چکیده
Recent progress in understanding the structure of cosmological singularities is reviewed. The well-known picture due to Belinskii, Khalatnikov and Lifschitz (BKL) is summarized briefly and it is discussed what existing analytical and numerical results have to tell us about the validity of this picture. If the BKL description is correct then most cosmological singularities are complicated. However there are some cases where it predicts simple singularities. These cases should be particularly amenable to mathematical investigation and the results in this direction which have been achieved so far are described.

If the cosmological constant Λ can not be neglected, we will show in this short report, that graviton should have a rest mass mg = √ 2Λ = √ 2Λh̄c−1 different from zero.

This paper shows how to obtain the spinor field and dynamics from the vielbein and geometry of General Relativity. The spinor field is physically realized as an orthogonal transformation of the vielbein, and the spinor action enters as the requirement that the unit time form be the gradient of a scalar time field.

The Wheeler-DeWitt equation is solved for some scalar-tensor theories of gravitation in the case of homogeneous and isotropic cosmological models. We present general solutions corresponding to cosmological term: (i)λ(φ) = 0 and (ii)λ(φ) = qφ.
