We test the Yilmaz theory of gravitation by working out the corresponding Friedmann-type equations generated by assuming the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmological metrics. In the case that space is flat the theory is consistent only with either a completely empty universe or a negative energy vacuum that decays to produce a constant density of matter. In both cases the total energy remains zero at all times, and in the latter case the acceleration of the expansion is always negative. To obtain a more flexible and potentially more realistic cosmology, the equation of state relating the pressure and energy density of the matter creation process must be different from the vacuum, as for example is the case in the steady-state models of Gold, Bondi, Hoyle and others. The theory does not support the cosmological principle for curved space K =/= 0 cosmological metrics.

We investigate a cosmological model resulting from a dimensional reduction of the higher-dimensional dRGT massive gravity. By using the Kaluza-Klein dimensional reduction, we obtain an effective four-dimensional massive gravity theory with a scalar f
ield. It is found that the resulting theory corresponds to a combined description of mass-varying massive gravity and quasi-dilaton massive gravity. By analyzing the cosmological solution, we found that it is possible to obtain the late-time expansion of the universe due to the graviton mass. By using a dynamical system approach, we found regions of model parameters for which the late-time expansion of the universe is a stable fixed point. Moreover, this also provides a mechanism to stabilize the extra dimensions.
The main aim of this thesis is to reveal some interesting aspects of the purely affine theory of gravity and its cosmological implication. A particular attention will be devoted to its consequences when applied to cosmological inflation. Primarily, a
ffine spacetime, composed of geodesics with no notion of length and angle, accommodates gravity but not matter. The thesis study is expected to reveal salient properties of matter dynamics in affine spacetime and may reveal an intimate connection between vacuum state and metrical gravity. An interesting application of the framework is the inflationary regime, where it is shown that affine gravity prefers only a unique metric tensor such that the transition from nonminimal to minimal coupling of the inflaton is performed only via redefinition of the latter. This allows us to avoid the use of the so called conformal frames. In fact, unlike metric gravity, the metric tensor in affine gravity is generated and not postulated a priori, thus this tensor is absent in the actions and conformal transformation does not make sense. Last but not least, we try to show how metric gravity can be induced through a simple structure that contains only affine connection and scalar fields. General relativity arises classically only at the vacuum, and this view of gravity may be considered as a new way to inducing metric elasticity of space, not through quantum corrections as in standard induced gravity, but only classically. The thesis is concluded by analyzing affine gravity in a particular higher-dimensional manifold (product of two spaces) in an attempt to understand both, the cosmological constant and matter dynamically.
The nature of the scalar field responsible for the cosmological inflation, the qo{inflaton}, is found to be rooted in the most fundamental concept of the Weyls differential geometry: the parallel displacement of vectors in curved space-time. The Eule
r-Lagrange theory based on a scalar-tensor Weyl-Dirac Lagrangian leads straightforwardly to the Einstein equation admitting as a source the characteristic energy-momentum tensor of the inflaton field. Within the dynamics of the inflation, e.g. in the slow roll transition from a qo{false} toward a qo{true vacuum}, the inflatons geometry implies a temperature driven symmetry change between a highly symmetrical qo{Weylan} to a low symmetry qo{Riemannian} scenario. Since the dynamics of the Weyl curvature scalar, constructed over differentials of the inflaton field, has been found to account for the quantum phenomenology at the microscopic scale, the present work suggests interesting connections between the qo{micro} and the qo{macro} aspects of our Universe.
A detailed analysis of dynamics of cosmological models based on $R^{n}$ gravity is presented. We show that the cosmological equations can be written as a first order autonomous system and analyzed using the standard techniques of dynamical system the
ory. In absence of perfect fluid matter, we find exact solutions whose behavior and stability are analyzed in terms of the values of the parameter $n$. When matter is introduced, the nature of the (non-minimal) coupling between matter and higher order gravity induces restrictions on the allowed values of $n$. Selecting such intervals of values and following the same procedure used in the vacuum case, we present exact solutions and analyze their stability for a generic value of the parameter $n$. From this analysis emerges the result that for a large set of initial conditions an accelerated expansion is an attractor for the evolution of the $R^n$ cosmology. When matter is present a transient almost-Friedman phase can also be present before the transition to an accelerated expansion.
Astrophysics has given empirical evidence for the cosmological constant that accelerates the expansion of the universe. Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Physics has proven experimentally that the quantum vacuum exerts forces - the van der Waals and Cas
imir forces - on neutral matter. It has long been conjectured [Ya. B. Zeldovich, Usp. Fiz. Nauk 95, 209 (1968)] that the two empirical facts, the cosmological constant and the Casimir force, have a common theoretical explanation, but all attempts of deriving both from a unified theory in quantitative detail have not been successful so far. In AMO Physics, Lifshitz theory has been the standard theoretical tool for describing the measured forces of the quantum vacuum. This paper develops a version of Lifshitz theory that also accounts for the electromagnetic contribution to the cosmological constant. Assuming that the other fields of the Standard Model behave similarly, gives a possible quantum-optical explanation for what has been called dark energy.
