Our picture of the Universe involves putting together ... The authors 1 find consistency with the standard cosmological model, with its flat geometry, and show that the dark energy is consistent ...

In our mind’s eye, the universe seems to go on forever. But using geometry we can explore a variety of three-dimensional shapes that offer alternatives to “ordinary” infinite space. When you gaze out ...

In a universe with an analogous, complex topology, you could travel across the cosmos and end up back where you started. Such a cosmos hasn’t yet been ruled out, physicists report in the April ...

the qubit’s behavior lines up with the way we describe spacetime using regular Euclidean geometry. To illustrate the theory, Fullwood and Vedral used a ‘toy model’ of a one-qubit universe.

A model of the cosmic web, showing luminous galaxies clustering where gas filaments ... Computer simulations reveal sub-voids containing their own cosmic webs, showing the richness and complexity of ...

Each gives a different value for the expansion rate. Szapudi's team developed a mathematical model of the universe. First, it followed standard rules. Then they added a tiny amount of rotation.

In my work, I propose another model to explain the present accelerated expansion of the universe. Unlike existing models, this does not require any form of dark energy or modified gravity approaches.
