the universe is carried out.

Inflation and Fractional Quantum Cosmology
Fractal and Fractional, 2022 The Wheeler–DeWitt equation for a flat and compact Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker cosmology at the pre-inflation epoch is studied in the contexts of the standard and fractional quantum cosmology.

Inflation in multidimensional quantum cosmology [PDF]
Physical Review D, 1996 We extend to multidimensional cosmology Vilenkin's prescription of tunnelling from nothing for the quantum origin of the observable Universe. Our model consists of a $D+4$-dimensional spacetime of topology ${\cal R}\times {\cal S}^3 \times{\cal S}^D$, with a scalar field (``chaotic inflaton'') for the matter component.

Constraining barrow entropy-based cosmology with power-law inflation [PDF]
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023 We study the inflationary era of the Universe in a modified cosmological scenario based on the gravity-thermodynamics conjecture with Barrow entropy instead of the usual Bekenstein–Hawking one.

Inflation in Gauss-Bonnet brane cosmology [PDF]
, 2003 The effect of including a Gauss-Bonnet contribution in the bulk action is investigated within the context of the steep inflationary scenario. When inflation is driven by an exponential inflaton field, this Gauss-Bonnet term allows the spectral index of ...

Cosmological parameters in noncommutative inflation [PDF]
Physics Letters B, 2004 We investigate how the uncertainty of noncommutative spacetime could explain the WMAP data. For this purpose, the spectrum is divided into the IR and UV region. We introduce a noncommutative parameter of $ _0$ in the IR region and a noncommutative parameter of $ _0$ in the UV region.

Cosmology, inflation, and the physics of nothing [PDF]
, 2003 These four lectures cover four topics in modern cosmology: the cosmological constant, the cosmic microwave background, inflation, and cosmology as a probe of physics at the Planck scale. The underlying theme is that cosmology gives us a unique window on the ``physics of nothing,'' or the quantum-mechanical properties of the vacuum.

Onset of inflation in inhomogeneous cosmology [PDF]
Physical Review D, 1997 We study how the initial inhomogeneities of the universe affect the onset of inflation in the closed universe. We consider the model of a chaotic inflation which is driven by a massive scalar field. In order to construct an inhomogeneous universe model, we use the long wavelength approximation ( the gradient expansion method ). We show the condition of
