Generalized Fibonacci numbers, cosmological analogies, and an invariant
Valerio Faraoni, Farah Atieh
Continuous generalizations of the Fibonacci sequence satisfy ODEs that are formal analogues of the Friedmann equation describing spatially homogeneous and isotropic cosmology in ge…

Cosmological analogies, Lagrangians, and symmetries for convective-radiative heat transfer
Valerio Faraoni, Farah Atieh, Steve Dussault
A formal analogy between the Friedmann equation of relativistic cosmology and models of convective-radiative cooling/heating of a body (including Newton's, Dulong-Petit's, Newton-S…

Turning a Newtonian analogy for FLRW cosmology into a relativistic problem
Valerio Faraoni, Farah Atieh
A Newtonian uniform ball expanding in empty space constitutes a common heuristic analogy for FLRW cosmology. We discuss possible implementations of the corresponding general-relati…
