Non-Minimally Coupled Chain Inflation at High Scales

Miguel Barroso Varela, Orfeu Bertolami, Katherine Freese +1

The paper investigates how a non‑minimal coupling between a scalar field and gravity modifies chain inflation, affecting tunneling rates, the scalar spectral index, and producing a…

On dark sector scalar field theories driven by cosmological -fields

Alex E. Bernardini, Orfeu Bertolami

The interplay of Hoyle-Narlikar (HN) creation field cosmology and scalar field models for the dark sector, including the generalized Chaplygin Gas (GCG), is investigated . Though o…

Cosmological and lunar laser ranging constraints on evolving dark energy in a nonminimally coupled curvature-matter gravity model

Riccardo March, Miguel Barroso Varela, Orfeu Bertolami +3

We analyze a cosmological solution to the field equations of a modified gravity model where curvature and matter are nonminimally coupled. The current Universe's accelerated expans…

Accretion of Generalized Chaplygin Gas onto Cosmologically Coupled Black Holes

Luis F. Reis, Mario C. Baldiotti, Orfeu Bertolami

We study the accretion of cosmic dark fluids, responsible for driving the accelerated expansion of the universe, onto cosmologically coupled black holes. More specifically, we focu…

Toda-like Hamiltonian as a probe for quantized prey-predator dynamics

Alex E. Bernardini, Orfeu Bertolami

Phase-space features of a reduced version of the Toda-like Hamiltonian, , written in a form constrained by the condition $\partial^2 \mathcal{H} / \partial x \p…

Inflationary dynamics of non-minimally coupled matter-curvature theories

Miguel Barroso Varela, Orfeu Bertolami, Andreas Mantziris

This study examines how inflationary dynamics are affected by theories with a non-minimal coupling between matter and curvature. Both positive and negative corrections to th…
