The phase space analysis of cosmological parameters $Omega_{phi}$ and $gamma_{phi}$ is given. Based on this, the well-known quintessence cosmology is studied with an exponential potential $V(phi)=V_{0}exp(-lambdaphi)$. Given observational data, the current state of universe could be pinpointed in the phase diagrams, thus making the diagrams more informative. The scaling solution of quintessence usually is not supposed to give the cosmic accelerating expansion, but we prove it could educe the transient acceleration. We also find that the differential equations of system used widely in study of scalar field are incomplete, and then a numerical method is used to figure out the range of application.

By allowing torsion into the gravitational dynamics one can promote the cosmological constant, $Lambda$, to a dynamical variable in a class of quasi-topological theories. In this paper we perform a mini-superspace quantization of these theories in the connection representation. If $Lambda$ is kept fixed, the solution is a delta-normalizable version of the Chern-Simons (CS) state, which is the dual of the Hartle and Hawking and Vilenkin wave-functions. We find that the CS state solves the Wheeler-DeWitt equation also if $Lambda$ is rendered dynamical by an Euler quasi-topological invariant, {it in the parity-even branch of the theory}. In the absence of an infra-red (IR) cut-off, the CS state suggests the marginal probability $P(Lambda)=delta(Lambda)$. Should there be an IR cutoff (for whatever reason) the probability is sharply peaked at the cut off. In the parity-odd branch, however, we can still find the CS state as a particular (but not most general) solution, but further work is needed to sharpen the predictions. For the theory based on the Pontryagin invariant (which only has a parity-odd branch) the CS wave function no longer is a solution to the constraints. We find the most general solution in this case, which again leaves room for a range of predictions for $Lambda$.
In the context of generalised Brans-Dicke cosmology we use the Killing tensors of the minisuperspace in order to determine the unspecified potential of a scalar-tensor gravity theory. Specifically, based on the existence of contact symmetries of the field equations, we find four types of potentials which provide exactly integrable dynamical systems. We investigate the dynamical properties of these potentials by using a critical point analysis and we find solutions which lead to cosmic acceleration and under specific conditions we can have de-Sitter points as stable late-time attractors.
The $f(T,T_G)$ class of gravitational modification, based on the quadratic torsion scalar $T$, as well as on the new quartic torsion scalar $T_G$ which is the teleparallel equivalent of the Gauss-Bonnet term, is a novel theory, different from both $f(T)$ and $f(R,G)$ ones. We perform a detailed dynamical analysis of a spatially flat universe governed by the simplest non-trivial model of $f(T,T_G)$ gravity which does not introduce a new mass scale. We find that the universe can result in dark-energy dominated, quintessence-like, cosmological-constant-like or phantom-like solutions, according to the parameter choices. Additionally, it may result to a dark energy - dark matter scaling solution, and thus it can alleviate the coincidence problem. Finally, the analysis at infinity reveals that the universe may exhibit future, past, or intermediate singularities depending on the parameters.
The exploration of teleparallel gravity has been done from a dynamical systems point of view in order to be tested against the cosmological evolution currently observed. So far, the proposed autonomous systems have been restrictive over a constant dynamical variable, which contains information related to the dynamics on the $H_0$ value. It is therefore that in this paper we consider a generalization of the dynamical system by imposing a nonconstant degree of freedom over it which allows us to rewrite a generic autonomous dynamical analysis. We describe the treatment of our nonlinear autonomous system by studying the hyperbolic critical points and discuss an interesting phenomenological feature in regards to $H_0$: the possibility to obtain a best-fit value for this parameter in a cosmologically viable $f(T,B)$ model, a mixed power law. This result allows us to present a generic scenario in which it is possible to fix constraints to solve the $H_0$ tension at late times where its linearized solutions are considered.

We study flat FLRW $alpha$-attractor $mathrm{E}$- and $mathrm{T}$-models by introducing a dynamical systems framework that yields regularized unconstrained field equations on two-dimensional compact state spaces. This results in both illustrative figures and a complete description of the entire solution spaces of these models, including asymptotics. In particular, it is shown that observational viability, which requires a sufficient number of $e$-folds, is associated with a solution given by a one-dimensional center manifold of a past asymptotic de Sitter state, where the center manifold structure also explains why nearby solutions are attracted to this `inflationary attractor solution. A center manifold expansion yields a description of the inflationary regime with arbitrary analytic accuracy, where the slow-roll approximation asymptotically describes the tangency condition of the center manifold at the asymptotic de Sitter state.
