UC Davis mathematicians: dark energy unnecessary — gravity explains expansion

Mathematicians at the University of California, Davis have presented a mathematical proof challenging the standard cosmological model. They argue that the accelerating expansion of the universe can be derived directly from the equations of Einstein's general theory of relativity, with no need to invoke dark energy. If confirmed, the finding would require a fundamental revision of the current model of the universe.
