Scalar Field Cosmology

Overview

This monograph discusses cosmological inflation and provides exact and slow roll solutions. It also reviews new and advanced approaches of exact solutions construction with canonical scalar fields, including application of generating functions methods, the superpotential and many others.

Key Topics

This book presents the reduction of the Friedmann equation to the Abel equation, which is a very useful tool in cosmology. It offers new solutions and discusses its properties. Additionally, it touches upon the role of phantom scalar field cosmology and analyzes phantonical models.

Applications

It describes brane cosmology with scalar fields, providing exact solutions construction using the superpotential method as well as Darboux transformations. This book provides detailed calculations throughout.
