In this work, a bumblebee field is adopted in order to generate cosmological anisotropies. For that purpose, we assume a Bianchi I cosmology, as the background geometry, and a bumblebee field coupled to it. Bumblebee models are examples of a mechanism for the Lorentz symmetry violation by assuming a nonzero vacuum expectation value for the bumblebee field. When coupled to the Bianchi I geometry, which is not in agreement with a cosmological principle, the bumblebee field plays the role of a source of anisotropies and produces a preferred axis. Thus, a fraction of the cosmic anisotropies would come from the Lorentz symmetry violation. In the last part of the article, we try to assume an upper bound on the bumblebee field using the quadrupole and octopole moments of the cosmic microwave background radiation.

  1. Primordial black hole in Lorentz-violating theories: Insights from Bumblebee gravity

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    Bumblebee gravity enhances primordial black hole abundance through three mechanisms, but the model harbors a ghost instability and a tachyonic instability that make it cosmologically unviable.

  3. Complex bumblebee model

    hep-th 2026-03 accept novelty 6.0

    A complex bumblebee model is formulated with gauge and longitudinal couplings; one-loop RG functions are derived and the leading-log effective potential indicates possible dynamical Lorentz violation.

  4. Dynamic Aspects of Bumblebee Gravity: Post-Newtonian Approach

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Bumblebee gravity is self-consistent in PPN up to 1.5PN order only for λ = −ξ/2, producing non-zero α1, α2, a logarithmic U_B potential, and a pulsar-timing bound |ℓ| ≲ 1.6×10^{-9}.

  5. Cosmological implications of Bumblebee theory on an FLRW background

    gr-qc 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    Bumblebee theory on an FLRW background yields a cosmological model whose single free parameter is fitted to supernovae observations, producing deceleration and dark energy behaviors that are compared to Lambda-CDM.
