We derive a model of dark energy which evolves with time via the scale factor. The equation of state $omega=(1-2alpha)/(1+2alpha)$ is studied as a function of a parameter $alpha$ introduced in this model. In addition to the recent accelerated expansion, the model predicts another decelerated phase. The age of the universe is found to be almost consistent with observation. In the limiting case, the cosmological constant model, we find that vacuum energy gravitates with a gravitational strength, different than Newtons constant. This enables degravitation of the vacuum energy which in turn produces the tiny observed curvature, rather than a 120 orders of magnitude larger value.

Based on Eddington affine variational principle on a locally product manifold, we derive the separate Einstein space described by its Ricci tensor. The derived field equations split into two field equations of motion that describe two maximally symme
tric spaces with two cosmological constants. We argue that the invariance of the bi-field equations under projections on the separate spaces, may render one of the cosmological constants to zero. We also formulate the model in the presence of a scalar field. The resulted separate Einstein-Eddington spaces maybe considered as two states that describe the universe before and after inflation. A possibly interesting affine action for a general perfect fluid is also proposed. It turns out that the condition which leads to zero cosmological constant in the vacuum case, eliminates here the effects of the gravitational mass density of the perfect fluid, and the dynamic of the universe in its final state is governed by only the inertial mass density of the fluid.
Self tuning is one of the few methods for dynamically cancelling a large cosmological constant and yet giving an accelerating universe. Its drawback is that it tends to screen all sources of energy density, including matter. We develop a model that t
empers the self tuning so the dynamical scalar field still cancels an arbitrary cosmological constant, including the vacuum energy through any high energy phase transitions, without affecting the matter fields. The scalar-tensor gravitational action is simple, related to cubic Horndeski gravity, with a nonlinear derivative interaction plus a tadpole term. Applying shift symmetry and using the property of degeneracy of the field equations we find families of functions that admit de Sitter solutions with expansion rates that are independent of the magnitude of the cosmological constant and preserve radiation and matter dominated phases. That is, the method can deliver a standard cosmic history including current acceleration, despite the presence of a Planck scale cosmological constant.
In the Kaluza-Klein model with a cosmological constant and a flux, the external spacetime and its dimension of the created universe from a $S^s times S^{n-s}$ seed instanton can be identified in quantum cosmology. One can also show that in the intern
al space the effective cosmological constant is most probably zero.
I discuss the dark energy characterized by the violation of the null energy condition ($varrho + p geq 0$), dubbed phantom. Amazingly, it is admitted by the current astronomical data from supernovae. We discuss both classical and quantum cosmological
models with phantom as a source of matter and present the phenomenon called phantom duality.
The cosmological constant $Lambda$ is usually interpreted as Dark Energy (DE) or modified gravity (MG). Here we propose instead that $Lambda$ corresponds to a boundary term in the action of classical General Relativity. The action is zero for a perfe
ct fluid solution and this fixes $Lambda$ to the average density $rho$ and pressure $p$ inside a primordial causal boundary: $Lambda = 4pi G <rho+3p>$. This explains both why the observed value of $Lambda$ is related to the matter density today and also why other contributions to $Lambda$, such as DE or MG, do not produce cosmic expansion. Cosmic acceleration results from the repulsive boundary force that occurs when the expansion reaches the causal horizon. This universe is similar to the $Lambda$CDM universe, except on the largest observable scales, where we expect departures from homogeneity/isotropy, such as CMB anomalies and variations in cosmological parameters indicated by recent observations.
