In this paper we present a survey of Fermat metrics and their applications to stationary spacetimes. A Fermat principle for light rays is stated in this class of spacetimes and we present a variational theory for the light rays and a description of the multiple image effect. Some results on variational methods, as Ljusternik-Schnirelmann and Morse Theory are recalled, to give a description of the variational methods used. Other applications of the Fermat metrics concern the global hyperbolicity and the geodesic connectedeness and a characterization of the Sagnac effect in a stationary spacetime. Finally some possible applications to other class of spacetimes are considered.

The goal of this paper is to study new cosmological models where the dark energy is a varying Chaplygin gas. This specific dark energy model with non-linear EoS had been often discussed in modern cosmology. Contrary to previous studies, we consider new forms of non-linear non-gravitational interaction between dark matter and assumed dark energy models. We applied the phase space analysis allowing understanding the late time behavior of the models. It allows demonstrating that considered non-gravitational interactions can solve the cosmological coincidence problem. On the other hand, we applied Bayesian Machine Learning technique to learn the constraints on the free parameters. In this way, we gained a better understanding of the models providing a hint which of them can be ruled out. Moreover, the learning based on the simulated expansion rate data shows that the models cannot solve the H0 tension problem.

Abstract We study Randall-Sundrum two brane setups with mismatched brane tensions. For the vacuum solutions, boundary conditions demand that the induced metric on each of the branes is either de Sitter, Anti-de Sitter, or Minkowski. For incompatible boundary conditions, the bulk metric is necessarily time-dependent. This introduces a new class of time-dependent solutions with the potential to address cosmological issues and provide alternatives to conventional inflationary (or contracting) scenarios. We take a first step in this paper toward such solutions. One important finding is that the resulting solutions can be very succinctly described in terms of an effective action involving only the induced metric on either one of the branes and the radion field. But the full geometry cannot necessarily be simply described with a single coordinate patch. We concentrate here on the time- dependent solutions but argue that supplemented with a brane stabilization mechanism one can potentially construct interesting cosmological models this way. This is true both with and without a brane stabilization mechanism.
