Applied Cosmography: A Pedagogical Review
by Yu. L. Bolotin, et al.
Publisher: arXiv.org 2018
Number of pages: 66
Description:
Based on the cosmological principle only, the method of describing the evolution of the Universe, called cosmography, is in fact a kinematics of cosmological expansion. The effectiveness of cosmography lies in the fact that it allows, based on the results of observations, to perform a rigid selection of models that do not contradict the cosmological principle.

Ekpyrotic and Cyclic Cosmologyby Jean-Luc Lehners - arXiv
Ekpyrotic and cyclic cosmologies provide theories of the very early and of the very late universe. In these models, the big bang is described as a collision of branes - and thus the big bang is not the beginning of time.

Cosmologyby V. A. Rubakov - arXiv.org
Cosmology and particle physics are deeply interrelated. Among the common problems are dark energy, dark matter and baryon asymmetry of the Universe. We discuss these problems in general terms, and concentrate on several particular hypotheses.
