Alleviating the cosmological constant problem from particle production

A Belfiglio, R Giambo, O Luongo - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We explore a toy model mechanism of geometric cancellation, alleviating the (classical)
cosmological constant problem. To do so, we assume at primordial times that vacuum …

Particle production from non-minimal coupling in a symmetry breaking potential transporting vacuum energy

A Belfiglio, Y Carloni, O Luongo - Physics of the Dark Universe, 2024 - Elsevier
We propose an inflationary scenario where the inflaton field is non-minimally coupled to
spacetime curvature and inflation is driven by a vacuum energy symmetry breaking potential …

Dark Coincidences: Small-Scale Solutions with Refracted Gravity and MOND

V Cesare - Universe, 2023 - mdpi.com
General relativity and its Newtonian weak field limit are not sufficient to explain the observed
phenomenology in the Universe, from the formation of large-scale structures to the dynamics …

Effective models of nonsingular quantum black holes

M Cadoni, M Oi, AP Sanna - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
We investigate how the resolution of the singularity problem for the Schwarzschild black
hole could be related to the presence of quantum gravity effects at horizon scales. Motivated …

[HTML][HTML] Extended uncertainty principle black holes

JR Mureika - Physics Letters B, 2019 - Elsevier
Abstract An Extended Uncertainty Principle inspired Schwarzschild metric that allows for
large scale modifications to gravitation is presented. At a new fundamental length scale L⁎ …

MOND-like fractional Laplacian theory

A Giusti - Physical Review D, 2020 - APS
I provide a derivation of some characteristic effects of Milgrom's modified Newtonian
dynamics (MOND) from a fractional version of Newton's theory based on the fractional …

de Sitter space as a Glauber-Sudarshan state

S Brahma, K Dasgupta, R Tatar - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 - Springer
A bstract Glauber-Sudarshan states, sometimes simply referred to as Glauber states, or
alternatively as coherent and squeezed-coherent states, are interesting states in the …

Unified superfluid dark sector

EGM Ferreira, G Franzmann, J Khoury… - … of Cosmology and …, 2019 - iopscience.iop.org
We present a novel theory of a unified dark sector, where late-time cosmic acceleration
emerges from the dark matter superfluid framework. The system is described by a superfluid …
