Adiabatic Perturbations in GW170817-Compatible Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet Inflation

S. D. Odintsov, V. K. Oikonomou

We study the adiabaticity of the cosmological perturbations in the context of inflationary Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theories. We focus on viable inflationary Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet the…

ACT Data and Positive Running of the Spectral Index for Scalar Theory and Modified Gravity

S. D. Odintsov, V. K. Oikonomou

In this work we address the possibility of having a positive running of the spectral index in inflationary theories. The recent ACT data indicate mildly that the running of the spe…

Is Phantom Divide Crossing in General Relativity Completely Impossible? Shortcomings in canonical and minimally coupled scalar field and Possible Solutions in -essence Models

Shin'ichi Nojiri, S. D. Odintsov, V. K. Oikonomou

General relativity has its successes at the local astrophysical level, however, it seems to be insufficient in describing the Universe at large scales. In this work we investigate…

Apparent Phantom Crossing in Gauss-Bonnet Gravity

Shin'ichi Nojiri, Sergei D. Odintsov, V. K Oikonomou

The recent observations of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) indicated the possibility that the dark energy equation of state parameter might change from t…

Revisiting Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet Theories after GW170817

V. K. Oikonomou

In this work we study the inflationary framework of Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theories which produce a primordial gravitational wave speed that respects the constraint imposed by the G…

The Necessity of Multi-Band Observations of the Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background

S. D. Odintsov, V. K. Oikonomou

In this work we highlight an important perspective for the complete understanding of the stochastic gravitational background structure. The stochastic gravitational wave background…
