Observational constraints on Luciano-Saridakis holographic dark energy

Matías Leizerovich, Susana J. Landau, Giuseppe Gaetano Luciano +2

Holographic dark energy (HDE) models provide a natural framework for linking gravitational thermodynamics to the late-time accelerated expansion of the Universe. In this work, we i…

Beyond dynamical dark energy: the role of dark sector interactions after DESI DR2

Weiqiang Yang, Sibo Zhang, Supriya Pan +2

Recent DESI DR2 observations have renewed interest in extensions of the CDM cosmological model, particularly through indications of a time-varying dark energy equation of state.…

The generalized second law as a thermodynamic selection criterion for dynamical dark energy

Marcos H. Cruz, Miguel Cruz, Joel Saavedra +1

The growing number of generalized horizon entropy proposals has led to a wide variety of modified cosmological models, yet there is currently no general physical principle capable…

Dark energy perturbations and the robustness of cosmological neutrino-mass constraints

Yu-Hang Yang, Emmanuel N. Saridakis, Yi-Fu Cai +1

Cosmological observations are placing increasingly stringent bounds on the sum of neutrino masses, approaching the lower limits implied by neutrino oscillation experiments. Recent…

Rotating traversable wormholes and particle dynamics in gravity

G. G. L. Nashed, Waleed El Hanafy, Amare Abebe +2

Traversable wormholes are among the most interesting solutions of gravitational theories, but within General Relativity they generally require exotic matter violating the null ener…

Cosmologically viable non-polynomial quasi-topological gravity: explicit models, CDM limit and observational constraints

Emmanuel N. Saridakis

We investigate the cosmological implications of non-polynomial quasi-topological gravity (NPQTG), a novel class of modified gravitational theories in which the background dynamics…

Accelerating scaling solutions from dark matter particle creation

Sudip Halder, Jaume de Haro, Supriya Pan +3

This article opens new window to obtain accelerating scaling attractors without any need of dark energy. We study cosmological dynamics in a two-fluid system where pressureless dar…

Primordial black hole formation from transient cosmology

Gerasimos Kouniatalis, Theodoros Papanikolaou, Spyros Basilakos +1

We study primordial black hole (PBH) formation in a minimally coupled teleparallel cosmology that generates a transient departure from standard radiation domination. The mod…

New modified cosmology from a new generalized entropy

G. G. Luciano, E. N. Saridakis

We develop new modified cosmological scenarios by applying the first law of thermodynamics at the Universe horizon, utilizing a new entropic functional that generalizes the standar…

Highly suppressed tensor-to-scalar ratio from a modified Lennard-Jones inflationary potential

Panagiotis G. Stavros, Spyros Basilakos, Emmanuel N. Saridakis

The increasingly stringent observational bounds on primordial gravitational waves strongly constrain inflationary model building, favoring scenarios that predict highly suppressed…

Chaotic imprints of dark matter in extreme mass-ratio inspirals

Mustapha Azreg-Aïnou, Mubasher Jamil, Emmanuel N. Saridakis

Extreme mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) are among the most powerful probes of strong-field gravity and of the environments surrounding supermassive compact objects. Motivated by the e…

A null test of the Hubble tension

Gerasimos Kouniatalis, Emmanuel N. Saridakis

The origin of the Hubble tension remains one of the central open problems in modern cosmology, with competing explanations invoking either early-Universe physics, late-time modific…

Ultra-fast growth of primordial black holes through radiative absorption

Dimitris S. Kallifatides, Theodoros Papanikolaou, Emmanuel N. Saridakis

We show that Schwarzschild primordial black holes (PBHs) formed in the radiation-dominated era can grow extremely rapidly through governed by the fu…

From Cosmology to Cosmonomy

Emmanuel N. Saridakis

For most of its history, cosmology was a qualitatively constrained discourse on the universe, shaped by limited observational access and the absence of global dynamical laws. This…

Topological and optical signatures of modified black-hole entropies

Ankit Anand, Kimet Jusufi, Spyros Basilakos +1

We investigate how deviations from the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy modify black-hole spacetimes through the recently proposed entropy-geometry correspondence. For four representativ…

Primordial black hole dark matter from ultra-slow-roll inflation in Horndeski gravity

Despina Totolou, Theodoros Papanikolaou, Emmanuel N. Saridakis

Primordial black holes (PBHs) provide a well-motivated non-particle candidate for dark matter, requiring an enhancement of curvature perturbations on small inflationary scales cons…
