Cosmology has been transformed by dramatic progress in high-precision observations and theoretical modelling. This book surveys key developments and open issues for graduate students and researchers. Using a relativistic geometric approach, it focuses on the general concepts and relations that underpin the standard model of the Universe.

Republication of: Relativistic cosmology
General Relativity and Gravitation, 2012This is a reprinting of the paper by Howard Percy Robertson, first published in 1933 in Rev. Mod. Phys., that is a very authoritative summary of relativistic cosmology at the stage at which it was up to 1933. The paper has been selected by the Editors of General Relativity and Gravitation for re-publication in the Golden Oldies series of the journal ...

On the stochasticity in relativistic cosmology
Journal of Statistical Physics, 1985It was shown earlier by I. M. Lifshitz and two of us that the evolution of the relativistic cosmological models towards the singularity undergoes spontaneous stochastization.(1) In the present paper it is shown that the statistical parameters of this evolution can be calculated in an exact manner. From the point of view of the general ergodic theory we

Republication of: Relativistic cosmology
General Relativity and Gravitation, 2009This is a republication of a paper by G.F.R. Ellis first published in Proceedings of the International School of Physics: General Relativity and Cosmology, 1971, in which he formulated the framework for relativistic cosmology with an arbitrary background geometry.

Relativistic Cosmology for Astrophysicists
1983My aim in these lectures is to provide that background information about modern mathematical work in relativistic cosmology which I feel astrophysicsts should know. It is thus a personal selection (though it omits certain things I might have said had I not known that Dr Centrella would ably say them).

Abstract Chapter 24 introduces the field of cosmology. It starts by considering Olber’s paradox and then constructs a simple Newtonian cosmology model. It then discusses the cosmological principle and Weyl’s postulate as assumptions that go into formulating relativistic cosmology.

The quest for the size of the universe in early relativistic cosmology (1917–1930)
, 2011Before the discovery of the expanding universe, one of the challenges faced in early relativistic cosmology was the determination of the finite and constant curvature radius of space-time by using astronomical observations.

Cosmological perturbations of a relativistic condensate
Physical Review D, 1995Based on a model of the early Universe with a relativistic Bose-Einstein condensate as the source of inflationary expansion, we calculate the gauge-invariant measure of the cosmological density perturbations caused by the zero-point fluctuations and excitations of the condensate.

Physics Today, 1967
SOME OF THE MOST exciting recent developments in physics have been in the realms of the very small and the very large. Chief among the latter was the discovery of “quasars,” which has quadrupled our depth penetration of the universe (if quasars are where most astronomers think they are), and which has also stimulated the possibly irrelevant but ...
