Dark matter represents currently an outstanding problem in both cosmology and particle physics. In this review we discuss the possible explanations for dark matter and the experimental observables which can eventually lead to the discovery of dark matter and its nature, and demonstrate the close interplay between the cosmological properties of the early Universe and the observables used to constrain dark matter models in the context of new physics beyond the Standard Model.

  1. Short Gravitational-Wave Transients as Probes of Cosmic Domain Walls

    gr-qc 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Two LIGO transients are consistent with domain wall signals from a shared scalar field but binary black hole models remain favored, with a morphological degeneracy identified.

  2. Dark Matter from Holography

    astro-ph.CO 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Holographic dark matter arises from the Ricci cutoff in a baryon-plus-radiation universe, matching observed densities and reversing the sign of pre-existing negative vacuum energy to match observations.

  3. Dark matter and modified gravity: Einstein clusters from a non-minimally coupled vector field

    gr-qc 2025-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A non-minimally coupled vector field reproduces Einstein cluster dynamics that account for flat galactic rotation curves.

  4. Conformal symmetry, SM and Gravity

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0

    A Weyl-invariant SM+mirror-dark-matter+gravity model is developed via algebraic renormalization; its conformal cohomology is claimed trivial, and the required counterterms could — the author concedes not conclusively ...

  5. Distance duality relation in symmetric teleparallel gravity

    gr-qc 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    In symmetric teleparallel f(Q) gravity with nonminimal EM-nonmetricity coupling, the distance duality relation is dynamically violated, yielding a generalized formula relating observational distances to the Hubble rate.

  6. LHC Mono-$W/Z$ Signatures as a Probe for Dark Matter Explanations of Astrophysical Excesses

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    LHC mono-W/Z searches with a new channel-separation method can exclude large ranges of neutral and charged mass splittings in the 70-75 GeV IDM dark matter scenario that fits astrophysical excesses.

  7. Cosmological Dynamics of a Non-Canonical Generalised Brans-Dicke Theory

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    A non-canonical generalized Brans-Dicke theory admits background cosmological solutions matching Lambda CDM characteristics for constant, power-law, and exponential potentials, with dynamics distinct from other scalar...

  8. Probing High-Quality Axions with Gravitational Waves

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    High-quality axion models with N_DW=1 and dark matter abundance requirement restrict the gauge breaking scale to 1.6e11-1e16 GeV, yielding a band of gravitational wave signals from two-step phase transitions consisten...

  9. Dark Matter Deficient Galaxies as Probes of Dark Matter

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0

    The separability condition εχ/εb ≤ μcrit/μi translates dark-matter-deficient galaxies into conditional constraints on dark-matter–baryon scattering, dissipative dark matter fractions, and fuzzy dark matter escape.

  10. Seasons of Dark Matter Freeze-In Shaped by the Weather of the Early Universe

    hep-ph 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Variations in pre-nucleosynthesis cosmology produce distinct seasons in the phase-space distribution of freeze-in dark matter, directly affecting its warmness and mass bounds.

  11. Formation of Asymmetrical Two-Brane Structure and its Possible Manifestation

    hep-th 2025-02 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    In a two-brane model, brane asymmetry produces different fermion masses, allowing superheavy leptons on the second brane to act as dark matter without fine-tuning.
