Basing on observational data supplied by projects such as those leaded by Perlmutter and Riess, we consider several models on DARK ENERGY. |
| Among these models, we study cosmic quintessence (Steinhardt), the Chaplygin gas and the phantom energy (Caldwell). | |
| We try to relate the Dark Energy models with the primordial inflation (Starobinsky, Vilenkin, etc.) and the theory of brane worlds. | |
| We consider as well the problem on dark energy from an astronomical standpoint (Turner). |
